Pride Month!

 I did these nails for Pride Month last year but didn't get around to sharing them so thought I had better ensure they got posted this year.  I have a couple others to share too; hopefully before the end of the month!  Here's what I came up with!


Started with a base of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, three coats and top coat. Stamped with an image from Creative Shop 211 using MdU 4, 11, 13, 39 and Painted Polish Stamped in Royalty. 


Topped with KBShimmet Clearly on Top. 


Added words on the ring using Painted Polish Midnight Mischief from the MoYou London What The Plate Collection-02.

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day!


I didn't plan on sharing these nails so didn't take pictures as I did them as I normally do as I go along, but I decided to share them so only started taking pictures when almost finished.  This is a base coat of two coats of Essie Cyber Society, then stamped with light purple MdU stamping polish using Hit The Bottle Vintage Grunge, then adding random daisies from Lina 4 Seasons-Spring 02 using Painted Polish Blanc Slate.  Dotted floral centers using the Mdu as well as stamped ring finger with UberChic mini:  Mother's Day using Painted Polish Blanc Slate. I had used the Moyra Supersided stamper to shrink the image.

Happy Star Wars Day!

I did these nails last year so if you follow CNF on IG, you've already seen them before.  I didn't have time then to do a blog post so am sharing them now.  Here's what I came up with!


MdU SF Star Wars.  I didn't use this plate but thought I would which is why I had pulled it.


MdU XL Star Wars


Started with a base of ILNP My Cat Suit, no top coat.


Topped with Sally Hansen Hue There?


Mdu Mod 449


After topping with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top, sponged some creme polishes for a galaxy look on the middle and ring fingers.  Stamped images from MdU Star Wars 3 (middle), MdU Star Wars (ring) MdU Mod 449 (pinky) MDU XL Star Wars (thumb and middle) using Painted Polish Blanc Slate and Midnight Mischief.  The silver on the thumb is using Barry M Foil Effects 319, the shadow stamping on the thumb is MdU 15 mixed with Painted Polish Stamped in Denim and the thumb is MdU 65 and Painted Polish Stamped in Sand.

Stamped using Lina Feeling Shaely 02 using MdU 1 with accent nail from MoYou London Pro XL 2.
