Just a Quickie : Christmas Patchwork Nails

Once again, I'm posting in the wee hours of the morning because I didn't get home until midnight. These could definitely look better but I honestly didn't want to spend the extra time. But I still like them enough to post.

Polishes Used:

Sally Hansen Celeb City

Cult Nails Flash

Nina Ultra Pro Hot Date

31DC2016 Day 25 - Inspired by Fashion

I always enjoy this prompt in the challenge. I usually choose a Betsey Johnson design to base a mani on but I wanted to do something different this time around. I chose a design from Arthur Arbesser's 2017 Spring ready-to-wear line.

Tumblr Milestone

I'm back! It's been a while but I'm back! Yay!

Not too long ago, I reached 1,000 followers on Tumblr! It's a small milestone for some but I'm pretty excited. To celebrate my little milestone, I thought I'd do a Tumblr themed manicure. I wanted to keep the design fairly simple and I'm seriously digging how it turned out.

Bright Blobbicure

I have had a crazy couple of weeks. Hubby and I spent a week down in Tennessee visiting my family, staying with my litter sister in her new home. We had so much fun. We came home to Michigan and the very next morning, hubby and I woke up sicker than dogs. I'm still sick now, a full week later. I'm very slowly getting better but I am beyond ready to be over this! 

For today's nail design I used a new polish that I got from my bestie for my birthday last month. :)

31DC2015 Day 29 - Inspired by the Supernatural

For today's prompt, instead of choosing a supernatural inspiration, I created a design based around the show Supernatural. Specifically, around my favorite character from the show, Castiel. Now, Cas is an angel and I think that qualifies as a supernatural being, so I still qualify, right? :) 

If you've never watched Supernatural and/or you aren't familiar with Castiel, this design will make no sense to you. Sorry.

31DC2015 Days 23-28 : Yikes!

I fell a little behind in the challenge. Six days behind. It wasn't for no reason though. Life got in the way and the challenge had to take a backseat. It's okay though, because you know what I did? I did a nail art marathon and knocked out all six designs! Wahoo! I may have rushed through some of the designs and they aren't my best work, I'll be honest. But some of them turned out great and I loved them. So, let's get into this because this is going to be a loooong post!

31DC2015 Day 22 - Inspired by a Song

I spent the week before the challenge started AND the duration of the challenge up to this point with the exact song inspiration I wanted to use in mind. Then, today, the time came to do my nails and I changed my mind. Who know why my brain works the way that it works. Anyway, I chose a new song. I picked Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple. This song popped into my head and I instantly thought of this tutorial by Sarah at Chalkboard Nails. I have tried this tutorial so many times and have never gotten it to work for me. I was determined to get it working this time around. 

31DC2015 Day 10 - Gradient Nails

I love gradient nail day. That's because I love gradients. I will be completely honest, gradients are ALWAYS the first thing I want to do when I sit down to do my nails. They're quick, easy, and they look amazing! 

I had originally planned on doing a complicated scaled gradient but I forgot. Ha ha! I completely forgot that it was my intention to do so and I didn't want to start over.

Born Pretty Review

It's review time! Today I'm sharing another Born Pretty Store nail art product.

*I received this product in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are mine.

Neon Waterfall

I was hanging out with my amazing sister-in-law the other day. She lives out of state and we don't get to see each other all that much. We watched movies, and I did her nails. I really do just adore that woman! It's always such a treat to see her!

After I did her nails, I wanted to do mine. I didn't want to spend too long doing them so I knew right away I wanted to do a super-quick waterfall design. I just had to pick a color to start with! Well, Tracy made that decision for me. :)

Water Marble and Glitter

It hit me, the other day, that I haven't done a water marble in quite some time. So when a day came that I had plenty of time to do one, I decided to go for it! I know they're time consuming and a little annoying but I LOVE THEM! Well, after my indecisive nature kicked in and I finally chose the polishes I wanted to marble with, I didn't have all that much time left. I still reeeeally wanted to water marble so I settled on some water marble accent nails, instead.

Just a Quickie: Neon Marble

This is a cling wrap marble design I actually did a couple of weeks or so ago and, apparently, I never got around to posting it. 

Base color: Nina Ultra Pro Pearly Brights

Marbled color: Funky Fingers Let the Beat Drop
