Sometimes, I impress myself...
Good morning!
Today's post is a short one, featuring this month's Monthly Palette Project. Here are the colors we had to choose from:
If I remember correctly, we had to pick at least two colors, and had to water marble with them. Well, I didn't have exact colors, but I chose the closest possible. First, though, I laid down a base of Zoya Purity. My marbling colors were Zoya also, Dot, Taylor, and Alexa. All I can say is, wow, these colors really marbled well together. I added dots in Edie and topped with Seche.
Excuse the awkward looking poses. I was really trying to capture how this turned out on both hands.

Happy Valentine's Day!
Anyways, I have a few manis to show you, starting with today's. It's Valentine's themed, but not red and pink lol. One of my favorite treats for Valentine's are the little candy conversation hearts, so when Messy Mansion designed a plate with with those little phrases, I had to have it. I started with a Skittles mani, using Zoya Shelby, Yummy, Josie, and Sharon, and OPI's I Just Can't Cope-acabana (ahhhhh-mazing yellow!!!), all topped with Seche. Then I stamped a different phrase on each finger in Confetti Purple Reigns. Topped again with Seche, then a coat of Wet 'N Wild's matte coat.
I won't show you yesterday's mani because, quite frankly, I hated it. I hate how it turned out, it really looked better in my head than on the nail. It was awful.
I got a lot of compliments on Wednesday's mani, which is kind of funny, because the plate I used wasn't the one I ordered lol. I'm still waiting for the one I ordered :P
Wednesday's mani started with OPI's Kiss me on my Tulips as a base then Seche. The stamped image came from Vivid Lacquer plate VL 010 in CND Vinylux Black Pool. Seche again, then OPI's matte coat.
Tuesday's mani was for the Monthly Palette Project-
Okay, so for this one, it was use at least two colors and recreate someone else's mani. You know, monkey see, monkey do. I found this mani on Pinterest and went for it.
All my colors are Zoyas: Stevie, Malia, and Danni. Stamped image came from Messy Mansion MM07.

Fan brush art, or just a hot mess?
You be the judge >.<
Good evening!
So, a group I'm in on Face Book does something every month called the Monthly Palette Project. In short, there's a group of colors you pick from and follow the rules. I don't normally take part of them, but I sort of "challenged" into it lol.
This is the palette for November:
The rules called for picking two colors and also using brush art of some kind. Mind you, I only really have the blues on this palette, but I remembered I have OPI's The "It" Color, which kinda satisfied the golden yellow.
I used that as my base color at 3 coats followed by a coat of Seche. I pulled out my fan brush and proceeded to create a hot mess with Zoya Natty and China Glaze Kaleidoscope Him Out, topped off with Seche.
