Hi Goddesses
And so the week comes to an end, and unlike last month, I am really sad. I've really enjoyed this theme, and I think this inspiration will stay with me for a while.
We end the week with a heart design for Valentine's Day over a design I did for Day 9 of the 31DC.
Polishes Used -
Barry M Almond
OPI In A Holidaze
OPI Love. Angel. Music. Baby
BM-620
I love the stamping here. LAMB stamps so beautifully and sparkly and the contrast with the rich ruby of the base is perfect.
I hope you've enjoyed this week - don't forget to check out my fellow lovely ladies :)
Hi Goddesses
It's been a weird week this week. For the first time in ages, I've not had a lot of motivation for blogging or painting my nails. I'm going to 100% blame it on this horrendous cold I've had, as some days I haven't felt motivated to do anything!
This week's 2nd prompt for the 52 Week Challenge is purple, and I dug a long forgotten (and never used) gem out of my collection - Different Dimension Orchid You Not.
It's a lovely bright purple with violet tinges to it. I sometimes get a bit jaded with purple holos, because I own so many of them, but this one was a nice change.
As this week's other 52 Week prompt was hearts, I did some multi-colour stamping, using 3 MoYou stamping polishes and MoYou Punk 06 plate.
I love the finished result, that it has a slightly tattered and edgy look, and isn't too cutesy.
Hi Goddesses
Today's mani is one of the first I did for this week's challenge, and features a mani I did for Day 2 of January's 31DC.
I was in love with the tape mani I had done on 3 fingers, and was curious to see if it could take another pattern - and I think it did!
The polishes are -
base - Literary Lacquers - Shadown Between Us
Indigo Bananas - Halcyon, Twice As Bright, Electric Unicorns
Before I did the stamping, I did a little bit of splodging with the same polishes on the 2 non-taped nails, and then I stamped using MoYou purple stamping polish and MoYou Pro 01.
Unexpectedly it works, and it looks pretty similar to quite a lot of socks I have!
Hi Goddesses
I've got to say, I am REALLY in love with today's mani. It's so bright and cheerful.
The base is a dotticure. I've often stamped on a splodged base, but I have accidentally discovered that a dotted base provides far more colour intensity. The dotticure had some super bright colours -
OPI Hot & Spicy
OPI Fashion A Bow
OPI Can't Find My Czechbook
Barry M Mustard
Barry M Damson
Rimmel Jazz Funk
This reminds me of a child's party - a clutch of bright balloons or mad vinyl table cloths.
The stamping comes from MoYou Explorer 11 and is pretty much your archetypal tribal pattern.
I love how this pops more over the dotted base than it would have over a plain or splodged base, or even a gradient. I have a couple more variations of this coming up in the next few weeks.
