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.

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...
