Digit-al Dozes Does Col(u)rs Collide; Day 4

It's about time I started to share some Halloween nails and I'm using the Digit-al Dozen colours collide challenge to kick it off!  This was based upon black and white being contrasting colours and the mani has them colliding together for Halloween!  Here's what I came up with!

I started with a base of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls and OPI Black Onyx (and I guess I didn't take any pix as I don't see any when I uploaded!).  Stamped using images from UberChic UC Halloween-03 using Painted Polishes Blanc Slate and Midnight Mischief.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Added dots using CND Electric Orange for a pop of colour interest and filler.

Finished with a final coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Digit-al Dozen Does Colo(u)rs Collide; Day 3

I did these nails shortly after IEC 2019 as I got both the base and the stamping polish there.  Another unusual combination that looks great (IMHO!) and I thought I would share for day 3 of Digit-al Dozen colour collide challenge!  Here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of two coats of LynBDesigns What's the Pointillist, no top coat.  I love this polish; it was a favourite that I had picked up from the event.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using Hit The Bottle Fuchsia Expectations using an image from UberChic UC 27-03.



UberChic UC 27-03.



Added a few dots using Moyra sp. 15 for some bright interest and filler.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

Removal was a breeze!  I don't even know how this happened; maybe too much oil on my nails, not sure but they all pretty much popped off with no issue!

Digit-al Dozen Does Colo(u)rs That Collide; Day 2

Here's a couple colours that collide for day two of Digit-al Dozen challenge!  I love how it turned out...and love when two colours that don't necessarily go well together look great!  

Started with a base of two coats of Girly Bits Peace-Oop, which was one of their September 2016 COTM (where does time fly??  Three years already??), no top coat.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped with an image from Lina Feeling Shapely! 02 using MdU 1.

Topped with original stamped image using image from Lina Feeling Shapely! 08 using Painted Polish Autumn Twilight 2.0 and then stamped the rest of the nails with the same image and stamping polish.

Dotted flower centers using MdU 1.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

Digit-al Dozen Does Colo(u)rs That Collide; Day 1

Not only is it Thanksgiving Day but it is also the first day of Digit-al Dozen week; our theme this month is colours that collide.  This is a rare time that I'm sharing two mani's in the same day so that I can still post for Thanksgiving Day but also try to keep on track for Digit-al Dozen posts.  

I've taken day 1's nails a little literally; the colours actually collide on the nail (versus two colours that may clash) but the good thing is that we have wide berth on how we interpret the challenge!  Here's what I came up with! 

Started with a base of two coats of Cupcake Polish Crazy Mod Love, no top coat.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped with images from Lina Twirls & Swirls 01 using Painted Polish Midnight Mischief and Blanc Slate.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

I took a pix outside the next day so you could see the awesome holoness of Cupcake Polish Mod Love.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!  I hope that you are enjoying the day with family or friends and thinking of everything you have to be thankful for!  I know I am thankful for a lot; I've been blessed with a husband that loves me to pieces even after 26 years of marriage, three wonderful children, a career that challenges me and has provided well for my family and everyone has pretty good health (everyone but me but I'm getting by lol!).  Lastly, I am thankful that I have the means and time to support my nail art hobby and then be able to share it with everyone who chooses to see it on the various social media accounts that I have for over the last nine years and hopefully you enjoy it as well.  Thank you so much!

Polishes used starting at the thumb and going clockwise are Pretty & Polished In the Buff and then alternating nails of SpaRitual Kindness and SpaRitual Positive Vibes.

Topped with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

After making a few stamper decals, applied them.  Images are from Lesly Golden Leaves (thumb), Creative Shop 91 (index), Infinity 65 (middle), Lina 4 Season - Autumn 02 (ring) and Delaney Automne 003 (thumb).  Used assortment of MdU stamping polishes for all the decals.

Absolutely love this stamper decal!  I only wish my nails were wider and longer so that it could really be appreciated!  I'd love to do a mani with this on all nails; it is so cool for sure! It didn't help that I didn't place the decal centered on my nail but sometimes these things happen despite best efforts!

The finished nail; not placed very well but at least you see the leaves well on the one side!  Still love it!

Shadow stamped words on thumb using MdU 2 and 106 using image from Maniology M023.  My test hand shadow stamping was much better and I have a feeling that the solid words are to be stamped before the outlined ones but that's OK!  I'll know better for next time!

Thanks for looking and Happy Thanksgiving!

Yet Another Fall Mani!

Happy Saturday!

Fall colours are beautiful in Ontario right now; I spent a lot of time driving the last few days and it was fantastic to see so much fall foliage with the bright sunny days when I was on the road.

I know Halloween is fast approaching and I have a few Halloween mani's that will be shared soon but I still have no shortage of fall mani's to share including this one; here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of two coats of Sally Hansen Ever Green with accent of Fancy Gloss Pistachio Chip, no top coat.

Topped with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped with image from What's Up Nails B021 with an accent of BundleMonster BM-S207 using MdU 11, 13, 32, 59, 106 and 107.  FYI, the mark to the right of the L on the index was me using acetone to remove a couple little dots of stamping polish that stamped onto the nail and I 'had' to remove them.  Not noticeable once it was top coated but a little noticeable here.  Oh and you might have noticed that the accent nail started out one colour and ended up another for the finished mani; that was because I totally messed up the stamping on the Fancy Gloss, tried to remove it, lifted the polish enough that I had to redo that nail and then decided I wanted them all to match in the end.  That's just how it goes sometimes lol.

Another Fall Mani!

I can't seem to stop doing fall nails!  So many manis, so little time!

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped using images from UberChic Lovely Leaves (thumb), UberChic Lovely Leaves 4 (index, middle and pinky) and UC mini:  Hello Fall & Pumpkin Spice.  Used MdU 9, 11, 13, 32, 46, 59, 106 and 107.  The ring finger was stamped first with MdU 9.
