Digit-al Dozen DOES Food .... Pineapples!

Hi Goddesses



For the most part, this week is brought to you by Pinterest!  I have so many boards on there, and that's the first place I turned when I was deciding what to do this week.






This is a classic case of a really cute pattern, and me not loving my mani because it's not close ENOUGH to the pattern - dammit, I wanted DUMPY pineapples!

Still, at least it's freehand, and at one point I was really worried this week was going to be all about the stamping lol!





I used the following polishes - 

base - the gorgeous Limestone by Elevation Polish.  I do loved flecked polishes on base!
pineapple - China Glaze Metro Pollen-tin with China Glaze Desert Sun markings
pineapple head - Girly Bits Hooperchondriac and Barry M Spring Green
dots - Elevation Polish The Med 2, a MoYou stamping polish and Barry M Spring Green






If I was the sort of person to redo this mani, I wouldn't go with Hooperchondriac again for the pineapple head - for me, it's a little too neon, and throws off the other more muted colours in the mani.  I'm also not so thrilled with my dots - I think better colour choices are demanded lol.



Don't forget to checkout the other DD ladies!

31DC2015 Day 13 - Inspired by Pinterest

Hi Goddesses



Like a lot of people, I spend "some" time on pinterest :)  I also tend to be really good at collecting inspiration, but then not actually doing anything about it, so today's prompt gave me plenty of choice.

I eventually picked out this image (by Ashleyg on flickr), and used 3 lovely Elevation Polishes -




- on base, Elevation Polish Limestone
- that amazing pink is Elevation Polish Purple Queen Anthias
- and then the world's dreamiest lilac, Elevation Polish Tavan Bog'd




This is one of my favourite nail art designs I've ever done.  It's not perfect, but the brushwork is more ambitious, and those 3 colours are just MADE to be used together.





I need to spend a moment purring about Purple Queen Anthias.  It is just STUNNING.  The intensity of the colour is amazing, and honestly, I can see me using my bottle up this year.  Utterly gorgeous, which is why I snuck it into my favourite polishes of 2014.






Overall, the blend of these 3 colours was quite inspirational for me!  I can easily imagine a whole week's worth of manis .....  ;)
