Splosh Splash

For the next Cheeky Girl Challenge, we got CH46. This cosmic plate got a twist on it this time.
I had a fantastic idea, I'm not so sure about the execution of it, but ... All is fair in love and nail art?

I wanted a dark background and so a gradient stamping, using a white and a yellow, letting the stamp on each nail, get more and more towards the yellow.
Sadly, the yellow didn't stamp well.

I used: Miss Sporty - 453
So if you ever wondered .. well ... here is the result.

Head over here, to see what Mishka from Lacquer or Leave Her! did with the design.

Field Marigolds

This is a belated twinpost with Mishka. It's from the Cheeky (Summer Collection) CH44 plate.
The image we choose looks like marigolds to me, so I had to go for something yellow.

This is not like me at all, I don't have that many yellows, and I hardly use them. It must be the Easter-feel coming over me. Funny enough. So did Mishka. So this twinpost will be featuring the same stamping plate, and both are using yellow. How cool is that?!

For this manicure I used Miss Sporty - 453. A pastel-y yellow.
I used 3 coats, as the first 2 coats went on a bit streaky.

I have decided to go back to keeping my nails short. As I am mountain hiking and climbing 1-2 times a week, they then to get in the way of a good grip, and breaking them while on the top of a mountain, is just not the way to go. 

I was trying to find some pretty yellow flowers for this post while hiking over Craven Arms, and I came over these.

But you didn't come here to look at flowers. Let's have a look at the manicure. I used Kicks MakeUp Nail Polish - Metro Gray. Here it is! To see what Mishka did with the image, you can find here manicure by clicking here. 

Easter Nails - A skittle adventure

Happy Happy Easter.
And here are some happy nails. I started out with 3 coats of pastel yellow, this is Miss Sporty - 453.

I made this manicure using a set of stamping plates.

Index finger: BM 310
Long finger: BM 317
Ring finger: BM 208 and BM 314
Little finger: Mash 45

Stamped using Wet n Wild - Black Creme, as always. Then I took a green nail art pen and dabbed in some jagged lines on the ring finger, and added some more depth to the grass and the egg on the thumb.

Easter Nails

Let's get ready with some Easter Nails.
I decided to do some Easter nail, cause I have all these great plates with images that would be great for Easter, and if I don't use them now, when?
Right?


I started out with 3 coats of Miss Sporty - 453. I went googling around to see if anyone had used this polish before, and came back with surprisingly few results. So I decided that it was time. The world need more pastel yellows. This might not be your favorite yellow, but it's a yellow, and deserve some Easter happiness.
.. and it was the best yellow I could find in my stash.

Note to self: Get the perfect pastel Yellow.

Any takers?

I stamped using Bundlemonster, and ended up using BM 322, using MakeupMekka - Strawberry Daiquiri.
