Uhm, yes, traffic... Who ever thought that traffic would ever make it's way into the nail art world? Seriously, who thought of the prompt traffic?
For this one I completely cheated. How else?
I bought these decals from BPS some time ago and they have always ended up on my mother's toes for some reason. But today they are finally making it to my fingers. It came on a big sheet, so I had more than one design to choose from.
So, traffic, road map, same thing!
It wasn't as easy as you would have thought though. Obviously the decals didn't fit my nails properly, so there is some folds and for some reason I ended up with the top coat making holes! Oh well, let's just say it was an old holey map. Hahaha
How do you like my cheating? I'd love to see what the other ladies came up with, so do check out their interpretation of traffic.

#PPSAnailchallenge: Pink
I am at a total loss of words at the moment... Do I mention the weather? Because it's freaking cold! Or do I just jump straight to the second prompt for this week? Ah, let's just jump.
This week's second prompt is pink. Thanks Michelle! Pink? How, what, WHY?! I'm not really a pink person... I know, shock and horror, right? I had a couple of ideas for this one, but obviously, which idea do I choose that I won't totally suck at.
So, as always, I took the easy way out. LoL, no not really, but this was very easy. I started with two coats of Tip Top Toasted Nuts on all my fingers, except my ring finger. My ring finger is sporting two coats of Tip Top Sexy Bikini.
Just look at that pink! Sooo pretty.... Yes, just because I'm not a fan of pink doesn't mean I can't appreciate a pretty polish. And it's all about the polish anyway.
I then added some neon splatter decals to my thumb, index and middle finger. You can find the decals here, it's a big sheet with different designs.
The only problem I had, is that there was only 6 pink splatters. Why only 6? And why 6? I have 5 fingers... Anyway, that's why my pinky has a different decal than the rest.
So, what do you think of my not so pink mani? Do check out what the other ladies did... I'm sure Michelle is going to nail it. Actually, she better, she chose it. Check out the other ladies' mani's.

#PPSAnailchallenge: Sugar Spun
I hope everyone had a good weekend. And good luck for the week ahead, because I know I need it.
The third prompt for the PPSA nail challenge is Sugar Spun. This is something that I have done recently so I wasn't too worried about it.
I started with two coats of Essence Prom-Berry.
Once that was dry, I used an old green polish I bought years ago from Foschini. It's so old that it wasn't even necessary to wait for the polish to go tacky... It was already good to go. I think the name is Yes, other than that it may be #19.
I actually liked how these turned out more than my previous attempt that you can find here.

#PPSAnailchallenge: Red
I'm seriously loving our weather at the moment. It's been raining for the past two days, it's cold and miserable and I love it!! The only problem I have, is that it's wreaking havoc with my pics! I don't have a lightbox, so I just take my pics by the window, but with it being overcast all the time they don't look too great...
Anyway, on to the second post for the PPSA nail challenge. Red, just red, how difficult can that be? I actually had a different idea in mind for this one, but I'll show you that one some other time... Like later in the challenge!
BF went to a Gaming Expo in Town over the weekend and was so sweet to bring something back for me.
Hehe just a small canvas and it looks awesome. And somehow this ended up being the inspiration for this prompt. So, I started with two coats of Tip Top Cherries on my thumb, middle finger and pinky. On my index and ring finger I have one coat of SC Snow me White.
The drips on my index and splatter on my ring is from plate BP-L004, I stamped using Cherries in the Snow. To make the splatter look a bit more faded I painted two coats of Tip Top Perfect Look. Once that was dry, I top coated everything.
Like really? Seche smeared my drips!! I haven't been feeling great this week, so I was not in the mood to redo it. Not that I would have anyway! Hahaha The skull is from plate BP-L006. I left it on the stamper to tape off the cross bones and then stamped it. I kinda like it. Some have mentioned to me that the skull isn't super obvious and that I should have done it differently, but hey, I'd like to see them try it.
