strrrrripes!

I'm practicing striping, and today it went wery well!

I'm using rio nail art polish. red, bøack white and yellow!

Pink and dots

Today, an old photo I found :-)

Not really shure what I used,,, really not, but it is pink :-p and light... the dotting is with rio nail art pens!

leopard again!

I think I finally nailed (no pun intended..) the leopard print!

I used hm gold holo as my as my base color and did the rings with black depend and filled them with OPI ds desire (?)

shoes and nails!

Here are both my hands, and my shoes :-)

I used china glaze entourage, nivea rose gloss and depend black.

In britain

And of course I had to do the union jack :-) The rest of the fingers was green, with black dots. (the dots are back ;-) ) I did the flag with rio nail art laquers.

Blackened Gold

(the bottom picture is just to fill out the collage :-p I didn't take enough pictures :-) )

The colors are h&m and mixed together. I used one gold and one blackish (don't remember the name on that one..) I miced back and fouth until the gold was blackened and the other way round :-)

And of course again the dots!

Inspired by art!

Inspired by what painter? ;-)

I used my HM enchantress Emma and decorated it with lines of black, orange and purple :-)

Finally back to painting nails instead of complaining about the gel stuff ;-)

My green dream

I found a new nailpolish today! GOSH green hawaii!
It is a sheer green with multicolored glitter :-)

My computer is stil sick, so I am blogging from my phone. Don't know if I'll be able to load the photo :-D

I did manage to load the photo!


I have green nails with small black decorations. Again I used my self cut striper.

Red Alert!

This is todays design! I wanted something red, and it is definetly red!

I used the following products:

My self-cut striping brush and one other self cut brush, a little larger than the striping one..
Base coat and top coat Kiss diamond nails
Base red: Mavala #53 London
Shimmer red: Depend #91
Gold: H&M Gold
Black: H&M Moonless night

First I applied the two different reds, one coat of each:

Then I put a small drop of the gold polish on a piece of paper and used the striperbrush to make a diagonal line. After lining all my nails, I painted on the other shorter line. (on my pinkie)

Then I filled in one half of my nail with the gold. I used a slightly larger brush, but not a polish brush. After that I traced the edges with the black, and Tadaaaa:

Black and greeen!

Today I'm spending my day playing the trumpet inside a dark concert hall and I wanted to try something fun! I used my H&M Moonless Night  as my base color,  When I bought it I tought it was a shimmer black, but now I think it is more daaaark dark green and black'ish.

Now too the fun part! A while ago orderd a pile of acrylic paint. And 6 of them are neons!

So, since I'm spending the day in darkness, I made neon green racing stripes :-D

Out of focus sunny picure:

Picture in the dark:

And what my left hand looked like after packing my bag for the day, without putting top coat on ... Yep, H&M is not a quickdry polish :-D

And a picture I took last night of yesterdays mani, It matched my can of cider :-D

Color mix

I changed my nails again.. This time a mix of green and black (black with dark green)

I applyed my Sally Hansen Diamond base coat. And applied a thic coat of green. While it is still wet, i put a coupl of blak drops on top and mix with a tothpick.

I use too much black and the green was a little to dark for my taste as well. But now i know :-)

Negler!

These pictures are of my first attempts on nail art. (And also my first attempts on photographing my nails...) 

This first picture is some fun with konad. I only have one plate #25 so every konad in this post is from that plate. 

Here, I played with my self cut striper pen (take a small makeup brush with long bristles and cut it down to 5 or 6 bristles) I found making dots much easier than stripes...

Here I am attempting the norwegian flag. About one hundred coats... and crooked, but I will definitly do i again on our national day 17. may :-) Also making some flowers and som paws :-D

(I'll probably explin how in a later post :-))

Fun with green (my favourite color) and dots!
