ONE STROKE BUTTERFLY NAILS

Hi guys, have you entered my giveaway here?

I hope your enjoying warmer weather wherever you may be because we certainly are here in the uk! The lovely weather is what inspired these nails, clear blue skies and pretty butterflies!

So for this I started off with two coats of Color Club Take Me To Your Chateau, then sponged on a little bit of white for clouds before applying one coat of Revlon Whimsical (simply because it's pretty and I haven't used it in ages). When that was dry I used the one  stroke technique to paint on the butterfly wings and finally added the rest of the detail with black acrylic paint before topcoating it all!

This design was far from perfect but I really enjoyed these nails, so summery and happy, what do you guys think?

HITS MARI MOON CHAMELEON

Happy Monday!

So today is just a plain swatch of an amazing multichrome polish. I actually wore this for my holidays so I quickly snapped these pictures before leaving for the airport. 

Anywho I layered one (thickish) coat over 2 coats of Color Club  Artsy Crafty. I don't even know what to say about this polish because it is truly truly gorgeous and I don't believe I'll do it justice by talking about it so  I'll leave you with a tonne of pictures. Enjoy!

Well there you go, what do you think? Are you a fan of multichromes?

MINTY GLEQUIN GRADIENT

Hi all my beautiful friends, how are you all? 

So today I have another springy mani for you which is actually a big fat fail ! The glequins were supposed to look like a gradient fading from silver into pink, it didn't really work ! It still kinda looks pretty from a distance, so erm please don't ask me why I included a big macro shot of the glequined nail !

I started off with 2 coats of a minty green Color Club I got in a set from TK Maxx (I don't know the name if you guys have an idea please let me know in the comments) then just applied the silver and pale pink glequins and topped it all with a nice thick coat of  NYC Turbo Dry Topcoat !

Gosh, I've applied these rather sloppily !

So there you go, looking at these pictures is just making me wish spring would hurry up and make an appearance ! 

Take care guys, see you in my next post!

SPRING FLOWER GLEQUIN NAILS

Hi guys, I'm still obsessed with glequins but when I did these nails I didn't have a patience to do my whole nail so I decided to create these simple, cute flowers which totally remind me of spring  ! 

I started off with 2 coats of Color Club Take Me To Your Chateau (which I really really love) Then I just applied a dot of topcoat where I wanted to apply the glequins. I used the pale green and the pale pink glequins from the Born Pretty Store set !

My placement isn't perfect but these are so darn shiny in real life you really can't tell at all!

It looked really awesome in real life, the colours worked so well together! Do you like it? The weathers been so pants here recently so these nails make me a feel a little closer to spring ! Lol ! What's the weather like where you are?

RED VALENTINE'S

Hi guys, so here is a Valentine's mani I rustled up for you guys : ) I'm not a Valentine's person at all but I know some of you like seeing these types of mani's :) 

Ok so for this I started off with one coat of Kiko 238 (which is an amazing red) then I sponged on Colour Club Ruby Slippers on to the tips. When that was dry I stamped on this hearts image from the CH-15 plate using the white Born Pretty stamping polish I reviewed here ! To finish off I topcoated the design with NYC Turbo Dry !

Hope you like this one :)

MARC DARCY'S CHRISTMAS JUMPER

Hey y'all, so I hope your all familiar with Bridget Jones Diary, if you aren't go familiarise yourselves now ! Go  ! So today's nails feature not just any reindeer but the reindeer from Mr Darcy's jumper ; D 

Lol, anyway for these nails I applied 2 coats of Color Club Artsy Crafty (which looks a lot bluer than it really is in these photo's, it's a gorgeous hunter green) Then I had to crack out the acrylic paint and nail art brush to paint in the rest. 

Unfortunately the red polish got a bit stringy when I dotted on his nose which did ruin it a bit but oh well ! 

Lol, I love this little dude, do you ?

STAMPED CHRISTMAS JUMPER NAILS

Hi everyone, how are you guys doing? Me, I'm not so good, my cat is ill and quite old as well so I'm not sure he's going to make it; the past few days he has been crying out the saddest meows which break my heart, he won't leave my side and just cries for most of the day, and it really really upsets me so I don't feel much like talking, but I have to get this post up.

These nails are 2 coats of Colour Club Ruby Slippers  and then stamped with the image from the BM-315 plate and topped off with Seche Vite.
