1 year down, a BILLION to go!

Tomorrow is my 1 year wedding anniversary with the best husband a girl could ask for. We are going to get sushi to celebrate and so of course I need celebration nails! I am currently obsessed with Finger Paint Pretty as a Portrait and OPI Fairy Dust so I HAD to do a mani using both.

I started out with Pretty as a Portrait as my base color then applied one coat of Fairy Dust on top for a little sparkle. I then stamped a very pretty floral pattern using Bundle Monster BM11 image plate.

I used Sally Hansen Silver Sweep for the image. I liked the idea of having the sparkle behind the flowers instead of over them. It creates some depth.

What do you think? I like it pretty well. I started the night intending to do Art Deco Chevron nails but... my scotch tape was being rude. lol

This picture definitely doesn't do these polishes justice. :-( I'm working on making my pictures better!

Here's a look at my work station after I was finished... Notice my husband playing FIFA on the XBOX in the background. Haha. He's the best.

Black Friday is LONG GONE!

Hows it going? I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Work is still intense so I can only do my nails about once every 6 days. :-(

Just a quick post.

I recently acquired some fabulous polishes by Finger Paints. They are beautiful!!! I did know much about the brand when I bought them but they seem to be of very good quality. I did a quick scotch tape look with 2 of the 3 I purchased:

I need some practice on taking pictures of my nails. I'm not very good at it. 

Base color: Pretty as a Portrait 

Top Glitter color: Hue Left a Message?

I've put A LOT of nail art stuff on my Christmas list! Cross your fingers I get some!

I'm trying hard not to resist the joy!

That song has been stuck in my head for three days straight!

So I didn't forget or give up on nail art. I have been working NON STOP. Seriously, I don't even know what day it is. Unfortunately work has also taken a toll on my nails. They are not as long or as healthy anymore, but I am determined to get them back!

Tomorrow my husband and I are going to see his high school best friend perform in SHREK! the Musical. Afterwards we are going out for drinks with some old friends. Naturally I decided that I needed to do some awesome nail art to show off my mad skills. So here's what I came up with....

I used the floral vine patter from bundle monster image plate BM16:

My base color is SinfulColors Cream Pink , for the stamp I used SinfulColors Black on Black and for the dots I used Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Silver Sweep. My top coat is always Seche Vite, its WONDERFUL. 

The final GLORIOUS product:

Every new look I make is always my favorite. Including this one!!

I hope you like it!!!
