40 Great Nail Art Ideas Does Music

Today's 40 Great Nail Art Ideas challenge is music; instead of doing something more traditional, I did a Snoop Dogg mani!  I feel like such a real rebel wearing this; so out of my comfort zone as I've never taken anything stronger than an aspirin and have never even tried smoking never mind illegal drugs but here's what I came up with!  (I hope no one gets the wrong idea if they see this on my nails as I even wore it to work today!)

Started with a base of two coats each of CND Bicycle Yellow and Pahlish Pistache, no top coat.

Added a coat of Girly Bits What A Rush QD TC.

Sponged Colors by llarowe Camo on the Pahlishes.

Added a coat of Girly Bits What A Rush QD TC.



The next steps took some time and I did some stamping while waiting for polishes to try so no real step by stamp but pretty self explanatory.  Taped off accent nails and did stripes using CND Poppyfield and CND Green Scene; stamped on the sponging using MdU 11, 8 and FUN red stamping polishes using MoYou Back to the 60's -01 and FUN clear jelly stamper for placement.



MoYou Back to the 60's-01





I had pulled this plate as thought I might use it but the image was a little too big; Bundle Monster BM07.


Topped with Girly Bits What A Rush QD TC.



The great thing about the jelly stamper is you can place the images on top of your base imperfections! Stamped ring finger using FunkyFingers Dark Knight using MoYou Roxy Collection-06 and same image from MoYou Back to the 60's-01 on the thumb.



Finished with a coat of Girly Bits What A Rush QD TC to finish.



Here's the other music mani's!

Thanks for looking; have a great (long if you are in Canada) weekend!

Prince Tribute Mani

I was as shocked as most to hear of the sudden passing of Prince last week.  So when I sat down to do my nails last night, while I was humming Little Red Corvette....then Purple Rain.....then When Doves Cry, I did this mani.  

Started with a base of two coats of Lippmann Shoshanna; shown with no top coat.  

While I really wanted to do a water marble base, there's not enough purple Pipe Dreams and I was experimenting with some other polishes and wasn't have that great success.  So decided to go with some sponging for added interest using L'Oreal Pop of Plaid and Essie Shade On.  

After topping with top coat, stamped with Chez Divers 005 using Funky Fingers Gesso.

Added some silver glitter using Konad glitter stripper.

Added image from MoYou Roxy Collection-06 using Funky Fingers Dark Knight.

Made a couple stamper decals.

MoYou Rockstar Collection-13

Added stamper decal which was an image from MoYou Rockstar Collection-13.

Stamped an image from MoYou Back to the 70's-01.  Modified it a bit by removing mouth and added a bit more hair to make it more like the hairstyle I see Prince rocking.  Added some funky purple glasses.  Stamped rain drops on pinky using UberChic UC 3-03, then stamped image on pinky using an image from Fab Ur Nails FUN 4.

MoYou Back to the 70's-01

Added couple of purple doves using an image from MdU 1. 

MdU 1

Added Little Red Corvette decal on thumb, added 1999 from MoYou Zodiac 16, lips from MoYou Bridal Collection-01 (ticked I didn't use smaller lips as I had pulled the image but forgot about it) , Kiss from Chez Divers 001, and music notes from Chez Musique 001.  

MoYou Zodiac Collection-16, 

Top coated it all with Girly Bits What A Rush QD TC to finish.

RIP, Prince.

Thanks for looking!

Digit-al Dozen Does Metal; Day 4

How about a little heavy 'metal' for Day 4 of Digit-al Dozen does metal challenge!

(I had to make pix a little smaller as the pinky was cut off otherwise)

Started with a base of two coats of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls with an accent of Nicole by OPI Hit the Lights from the Selena Gomez collection, two coats, top coated.

Stamped with assortment of images; MJ IV (pinky), MoYou Roxy Collection-06 (index), MoYou Back to the 90's-01 (middle), MoYou Biker Collection-02 (ring and guns on thumb) and MoYou Biker Collection-07 (roses on thumb).  Stamping polishes used were FUN black stamping polish, Mundo de Unas 30 (blue), 9 (red) and 8 (green).

A closer look at a few plates used; this is MoYou Biker Collection 07.

MoYou Biker Collection-02

Top coated with KBShimmer Clearly on top to finish.

I think this is one of the more creative mani's I've done in a while; this is why I always enjoy the Digit-al Dozen challenges even though I always find them challenging!  I don't think I would have done a G N' R mani otherwise but was really happy how it turned out

Here's the other ladies Day 4 mani's!
