Day 8 Color Blocking

I did this very loosely...I was actually just playing around with a glitter mani that I had done.  I thought, WOW, this would work Great for this challenge...

Here is the line draw that I did to play around:


Here is what it looks like filled in:



I think it turned out really nice and I hope you like it to.

I used Lush Lacquer Do You Pink I'm Sexy as the glitter...then filled in with various WnW colors.  (Note: the same ones used on the Puzzle Manicure.  I love these colors together.  :D

Day 6 GlitterBOMB!

Yup. AS you can see from the title...yeah...like home for me, with my love of GLITTERS!

The tough part was which GLITTER to choose. 

I decided to use one that I have not yet featured on my blog yet, being so new into my possession.

I started with a base that was made by a lady who is looking to get into making nail polish. Give her a shout out on my post on my FB HERE.

Here it is: called Blue Morpho:




 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
And here is my manicure with the overlay, 2 coats, of Glitzology Boy Girl Party! YuM!

Day 5 Decals

OK, here is my Day 5 post, Decal nails.
 Not too bad...except that, um, 5 minutes after this post, the ones on the tips started to lift.  I am going to carefully remove them and change  my manicure, I think...

Day 2 Accent Nail



Ok, so here is my day 2 manicure: Accent nail.  I used SH Luster Shine in Azure as my main color and base for Glitzology Bun In The Oven as the accent nail, one coat.  Then I overlaid it all with HK Girl Topcoat.

Came out pretty special and I love the combo.  :D

Rules and Information

 
 
Hi all!  Yep!  I'm gonna go for it!  This one is unique. Depending on your comfort level, you can do the harder challenge (#1) or if you are newbie and very uncomfortable with your skills, you can do the more simple challenge (#2).
 
She is allowing people to start working on the challenge now so hopefully I can get them all done.  :D  I have decided to postpone my new nail-growth test until after these two challenges...
 
Here is her website about the different challenge items.
 
From her post:
"I will be hosting a 28 day nail art challenge in February. Each day has 2 choices one aimed to be simple and one a wee bit more difficult that way more people can play along.  Anyone wanting to join is more than welcome, blogger or not, this is to help us all improve our art skills. I am posting early so we can work ahead, as 28 days of constant changing is tough. For bloggers I will attempt to set up an inlinkz code (if I can figure out how.) :) I hope to see LOTS of designs on February 1!!"
 
Here are the InLinkz codes, more for my information than for yours.
 
Just PM her on FB to let her know that you will be joining the challenge and be sure to like her FB page.


I hope you will decide to follow along!
