Color Theme: Green

In continuation of my Color Theme series, here is Green! I started off with Zoya Mitzi and then put a coat of shear shimmery green on top. I wanted the lime green color, but I wanted shimmer to it, that is why I chose to use to polishes as a base. Next, using a dotting tool ,created a 5 petal flower in white. After that, I used a dark green and the same dotting tool to do the centers. This is a very simple and easy design that I hope you all like. Here is a tutorial if you are interested:

See you later long nails!

That's right, my nails are short. or as short as I'm willing to go. Also if you notice, they are round. I have a reason for this. As I told you guys a couple weeks ago, I was going to cut my nails. Many of you probably don't know, but I am on a committee that organizes the Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Walk in my area. I have been part of this for about half my life and I enjoy it every year. The day before the walk as well right after the walk, the committee and some volunteers set up/take down boxes of materials as also tables that are used for various things. Everything is pretty heavy and nails can easily break. Last year my nails were a bit longer then they are right now and I broke two. So, this year I decided to cut them a bit shorter and round them out so that the edges of the tips wont catch on anything. Also, shorter nails will just make everything easier and less stressful for me on those days. After the walk is over I will grow my nails long again and square them out. I was not planning on cutting them until next weekend, but yesterday morning, I broke 3 of them! Guess something/someone was telling me it was time. LOL. 

Easter Nails!

Easter is just a few days away so I wanted to get this cute and easy design up. I hope you love it as much as I do! You can use so many different colors on this design and make it your own, with poka-dots or stripes. anything you want to add to the egg shells. I personally like them plain  like this better though. Here is the video:

Let me know if you try them, I always enjoy seeing what others do with the designs.

Happy St.Patty's Day!

To celebrate I did a coat of CG Fairy Dust and then a diagonal tip of CG Holly-Day and used L.A.Colors Art Deco in Gold Glitter to line the top of the green. then I decided to use some gold glitter ( Jo-Ann Craft Essentials Glitter) to form a 3-leaf clover and finished it off with Jesse's Girl Fools gold for the stem. Hope you Like! Unfortunately, I didn't put enough top coat or something, so on my pinky, it is missing a leaf. I didn't notice until after I took the picture. Don't worry, it is fixed now, and more top coat was added! I am using a different camera today so the pictures are a little bigger, I think. Please let me know what you think!

Dalek Nails!

I did my first set of fake (plastic) nails last night! they are for a my sisters cosplay, she is going to Anime Boston next month. She will be going as the human version of a Dalek, and she wanted her nails done. but as we live hours away and she can not have polish on her nails for work. we decided to go with plastic nails. Her costume is gold with brown "dots" so she chose to have the opposite on her nails. These took me 3 hours to do! but they look awesome! I used Jesse's Girl - Riff Raff and gold craft glitter. Unfortunately, as it was 12:30 in the morning when I finished, I could not get a good photo and she was leaving this morning. So here is the best photo I could take and a quick video so you can see it better. If she can send me a better picture, I will update this post!

UPDATE:

Today is the first day of Anime Boston. My sister just sent me this picture and I wanted to share!

Color Theme: Yellow

This one was hard to come up with. I don't have very many yellows, so I decided to use gold as well, as I felt it still fell in the yellow category. It is a unique design that I hope most, if not all, of you like!

And here is the video Tutorial, it is very easy!

Color Theme: Orange

For the 2nd color theme nail design, we have... Tiger Stripes!  I really love these, and I hope you do too.
