Pink Camo

Hey Y'all!
I know I have been neglecting my blog recently! My heart just wasn't in it for a bit. I have been so crazy busy up until now, it just took a back seat. But I'm hopin I'm back to it for awhile! 
Today I have a fun pink camo look for ya! I really love the way they turned out! It was a different take on it that I think worked for a fun look!

Here's How:
I started with a hot pink base color. "Tickled Pink" by Salon Perfect.

I used this stampin plate by Bundle Monster, to create the camo look. It's plate number 310 from the 2012 collection. 

I'm using a dark green color for the first stamp layer. Pure Ice "Internationally Known." Polish the image on the plate.

Then scrape the polish towards you using a scraper. I used my creative shop stamper set. 

Pick the image up with a rollin motion. 

Line up your nail with the image and press into the stamper. 

And there's the first layer of your camo. 

Always clean your stamper with a piece of tape to keep it in good condition.

Clean off your plate between colors with a cotton round and some acetone.

Repeat the process with your next color. I used a lighter green "Pistache," from Sinful Colors.
Paint the polish on the image.

Scrape the polish towards you.

Pick up the image with a rollin motion.

Line it it up with your nail and press into the stamper. Now you have two layers of your camo.
Clean off your plate and stamper for your next color.

Repeat this process one more time with your last color. I used a dark brown "Scandal," by Pure Ice.
Paint the polish on the image.

Scrape the polish towards you.

Pick up the image with your stamper in a rollin motion. 

Line it up with your nail and press your nail into the stamper. Now you have all 3 layers to your camo!

Use a small brush with acetone to clean up the excess polish on the skin.

Finish everythin off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it! 




I absolutely love these! I wish I could wear them longer! I have so many designs to get to right now, but I sure wouldn't mind wearin this design again someday!

Classy Lace

Hey Y'all! 
Today I've got a gorgeous classy lace design. 
It's featurin my favorite Cuccio polish "Bali Bliss!" This polish is just beyond gorgeous and it's so hard to capture it's true essence on camera. You really have to see it in person. It has so much dimension and always looks glassy and perfect!

Here's how:
Start with the perfect base of Cuccio "Bali Bliss."

I'm usin this bundle Monster plate 323 with the lace design.

Start by coverin the image with a white polish, Salon Perfect "Sugar Cube."

Then scrape the polish towards me with my creative shop scraper.

Pick up the image with a rollin motion on my creative shop stamper.

Then I line up my nail to the image and press into the stamper.

Clean your stamper with a piece of tape.

Use a small brush with acetone to clean up any excess polish on the skin. 

Finish off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.

And That's It!




Ugh I just love this look so much! I think I might wear it all weekend because I can't bear to take it off!
I hope y'all love it just as much!

Recycle Mani Monday: Floral

Hey Y'all!
Recycle Mani Monday!
Today I changed my cotton mani into a floral mani. 


Here's How:

I started with my previous cotton bud mani:

I used a dottin tool and a burgundy polish to cover up all the cotton buds and create the base of my flowers. The polish I used was Avon "Very Berry."

Then I went in with a striper brush and lighter pink polish and filled in the middle of the flowers. I used Avon "Parfait Pink."

I went back in with the striper brush and a little more of the berry color on top of the light pink just to add a bit more definition.

Then I quickly went in with a green striper brush (Salon Perfect "Green Stem,") to add a little greenery as leaves.

Here's a closer look at the final design.

Use your favorite top coat to seal it all in. I use Salon Perfect. 

And that's It!




I hope y'all enjoyed this one! I liked this manicure both ways!
