Born Pretty Store Review/Demo

Hey Y'all!
Today I have another Born Pretty Store Review/Demo!
It's another stampin plate and water decal. 

Here's the demo:
I started with a previous mani.

I'm reviewin Born Pretty Store stampin plate BP-42 with this geometric design.

and I'll be usin my Creative Shop Stamper Set. 

I start by puttin black polish onto the image. I used Fantasy Makers "Witch Black."

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

Pick up the image in a rollin motion with my stamper. Line up my nail and push into the stamper.

There's the image on the nail.

Clean up the stamper with a piece of tape.

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

Next I'm reviewin these water decals. They have a leather/lizard like design. They come on a sheet like this and on the back has instructions on how to use.

I cut them apart and remove the plastic cover and size it to my nail.

Then dunk it into some water and wait for it to separate from the paper backin.

Then line it up with your nail and smooth it on. I like to press it from the center to the outside of the nail and then wrap the ends under my nail. 

It'll look like this.

Then I use my small brush and acetone and gently press against the excess decal til it separates itself.

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

And That's it!

Happy Mother's Day!

Hey Y'all!
Happy Mother's Day to y'all! 
Today I just have a short and sweet post about my momma!

My mom and me have a very special relationship as it's just been us since I was very young and lost my dad. So I've grown up differently with my mom than others and I'm truly grateful for it! My mom is my bestfriend and she's always taken care of me and made sure my dreams have come true! She's everythin a mom should be and more and I feel lucky God selected her for me! 

Today I decided we would have matchin Mommy/Daughter nails, so I've matched mine to hers that I did a few days ago. 
Hers are way more beautiful than mine because we used a more stunnin glitter on hers but I matched as best I could! 
We are both wearin Cuccio "Bali Bliss" and hers are topped with OPI "I reached my gold" and mine are topped with Bonita colors "gold glitter."
I just love this combo and my momma loves her sooo much so that makes me happy. 

I also gave us matchin pedis! 

We are just spendin the day together just relaxin and marathon watchin Mike & Molly! 
Hope y'all have a wonderful day a wonderful day with your mothers!

Abstract Watermelon

Hey Y'all!
I've got an abstract watermelon design today! 
I wasn't plannin to do this type of design til summer rolled around, but I have lost all inspiration lately and this popped into my head. I wanted to do stampin over a different color I was already wearin, but I couldn't find the right design to go over it. So I switched my whole idea and came up with this! 
I wasn't sure about it at first, but I ended up really likin the look of it!


Here's How:
I started with a pink base of Color Club "Electro Candy."

For the stamp I'm usin Born Pretty Store Stamp BP-21

I start by puttin black polish onto the image. I used Salon Perfect "Oil Slick."

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

And pick up the image in a rollin motion with my creative shop stamper.


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

There's the image on the nail.

I cleanup the excess stamp on the skin with a small brush and acetone.

Then I create a green french tip usin China Glaze "Keepin It Teal." I start on one side of the nail and draggin it down the tip.

Then go from the other side and meet them in the middle. 

I let that dry and do a second coat for full opacity.

To finish things off I used a white striper brush from Salon Perfect "White Out."


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

And that's it! 
Here's the video:




Hope y'all enjoyed this random watermelon design!
