Hola nail polish fans

So here we are on Suday the 27th of April. What a beautiful day. The birds are singing, sun is shining and I have a new nail polish design on my nails. What could be better? Oh wait a moment......I could be a millionaire. But that fact that I'm not is immaterial. I am still very happy. I've been working a lot with nail stamping. I really like it. Every Sunday I do my daughters nails and she picks a new design. My other daughter does a new stamped design every couple of days. Like mother, like daughter.

This weeks design starts with two coats of L.A. Girl Color Pop Dragon Fruit. This is a beautiful

pinky purple color with a bit of iridescence. Goes on perfectly with two coats. I purchased it at Rite-Aid

On my index finger I added some carefully placed diamond shapes from Nicole by OPI in Be Awesome. This is a clear base with a multitude of holographic diamond shapes. Stunning, truly. I have a huge amount of polish and I have never seen one like this EVER. I bought mine at Wal-Mart.

On all of the other fingers I used Mundo de Unas Cream and Aqua. I purchased mine at LLRowe. Here is the link for them. http://www.llarowe.com/ I chose these colors because they went well the the OPI polish. This is by far my favorite stamping polish. I'ts amazing. If you haven't tried it, you should. For the design I used a Pueen stamping plate SE03A. Here is the link to find it on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Pueen-2014-Nail-Stamp-Collection/dp/B00L1CALVO/ref=sr_1_4?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1430100131&sr=1-4&keywords=pueen+stamping+plates

This is the finished look. Please give me your thoughts. I hope you liked this weeks design.

Thanks for stopping by.

Another sunny Saunday

And hotter then Hell. When it's already 75 degrees at 7:30 in the morning, you know it's going to be hot. Too freaking hot. So, I'm nice and cool indoors, doing my nails...and fighting off a migraine. I saw today's idea on Pinterest. Here's the link. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/394979829801950580/ These are so pretty. It looks like the white is 3-D but I didn't have supplies to do that. So, per usual, I improvised. Here we go... Base coat as always. I used French manicure guides to mark where I wanted the polish to end. Wait for it....Yep, you are so right,! Amazon. I used Essie Loot the Booty for the blue. This polish has just a hit of super fine shimmer in it. For the white, I used Mundo de Unas nail stamping polish. You should find it here. http://www.mundodeunas.com/ For the teeny dots, I used a dotting (Amazon) and L.A. Girl Color Pop White On. I bought mine at Rite-Aid but my store doesn't have it any longer. Top coat - Sa

Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur.......

Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr, purr purr. If you watch the Big Bang Theory, you know where this comes from. I don't. But my daughter does. When I saw this polish on the Super Nails Etsy site, I had to get it for her. Me, being a cat lover, I had to get one for myself as well. Here is the link. https://www.etsy.com/shop/supernails This is a polish that has a sheer pink base. It is full of pink, grey and white tiny spots. It's not glitter, because it doesn't sparkle. The think that made me want to buy it is that it has white, pink and grey......kitty heads in it. I thought it was really cute. Let it begin: Base coat...check. Pro-Fx nail Concealer in Light/Medium. I don't know if I mentioned it but it come is Medium/Dark as well. One coat of this. Polish...check. If you aren't familiar with glitter type polish, it's applied differently than regular polish. For me, the first coat is the base coat for the color. each following coat that I put on, I am pl

Happy Mother's Day.

Greetings: I hope all of the Mother's have a blessed day. Children are amazing. I have seven of my own and many of my children's friends that I claim as my own. I bought some new polish on Thursday. I bought a dark pink, a nice blue, a sand color and a sparkly fairy dust color. The blue reminded me of my Mom's blue eyes. I lost her in 2003. It doesn't get any easier. It's just life. I miss her terribly. She was very special. Let's get the show on the road. First, a base coat. Your choice. I used the Pro-Fx Nail Concealer in Light Medium. I used one coat to create a smooth surface. I chose Pure Ice Shine Rain & Shine. Thins is a nice cornflower blue. Two coats. For the glitter I used Glitter Lambs Million Dollar Gradient. I love this color. It's gold, gold and more gold. It's a "bam"in your face gold. With glitter polish, the first Coat you need to "place" more then "paint" it on. Th
