UNICORN MAGIC

"UNICORN FREAKING MAGIC!" was what i started thinking when i sat down to do my nails...Today's challenge from PCF spring challenge.
Slowly but surely i went through all my glitter, and picked out the best unicorn ones. then i picked out a pale pink, you know, cause that's what color unicorns are. then i thought, what if i did a chevron, that's sort of a unicorn horn shape? and I SORT OF forgot to add the glitter. (how do you forget about the glitter?!) but it's still magical to me. enjoy the fun....!

OR Lilac, whatever, whatever, i do what i want! okay, okay, okay okay. This... did not turn out how i wanted it to. but it turned out kinda funky, and fun. let me tell you what i did to make this fun little lilac mess.

Base color of Barry M Berry Icecream (best everrrrr!!) 

step two, take Julep's Anne and add some swipes.

step three mix together Anne with some white, add a few more random strokes.
step four is to realize it looks nothing like what you wanted, and throw some giant party flakies on top for good measure.

and it's time to take it off. thanks for reading!!! :D

Fashion inspiration to the max

Hello! I've had a bunch of fashion inspiration pics saved in my 'liked' section on pintrest for a while and finally decided to give one a try. i can not tell you who made the dress or anything about it, because it links back to a trumblr, and that is the most confusion blog site i've ever been on.

I LOVE the colors, did my best to pick some matching colors out of my polish collection.

Those triangles were a doozy!


fun stuff! not my best stuff, but it's always fun to try something different.
i'm always tempted to just do a half moon or paint some leopards on my nails, but these new outline or framed nails are a fun challenge!

PCFS: Tiny flowers

Today's challenge was tiny flowers! isn't that such a sweet idea?


I tried to use a tutorial for a new kind of little flower, but i was rushed for time, and couldn't get it to look just how i wanted it. the flower on my index finger came out the closest to being right.

pretty fun!

PCFSC: Favorite Spring Pink!

Today i'm showing you my favorite spring pink. this is kind of funny, because i just bought this mini Orly at a bargain basement place, and the name is complete rubbed off! So it's my favorite, but i have no idea what the name of it is.
Place your bets and best guesses here folks! step right up to the comment box!!



Glass Pink's shimmer is so pretty! 
my nails are all different shapes, i know. i will work on it.
NEED MORE TIME TO DO NAILS!!!!


Base of the unknown Orly Pink, with a coat of Sinful Colors Glass Pink.
(I just picked up GP for 99 cents at walgreens, yay for sales and bargain basements!)

pretty little purple thing

I had a little fun the other day with stamping and some tape. Yes i have a bunch of new stamping plates, and yes i used the very first one i ever got that everyone uses, Konad m57. a classic? sure, why not.

Base coas of Orly Charged Up, the perfect purple jelly :)

but wait, what's that over Charged Up, it's CND Sapphire Sparkle, ooh ahhh!!

Okay then I taped off my sections, slapped on some black nail polish,
and then stamped my little heart out.

You don't really need to know this, but for the sake of good blogging i will tell you that i was inspired by a certain item from victoria secret to do these patterns/colors together. there. i said it. please tell me you've done this before too! 

PS. after i did my nails i realized i was out of acetone. so i went to buy some, and the store was all out. so this here is what you get when that happens. sorry for the mess!

PPS i'm selling some nail polish, among other things on ebay, check it out. fund my summer vacation.
