Stamping 101

So, a couple of weeks ago, I tried to stamp my nails. Holy Hell. I tried everything without success. I thought to myself "I can do this!" The first thing I did was buy some Mundo de Unas stamping polish. The second thing I did was check out you tube. Trust me when I say I have looked at a bazillion you tube videos, many on nail stamping. I came across one channel that helped me immensely was a channel with 3140babygirl. I will put her channel link here ---->https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCu6v48BvdeLN--6bnnR6yoA. She has a Stamping 101 video that I thought was really awesome. You should check her out. You wont be disappointed. 





 On my thumb, middle and ring finger I used China Glaze For Audrey.
This is a Tiffany box blue/green color with a cream finish. If you don't have it, you should pick it up.  To stamp, I used Mundo De Unas stamping polish in 22 Brown. I can't stress enough, if you are going to stamp your nails, get some of this. I have some Konad and compared to Konad, the Mundo de Unas is much better. For the rose stamp I used the Fab Ur Nails Fun 13 stamping plate. I used Glisten & Glow, HK Girl Fast Drying & Super Shiny Clear Top Coat.





For the index and pinky nails, I used Sally Hansen Insta-Dri In Nude-tral. This is a dark buff color with a cream finish. To stamp, I used Mundo de Unas in 24 Aqua. The stamping plate I used was Mash 40. Again I topped it off with Glisten & Glow, HK Girl Fast Drying & Super Shiny Clear Top Coat. (Thank goodness for copy & paste)

I will put the links download for everything I used.

Hope you enjoyed this post.

Wishing you the very best Holiday season

Yes, I know it's been two months since my last post. My health issues have carried over for two months and I have been exhausted. I was finally feeling better and I lost someone very dear to me. When I was born. I was blessed with amazing parents, my Nana and my Aunt Wanda.  Wanda has always treated me like her own. I spent every minute of my childhood that I could at Wanda and Nana's house. It was home to me. My grandmother taught me how to iron, cook and sew among other things. I lost her when I was 11. Both parents passed away in 2003. Wanda was always there for me. She was like a second mom to me. She helped me with anything she could.  She babysat my six kids when I was a single parent going to school. She treated my kids like they were her own. She was an amazing woman. She worked at Grand Coulee Dam when it was being built, she traveled and she truly loved life. She was a Christian and she devoted her life to Jesus Christ. Back in July when I had surgery on my foo...

A woman is helpless only when her nail polish is drying......

My daughter gave me a sign that says just that as a gift. She is so right. I can cook anything I choose, change the oil in a car, change a tire and a hundred other things I learned along the way. Mess with me when my polish is drying, you are going to be in trouble. \ Seriously. Painting nail is an art, even if you are putting on one color. It's tricky,it takes practice and its frustrating as Hell if you have to start over. Be patient. Let a woman get her nails dry and everything is awesome.  Fortunately my kids aren't little anymore and then fend for themselves most of the time. Other times it's like this "Mom, Mooooom, I've cut my carotid artery! I'm bleeding!!"  Yes dear, I'll be right there. Let my nail polish dry. Seriously, it's never that severe. Funny though. On with the polish at hand.... I really like the Pro-Fx Nail Concealer. It makes a nice smooth base to work with. I use one coat. It dries fast which is a bonus. Who really...

Greetings fellow nail polish fans...

My daughter has been out of school for nine days due to the weather. At this moment, it  is snowing like a son of a gun. She's so bored. I recently received the latest copy of Nail It! magazine. It's the November/December issue. There are so many amazing ideas for nails. As I was perusing through it's pages, I came upon this. This was submitted by Nora Ramsdell, Richmond, VA @naq57.  I really liked the look of the gold and green/teal color. Very chic but simple too.  Here we go.  I started with a base coat. Your choice. As long as it works, you will be fine.  I like Green but not all Greens. I tend to gravitate towards the blue-green, green-blue, teal-y colors. I chose Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Re-teal Therapy. I love this brand. It drys quickly and on me, it lasts until I take it off. That's usually about 10 days. I used two coats. For the Gold, I decided to try something new. I usually use stamping polish. I have seen videos on YouTube...
