Friday Triad: Inspired by Olga (@son_nail)

It's that time again! I can't believe we at the end of another month. I wonder how many Triad posts we have done already...

So this month it was my turn and I chose this mani done by @son_nail. I had loads of floral and negative space looks saved as inspiration, but I didn't want to do floral and not everyone likes negative space... So I chose the least offensive one! 

I started with two coats of Cirque Colors pebble on my thumb, index and middle finger. My pinky has one coat of Sorbet chic me baby.

On my ring finger I have two coats of a random HD polish. The aztec design (thanks Mich)(now you know where it's from), is decals from Aliexpress.

The leaves I stamped with Munde de Unas caramel from Lina Summer 2. So whilst doing this, I realised that I can't place decals in a straight line.... Even when I use my clear stamper!! 

I do like how this turned out, but I don't love it... It doesn't quite grab me like the original did. I think I should have used a different colour on my ring finger. What do you think?

Head on over to Joyce and Michelle to see how they totally rock this!

Thanks for reading!

#52weeknailchallenge: splatter

I had no idea what I wanted to do with this prompt... I have splat decals and I have Lina plates.

So I decided on Lina plates. It just kinda came together but I don't know if it WORKS.

I started with two coats of Pahlish Idris on my thumb and pinky. The rest of them have two coats of a nude HD polish with no name. Can I just say how much I despise polishes that doesn't have a distinctive name or number? I mean it's bad enough when they don't have a name, only a number...

Anyway I then stamped 2 images from Lina make your mark 1 with Mundo de Unas mint and orchid. Then I added as an accent a splat image using Nubar silver mist. A flash shot to show off the holo in Idris.

As I said I'm not sure if it works, maybe the silver stamp was over kill. What do you think? What do think I should have done?

I had to matte it. It dulled the holo completely, so I'm not sure if I should have done that.. Which one do you prefer?

Thanks for stopping by!

#52weeknailchallenge: autumn

This week's prompt is autumn and I was stuck on what to do. I had no ideas whatsoever. I eventually kinda settled on this as I went through my stamping plates in the hopes for inspiration.

I started with two coats of Tip Top army vibes on my thumb, middle finger and pinky. The other two has two coats of a HD polish with no name. I then stamped a leafy image from BP 19 on my index and ring finger with Tip Top lazy lizard. On my thumb and pinky I stamped with Essie leggy legend.

I made a stamping decal for my middle finger. The image is from BP 30. Stamped with Sorbet chic me baby. The leaves are coloured in with leggy legend, the HD polish and Hean City Fashion 167.

I'm not a big fan of this, but apparently everyone else liked it.

So does this represent autumn? What do you think?

Thanks for reading guys!!

#52weeknailchallenge: negative space

So I have realized that I am terrible at explaining things... Here I am randomly doing this 52 week challenge and you have no idea what it is, where or how? So here's a link that will take you to Michelle's blog and she explains it all.

There. Explanation done. Anyway for this prompt, the negative space prompt, I took some inspiration from this mani done by Paulina. I started with two coats of a polish that was gifted to me, it has no name, no number, just HD on the bottle, on my thumb and pinky. On my index, middle and ring finger I stamped using plate BC-10 that was sent to me by Cherry Blossom Store and essence stampy polish white.

I top coated as I was going to use striping tape. I then taped off sections of my nails and used the same HD polish to fill in the blanks.

Top coat over that and then added a square stud to my middle finger. It bothered BF slightly as the stud was off centre, but hey it's not that easy placing it.

So I really like it, but I'm a little iffy about it too. What do you think?
