#33DC Day 10 - Flowers

Happy Thanksgiving All!
Flowers are up for day 10 of this challenge and it coincides with my purchase of some China Glaze liquid sand polishes so you get to see this textured flower design today.

So, who amongst you have cats? Because my new cat is splendid but his fur gets everywhere, including on my nails. Grawr. Knowing it will be a problem and having cat fur actually on your nails are very different. Oh well.

This is China Glaze Pussy Galore as a base with Solitaire and Tiffany Case for the flowers.

Thanks for looking, see you later!

#33DC Day 2 - Most Used Colour

Teal and pink, how I love you. These two specific colours should be familiar to you if you follow my blog. They are GOSH Miss Minty and Sally Hansen Coral Reef. It is very sad but I'm running pretty low on both of these. I'll have to go buy more so I can continue to use them all the time.

#33DC Day 1 - Dots

Whoa, whoa self, what are you doing? You aren't even done your other challenge! This is insane, but here we go, I'm starting another. I think I'm addicted.

Dots are incredibly versatile. I really do love them. I used the dots as a gradient here and I feel like I've got pastel teal fizzy drink on my nails, but maybe that's just me.

What do you think of my pastel combination? Thanks for visiting, see you tomorrow for #31DC2013 or on Wednesday for day 2, most used colour. And if you want to participate check out our facebook group here, this challenge is every Mon, Wed, Fri and should be a lot of fun.

#31DC2013 Day 21 - Inspired by a Color

I was inspired by the colour pink! I was sad not to see it in the rainbow of colours at the beginning of the challenge so I knew right then that pink would be my colour for this challenge. I went for a pinky purple feel and a very light pink.

This is a simple manicure but I found that it really stood out, plus it means practice doing frenches.

I always try to remember the manicures that garner compliments and this was one of them. Let me know if you try it and get compliments too!

#31DC2013 Day 18 - Half Moons

Half moons are fun! I mixed texture here and painted pink on the underside of my nails too. I thought half moons would work very well with these two techniques.

The polishes I used for this design are Sally Hansen Coral Reef and Kleancolor Bright & Breezy which is a matte metallic polish.

I took lots of pictures so I could try and show off the underside of my nails and how the light hits the matte polish. I like the last one best.

See you tomorrow!

 

#31DC2013 Day 15 - Delicate Print

I chose to do a marble-esque look for my delicate print design. It might be more on the natural side of prints but I think it counts! I have two versions of this design for you as well because the first might be a tad subtle and the last might not be subtle enough.. rather than decide myself I decided to post both, maybe you all can tell me, eh?

This is my first design. On the screen on my camera I couldn't even see the variation between the pink and the silver.

Can you see the sparkle from my silver still on my fingers? It was so difficult to get rid of!

And this is my second design, can you see why I thought it might not be subtle enough? But I do like it, still.

Tomorrow is tribal nails, are you excited?

#31DC2013 Day 14 - Flowers

Oh flowers.. this one drove me mad. There is a reason it is being posted so late today, I must have redone this day's design six or seven times. Luckily I accomplished something I was satisfied with before the sun went down and with time to do everything a day requires other than nail polish.

I wanted to stick to pinks and purples, throughout my attempts that never wavered. I used Gosh Rose, Sinful Colors Let's Talk and my Kiss nail art pen in purple for my colours with Kleancolor Fuschia Glitter on top for some sparkle.

That's all folks!
