Would you look at that......

I'm actually posting on Sunday. Whoot, whoot!

So here we are once again. Sundays are my quiet days. It's the day I don't do anything. becvause I did everything on Saturday.

I've been a little lacking in the creativity department lately. I do believe I am depressed.  Life is giving me fits I don't expect a perfect life by any means. Grrrrr.

This weeiks design I came up with by looking at ideas on Pinterest. The design that inspired me is this one by Chantal Toile. Here's the link.https://www.pinterest.com/search/pins/?q=stamped%20nail%20art&rs=typed&term_meta[]=stamped%7Ctyped&term_meta[]=nail%7Ctyped&term_meta[]=art%7Ctyped

I decided to use tone on tone colors and this suited me too a T.

Base coat...your choice. :)  I followed this with two coats of Pure Ice Shore Bet. This is a pale sandy color. I chose to do just two coats because I was stamping over the polish. Otherwise I would have used three for good opacity.

For the stamping polish I used Mundo de Unas Light Gold. Here is the link to the polish. http://www.mundodeunas.com/_p/prd1/2015658925/product/40.-light-gold---mini

I used Pueen Special Edition Stamping Plate SE04A. This set I purchased on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L1CALVO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s04?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I used Sally Hansen Insta Dri for the top coat. Finito.

Sweet and simple.

Enjoy.

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
