31 Day Challenge - Day 31 - Recreate A Favorite Challenge

 -Cookies 'N' Cream-

I can't believe it, the challenge is over! We are at the final day, and I have chosen the black and white challenge as my final look. I am a fan of anything cookies and cream, whether it's the delicious ice cream or this fun nail design.

Polishes used: China Glaze - White on White, Orly - Liquid Vinyl, Cover Band - Sticks 'N Stones
This look is so simple to create using both black and white polishes and the polish Sticks 'N Stones by Cover Band. This is one good coat of Sticks 'N Stones, where I used the brush to "push" the bits around. What a fun, spunky look!

31 Day Challenge - Day 30 - Inspired By A Tutorial

 -Grass Green with Fishtail Accent Nail -

Guess who's back, back again... hopefully the absence only made your little hearts grow fonder! ;) After a brief unexpected hiatus I am finally getting to update with the final two looks of my 31 day challenge! 

Today's challenge is to create a look that is inspired by a tutorial. I used this amazing fishtail tutorial from the lovely Lucy at Lucystash.com and altered the colors a bit to give this manicure a nice, bright springtime feel!

Polishes used: China Glaze - GaGa For Green and First Mate. Wet N Wild - Silvivor
I am so in love with this look! The accent nail gives it a fancy feel, but trust me it is surprisingly easy to do. If you've been debating, give it a try soon! Don't let the look fool you!

31 Day Challenge - Day 29 - Inspired By The Supernatural

If you're wondering why this post is coming later than usual, you aren't going to believe what happened - I was abducted by aliens! They told me they came to Earth to learn the fine skill of nail art, and heard I was the lady they needed to see! Luckily, I was able to escape from their supernatural grips and return home just in time to paint their portraits for today's nail art challenge! Boy am I glad to be free!


Aliens
I advise you all to be on the lookout and if any of you run in to these four characters, you'd better run! You just might be next on their list of abduction targets!

31 Day Challenge - Day 28 - Inspired By Artwork


I have really been looking forward to today's nail art challenge! I recently stumbled across a really fun and colorful piece of art by Lindy Gruger Hanson that I absolutely adored.  The artwork featured a ton of fun, whimsical shapes and blended gradient background colors, which makes it the perfect inspiration for nail art! After a bit of brainstorming, here is what I came up with for today's look...
