Fall catch up post!

I finally interrupted my autumn crochet frenzy to post all the nails I've been doing lately!

Cool geometrics with ombre

I used TruGel Marshmallow, Gelish Tiger Blossom and Gelish Black Shadow. 

 I've been looking forward to doing these for a long time now. ComicCon Nails! 

I used Gelish Hot Rod Red on most of the nails for a perfect 1940's look. Then for the accent nails, one had to have Captain America's shield of course, and the other is Peggy Carter's signature red hat. 

For those nails I used Gelish Midnight Caller and Gelish Night Shimmer with touches of various colors for the artwork. 

 Peggy's hat!

 And there he is. I hope he was just as hunky in real life! I can't wait to hear about it!

Its that time of year people! My favorite nail holiday...

HALLOWEEN!!!

I used: TruGel Marshmallow, Finger Paints Rococo Orange, Gelish Black Shadow, ASP Sparkler and Gelish Waterfield. And a bunch of dotting tools! 

And here are some lovely fall frenchies. I love how they turned out. So pretty! 

I used Gelish Bashful, Gelish Arctic Freeze and some Konad stamping polish. 

Thanks for reading, 

See you Monday!

Foxy Foxes!

Foxy Nails! 

They turned out way cute and a lot easier than I thought they would be. 

I used: ASP Blue Crush, plus some bright orange, black and white. 

One of my favorites: Roses!

I used Gelish Gossip Girl, Gelish Postcards from Paris and various pinks and a touch of green for the roses. 

Fall trees and Glitter!

So, these look a bit more like funky palm trees and less like fall trees BUT I tried. And the glitter fade turned out fantastic. 

I used: TruGel Marshmallow, Gelish Pumps or Cowboy Boots?, Gelish All that Glitters is Gold and some touches of orange and yellow. 

Here are my nails this week. I couldn't decide what color, so I went with all of them again. 

I used Gelish Want to Cuddle?, Finger Paints Rococo Orange, OPI My Vampire is Buff, Gelish Hot Rod Red and Gelish Tiger Blossom. I know, its a lot of colors but I like how it turned out. 

Thanks for reading, 

See you Monday! 

Back to school and Dr. Who!

My little girl started first grade last week. She was SOOOO exited! So we figured we better do some nails to celebrate. 

So we decided on a fun red apple theme. 

For my nails, I used Gelish Hot Rod Red, and TruGel Marshmallow. 

for hers I had a regular polish red that was pretty close and a regular white as well. mine are gelpolish, hers are just nail polish but I think they match pretty well anyway. 

And here is another back to school design. I LOVE how this one turned out! But which is your favorite, the notebook paper? Chalk board? Apple? Ruler? 

For this, I used Gelish Hot Rod Red, Gelish Black Shadow, TruGel Marshmallow, and ASP Sparkler. For the art work I used all gelpolish in whatever colors I could find. 

Aren't they adorable???

Dr. Who Nails!!!

You may not be able to tell, but yes, that is a time vortex you're seeing. 

With a mini Tardis. 

I used, Gelish After Dark, Gelish Ocean Wave, Gelish Arctic Freeze and Gelish Casmere Kind of Gal. to create the time vortex, I used a tutorial for tie dye nails that seemed pretty close. 

For this last manicure I took a million pictures and they all turned out so pretty that I just had to post them all. 

And also, THAT RING!!!

So Pretty!!!

For this Manicure, I used Gelish Gossip Girl (favorite color!) and then a touch of Gelish Pink Smoothie and Gelish Artic Freeze.

See you Monday!

Happy July 4th!!!

YAY for holidays and YAY for pictures! 

(This post has a million!)

Thanks to the lovely Jessica for lending me her hands for this fun stars and stripes mani. 

I used FingerPaints Modern Motif, TruGel Marshmallow and Gelish Hot Rod Red. All the art is handpainted! 

One of may favorites things to do? Mini Manis! 

Thanks to Shauna and her "Mini" for letting me have so much fun with this wild and crazy patriotic mani. 

The main colors used here are the usual suspects. TruGel Marshmallow, Gelish Hot Rod Red and Gelish After Dark. I also used Gelish Night Shimmer topped with some fun glitters that we thought looked a bit like sparks from a firework. I love how fun these turned out! 

And another Mom and Mini Mani! 

This time my sister Candi and her Sassy Roxanne who knew exactly what she wanted. Ice cream and bananas of course! 

I've been wanting to try this manicure for a while and I'm really happy with how it turned out. Plus I super love how Candi's jewelry makes it even cooler. I have a cool sister. Be jealous. 

I used: TruGel Marshmallow, Gelish Hot Rod Red and Gelish Ocean Wave. Then I stamped with some Konad white and added white sparkly glitter to the white nail. 

And here is my most flag-like manicure, modeled by my wonderful mother, Susan, with the help of glassybaby. She had really nice big nails and she lets me do whatever I want to them. So nice! 

I do love how these turned out even if they do make me giggle a little at how bright and flag-y they are. I used Gelish Ocean Wave and Gelish Hot Rod Red and then stamped them with Konad White. Pretty simple actually. 

And the last of the patriotic manicures is modeled by my good friend Kasey. Pretty, cool and fun. Just like Kasey! 

I used Gelish Hot Rod Red, Gelish After Dark, Gelish Night Shimmer, Gelish Arctic Freeze and Gelish Waterfield.

July is coming...are you ready???

 We are!!!

And there's still time to come get your nails done before the holiday weekend. 

Come over! 

I've been doing a bunch of Independence Day Nails lately. They're so fun! 

Here's the first one:

Nautical Nails!!!

I'm not the best hand painter, but these were super fun to do! 

Thanks to lovely Andrea, for sharing her hands with me for a couple hours! 

I used: Gelish Arctic Freeze and Finger Paints Modern Motif. Thats it! 

This is what I'm wearing right now and I'm loving them! I've been wanting to try this mani for a while now and I can definitely say I'll be doing this one again!

Just don't look too closely at my right hand flowers as they look less like flowers and more like stuff I studied in biology class. 

I used: TruGel Marshmallow, Red Carpet Love Those Baby Blues, Gelish Hot Rod Red and Gelish After Dark. And a dotting tool. 

Flag Nails! 

Whats more patriotic than stars and stripes? I love how this one turned out. And it wasn't really all that much nail art either! 

How pretty is this picture? Two of my favorite things, nail art and glassybaby! 

I used: TruGel Marshmallow, Gelish Hot Rod Red and Gelish After Dark. 

Little Girl Mani/Pedi!

This is my little girl. She's pretty happy with herself!

My little boy, not so happy. 

And finally, my sparkly red white and blue fingers and toes. 

A pretty simple Mani/Pedi. The only fun thing here is the glitter fade, which is always a hit. 

 I used: Gelish Hot Rod Red, Gelish After Dark, Gelish Night Shimmer, Gelish Waterfield and TruGel Marshmallow.
