The 1st Ever Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge


The Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge – Week 1


Week 1 – Breast Cancer Awareness

Hi Goddesses




Today sees the inaugural Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge J  Me and Claire from Purple Fairy Dust have decided to do a Challenge on Friday each week.  Why ?  well, I can be lazy, and having a theme I have to think about makes me better.



Also, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but everyone who has done the 31 Day Challenge has got better.  If you want to join in with us, you’re welcome to, just let one of us know on Facebook.



So, we decided we were both Hallowe’ened out, and probably a little under-supportive of Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Not that we did this intentionally, but I think we were both more focussed on raising awareness of October also being Depression Awareness Month.  So to set the balance right – here’s my Pink Challenge.




And whaddya know – it’s ALL about the firsts!  First PCF Challenge, first tape mani and first blingy tips – all in one post lol!



This started with China Glaze QT on all the nails.  This is a lovely holo with genuine warmth and quite a lot of gold.  It’s like how I always wanted Strawberry Fields to be.



This was then topped with a beautiful OPI called More Time For Me.  As a mummy I soooo identify with that name, but it’s also just the most lovely muted magenta.  Interesting fact – I used masking tape for my tape mani, and hey ho, it doesn’t like to keep a straight line.  Interesting, but in this case, it defined the mani, as I decided it then looked like the OPI had dripped onto the holo.



Finally some Funky Fingers on the tips in Sand & Stilettos. This is insanely glittery and holographic but became harder to work with as I moved through the nails.



And there you have it – Pink Frosted Cupcakes for Breast Cancer Awareness.  I don’t know about you, but these look good enough to eat to me.  Maybe I should go and get some breakfast …

Enjoy, and if you want to join in, let me or Claire know xxxx
