Hi Goddesses
Summer Challenge? I know, I know, I have been a VERY naughty Crumpet. I haven't posted many challenge manis at all in the last 3 weeks, partly because this Challenge is NEVERENDING and I'm bored with it and partly because I've been distracted with other things.
I had several ideas for today, most of which involved using my new nail art toys - aka glitter and shit. There's a lot of pretties, and I have you to thank, because most of them came from the money from the blog sale. So this is YOUR mani, kind of :)
This is 2 layers of OPI Thanks A Windmillion from the Holland Collection. I resisted buying this for the longest time, but it is such a pretty green, and one of the shades of green that I can actually wear! It was a little bit darker and dustier than I realised, and I am totally ok with that. This is what I would call a sage green, and it's lovely.
So what glitter did I apply then? Well, these ....... Little irridescent squares (yes, square glitter!) which come in the world's smallest bottles (each is about the length of a good cat claw) but .... oh, don't they look CUTE !!
So, yes, orange and green squares. There you go. Byeeeee. Pardon ?? Sorry, what's that ? They look the same ? Yeh, don't they just. Pretty but ... no, they do not look like I used orange on the thumb, middle and pinkie, and the totally opposite GREEN on the index and ring fingers. Bummer.
Still, I do quite like it. It's subtle but a bit blingy at the same time. And it's such fun playing with glitter - it brings out the 5yr old in me !!
Interestingly, they also seem to phosphoresce in the shade, but I couldn't get a good photo of that. And no, they didn't look orange then either :(
