Aren't These Fun??

These fun and bright nails are perfect for summer!  

Started with a base of Dior Blop and Yves St. Laurent Gris Underground, two coats, no top coat.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using image from Lina Make Your Mark 02 using MdU 35 and Mdu 73.

Stamped with MoYou Pro 14 using MdU 52. 

Decided that this was a little plain, so added dots in different sizes using dotting tool and MdU 52.

Swirls!

Dance Legend has some great polishes, which makes me wonder why I don't wear them more often.  Come to think of it, I know why.  Too many polishes!  I'm glad I was able to wear this one at least!  I wonder if they are still in business.  Does anyone know?  I don't see many posts about them now as I did years ago, probably because there are now so many polish options with the indie polish explosion.  

Started with a base of two coats of Dance Legend Wow Prism Night Ranger, with a little extra at the tips.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using image from Moyra 54 Matrix using a combination of MdU 91 and Painted Polish Blanc Slate.

Time Flies

Oh my, time flies.  I have commented many times before that I have loads of draft nails as I do my nails way more often than I post.  So I'm trying to post some of the archived nails while I have been on a mani hiatus while my one nail grows out and came across this mani.  From five years ago to the day.  Five!  Where does the time go?  Time certainly doesn't stand still.  

Started with a base of Sinful Colors Blue La La, two coats, no top coat.

UC 7-02

Topped with Seche Diamond Dust, no top coat.

Topped with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

 Enjoy every day as time does fly!

Invisible

Just like the song Invisible by Alison Moyet, the stamping on these nails are (almost) invisible!  I think I took the tone on tone stamping a little too literal!  

Started with a base of two coats of Black Dahlia Lacquer The Fool Who Ripped His Pants (PPU February 2022), no top coat.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using image from Moyra 39 Eastern Mystic using MdU 91.

It's #MusicManiMonday and this mani is doing double duty; Alison Moyet's tune Invisible.  

Thanks for looking!

Tiny Bubbles!

 Today is #MusicManiMonday and these nails are inspired by Tiny Bubbles by Don Ho.  

Started with a base of blue Glam Polishes.  Starting at thumb and going clockwise:  Glam Batch 11, Glam Virgo, Glam Someday My Prince Will Come, Glam Crash and Glam Virgo.

Floral Stripes

It's been a hot minute since I posted last.  Sorry, but sometimes life and work get busy and blogging suffers.  But I have a free evening and I hope to draft a few posts including this one!

UberChic 29-02.

Started with a base of two coats of Olive Ave Polish Skylight, no top coat.

Topped accent nails with Polished for Days Esperance.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped lines with image from Lina Feeling Shapely! 01 using MdU 80 and flowers from UberChic 29-02 using MdU 80 and 15.  

Finished with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

As if these weren't busy enough, I decided to add a few dots for some interest using Painted Polish Blanc Slate.

 Which version do you like best?  I think I prefer with the dots.  More whimsical!

Dandelions

My granddaughter says, look at all the flowers, Grandma!  However, those flowers are really dandelions that are in abundance right now, at least on my lawn.  So I thought these nails were appropriate, even though the flowers aren't yellow!

Started with a base of BKind Les Hamptons, no top coat.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

After waiting for about half an hour for it to dry, did a gradient using the base polish, Essie Walking the Walk and Quo Stormy Night.

Stamped using images from Nicole Diary L20 using Painted Polish Blanc Slate.

Daisies!

Another variation of my favourite nail design with daisies!  All the daisies on my nails!  The great thing is that there are so many stamping plates that have daisies that with some different polishes and different stamping plates, you can change up the look and create something different than the last time.  I should create a new label of daisies, as I have so many daisy nails!  Anyway, here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of Color Club Spell It Out with accent nails of Morgan Taylor Take Me To Your Tribe, no top coat.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

KADS Ocean 017

Stamped lines using KADS Ocean 017 using MdU 91.

Stamped daisies with image from CjS V-37 using Painted Polish Blanc Slate.

Added dots using BKind B-a-n-a-n-a-s.

 Stay tuned for more daisy (or floral) nails; you know at some time, I'll be sharing more!
