Stars!


I've had these pretty cool nails in archives for quite some time.  Usually if they haven't posted by now, I found some flaw with them, or had cooler nails to share than these.  Which I can't imagine because I think these are pretty cool, which makes me wonder, why didn't I share these sooner?  What other nails made the grade when these never?  I can't recall what happen four years ago, I just know these haven't been shared.  Until now.  Here's what I came up with!


Started with three coats of Bourjois Paris Bleu Fabuleux, no top coat.


Topped with Fun Lacquer Daydreamer (2015 Limited Edition). 


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Stamped using images from UberChic UC 28-02 using Painted Polish Blanc Slate.  I can't remember if there's a single star image on the plate or I isolated one of the images, but somehow, the single star was on the accent nail. 


Topped with a coat of Girly Bits Glitter Glaze, when somewhat dry, topped with a final coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.



Thanks for looking!

Neon Floral Nails!

These are one of my way back daisy mani's; this is from February 2020 and to be honest, I'm not sure why I haven't shared it yet.  The colours look like Halloween but I'm sharing them now as I could easily wear these in the heat of the summer!  Here's what I came up with!


Started with a base of Painted Polish Midnight Mischief, topped with Lilypad Lacquer Itty Bitty 4, no top coat.  I remember when these glitters came out; I bought them all.  Promptly wore this one and then none of them have been worn since.  And this was five years ago! I like them, just don't like glitter removal.


Stamped lines with image from Lina Born to Sail 01 using Painted Polish Blanc Slate, then added flowers from Lina 4 Seasons-Spring 02 using MdU 80.


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Dotted floral centers using Painted Polish Blanc Slate.


Decided I needed a few more flowers, so added them using same plate and colours on the lines, then topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top. 


Thanks for looking!

Happy Canada Day!

Happy Canada Day to my fellow Canadians!


Started with a base of two coats of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, no top coat.  The thumb also has a coat of Painted Polish 2019. 


Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


CjS H-113



Stamped using Clear Jelly Stamper CjS-257 for all images except the word Happy and the heart, which is from CjS H-113, using MdU 11 and Konad Red and Painted Polish Blanc Slate.


Topped with a final coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top. 


Did Ms. Cindy slightly different but still cool using same plates and polishes.


Happy Canada Day!

Waves



I love to watch the waves in the ocean and take a lot of pictures of the waves coming in, rolling and then crashing to the beach.  Really, anything to do with water, I'm in.  I did a day trip to specifically to Nazare (IYKYK) when I did a European cruise a few years ago as I really wanted to see the 50, 60, 70 or even 80+ feet high waves and although they were large, they weren't the monster waves I was looking for but we still seen lots of waves and the coast line was still stunning.  Apparently they were the really big waves the day before we visited but it is one of those things onthat you have to be at the right place at the right time.  I do hope to return someone and see them.  In the meanwhile, these waves will have to do!


Started with a base of Morgan Taylor Powers of Persuasion, no top coat.


Topped with a coat of Stella Chroma Ghost, PPU September 2022.  Layering Ghost was the right call; it added a lot of umph to the base!



Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.



Stamped with image from Marianne Nails n. 53 using Painted Polish Blanc Slate, Moyra SP 19, and Painted Polish Stamped in Periwinkle, no top coat.



Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

You Are Getting Sleepy, Very Sleepy!


These nails are mesmerizing!  They are also the second oldest nails on my camera roll that haven't been shared yet, dating back to June 28, 2018!  Wow!  I know they are older nails as I don't do this pose any more.  I don't remember consciously deciding to change it, I just know over time it has changed.  I won't say evolved as that implies that it's better and I can't say that is the case lol!  Although I suppose this pose is better for the new rectangle images on IG now!


Started with a base of two coats of Different Dimension Kiss Me Under The Light of a Thousand Stars, no top coat.  It's no secret this is one of my favourite polishes.  I have several backups and use it often when I just can't pick which polish to use!


Topped with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Stamped using an image from Apipila Super Placa M using Funky Fingers Dark Knight, no top coat.  (This might be Pueen 59; not sure though.)


Topped with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.


I have around 300 manis in draft and probably the same number still to upload from my camera; however, it is getting harder and harder to post manis that aren't blue or daisies lol, and I do try to change things up when I'm not sharing holiday or themed nails.  I haven't been regularly doing my nails the last two or so years since my nail issues started so a lot of what is being posted is from the archives.  So I hope you enjoy the shared ones, even though I may be sharing a string of blue or daisy ones!

Thanks for looking!

Shells!

Another tropical mani with these shell nails!   I think this base is perfect for these nails as it looks like the beautiful blues of the ocean where you find shells!

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top.


Stamped using B. 11 Summer Paradise using Painted Polish Blanc Slate, no top coat.
