Black Daisy

Hey lovelies! Check out this manicure I did recently. I was swatching China Glaze Fifth Avenue a very pretty mellow pink creme and I wanted to spice it up a bit with a design so I added some daisies.


I used the Black and White Migi Nail Art Pen for the Daisies.

I hope you guys like it! Thank you for reading. Sorry this post is so short but it's bed time. haha!

The British Tea Set...HUH?!

Hey Loves! I have missed nail stamping so much lately. After my St. Patricks Day post my scraper just up and disappeared on me. My Daughter probably threw it in the trash ha ha. After many failed attempts of using other random objects (a credit card, part of the plastic top to a package of baby wipes) I gave up on stamping for a while..But I am back at it loves! My awesome Boyfriend braved the mall and the RIDICULOUS  prices and bought me a new scraper and a new stamper which I love!

He paid 10 bucks for this. YIKES! So much cheaper on line but I was in desperate need and he knew this ha ha!  The smaller stamper is great and I love the that it's white..I can see the designs MUCH better so placement on the mail is better. Good Job Kevin!

Two coats of China Glaze First Mate and then using Orly Pointe Blanche I used Konad Plate M70 to stamp on the really cool flower design. I had completely overlooked this plate but there are two designs on it that I REALLY like! This design and the one I use here..


I am really happy with the blue and white combination. 

I think it's time for another trim..  :/

Up Close!

Thanks for reading!  I hope you enjoy this one as much as I do!
Peace, Love, and Nail Stamping!

P.S. I asked Kevin what I should call this post and with ZERO Hesitation he said.. "The British Tea Set" hahahaha ummmmm! He brings the LOLZ times 10.

Best Of 2010..Nails

Hello friends! In this post I am sharing with you one of my favorite Konad Manicures of the year. I actually only started Konading in the middle of October and this was the third design/color combination  I tried and I fell in love with it. I also got  a lot of compliments on this manicure as well, so I kept this one for 4 or 5 days. That is a LONG time for me!
Base color is TWO coats of China Glaze Grape Pop one of my favorite buys of the year, its a dark creme purple. the Flowers are  China Glaze White On White.

The design comes from Konad plate m73.  The detail of this design is so pretty. It's just very dainty and delicate..thats why I like to use a Darker Purple with it to kind of balance the softness of the little flowers and vines.

One of my favorite Manicures of 2010! This beauty will definitely be making an appearance in the New Year..For sure!! What do you guys think? What color combinations do you think would go good with this pretty design? Thanks for reading and following if you have!
