Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!  Whether you are spending time with the one that you love, or your Valentine is you, whatever you are doing, have a great day! 

I know the day can be just another day to a lot of people, but the holiday lover in me likes to do mani's for all the holidays so here is a final Valentine's Day mani!  Again, not very traditional but hopefully you like it! Here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of Different Dimension (Blue) Da Ba Dee, OPI The I's Have It and Rimmel Blue Eyed Girl.  Two coats except the Different Dimension which is three.

After wrapping the tips again on the glitter, added a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

I had made stamper decals using accent nail polishes with images from XY-J27 (middle) and MJ JR-1 (thumb); stamped them directly on the nail.  Stamped image from MoYou Festive Collection-20 on thumb. And yes, the image was small enough and placed that I did manage to stamp the "s" in Valentine's but it's not obvious due to hand placement but it's there!

Did gradient stamping using Moyra SP05 and Funky Fingers Gesso using image from XY-B07 (acrylic plate) for index and ring.

Finished with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Thanks for looking!

Valentine Sweater Nails

It was a chilly -15C/5F with a windchill of -25C/-13F this morning when I got into my vehicle to go to work. Thank goodness for heated seats as it seemed that the car didn't get warm until I got to work! But it's a perfect day to share sweater nails with a Valentine theme as Valentine's is just around the corner! Here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of pink texture skittles; I was really surprised I had so many shimmery pink textures!  Used either two or three coats of Sinful Surreally Sweet, Sally Hansen Sugar Shimmer Work of Tart, Sally Hansen Sugar Shimmer Berried Under, Sally Hansen Sugar Shimmer Cinny Sweet and Rimmel Candyfloss Cutie.

I waited about an hour for them to dry and texture up.  Then stamped using MoYou Fashionista Collection-03 on all fingers except thumb which is BM-H01.  I had the darnedest time getting that thumb image to work.  Not one clear stamper would work and I had to use my regular go to marshmallow but then couldn't see it well for placement and of course, stamped it a bit crooked!

Have a great weekend and try to stay warm if it's cold in your area too!
