Hello, so i'm posting my day 10 late because I spent yesterday traveling to my parents house and was too tired to post my pictures last night. I was inspired by the variety of colors that the poinsettia flower comes in. I also just received my Layla Magneffect - velvet groove (#08) so i wanted to incorporate the color as well as take advantage of the magnetic pull you can get, which would cater to separating the petals. This was my first time using it so it wasn't as successful as i had hoped, but i think it still go the look across.

The base color is Butter london - all hail the queen, the dark purple flowers were done using Layla Magneffect - velvet groove (#08) The red is Revlon - revlon red (#680), the pink were done with O.P.I.- bubble bath, Nail Star - baby pink.

the green leaves were done using Nail Star - dark green glitter, and then for the center of the flowers i placed three gold rhinestone cabochons. Then Seche VITE - quick dry top coat.

long day!

Just spent all morning driving back from vermont and was in need of a pick me up. I was looking through my stash and realized i still haven't tried my Butter London - Rosie Lee that i picked up weeks ago!!! it's the most amazing pink glitter, seriously delicious looking... thus, the inspiration... cupcakes! this nail design includes pink glittery frosting, multicolor sprinkles all on top of soft spongey cake!

Due to the playful theme, and excessive decoration i thought the layout of the nails should remain on the tamer side. For the base color I used O.P.I. - bubble bath (3 coats), Kiss - white for the dots, Butter London -  Rosie Lee (3-4 coats) and of course, nail art beads (my new obsession!!)  adhered with O.P.I. - top coat.

these nails were super easy to do and other than dry time, which is always longer when using these nail art beads (better safe than sorry) the design does not take a long time to complete.

Now  that i am finished i am going to go look for something sweet to eat!  :)
