Random Nails Spam

Hello friends,

Hope you are all having a good week.  Mine is just okay.  I am really just so sad this week with Dad dying, sigh.  It's going to take time and I don't think I'll ever really get used to him being gone, it just sucks on so many levels.  It's so weird without him.  Mom is hanging in there, she's a rock.  I don't have a whole lot to say today.  I do have my nails to post that I did for Dad for his memorial that I hope to get up maybe tomorrow night or the weekend along with what I wrote and said at the memorial.  It was a nice memorial and so many people came and for that I was very proud to be my Dad's daughter.  I'll write more about that in my post for Dad I do.  The following manis are ones I've done recently and haven't posted.  There's some stamping, glittter, saran wrap, a dotticure and a brush swirl.  I hope you enjoy them. Here you go:

Here I used a base of Orly "Key Lime Twist" and stamped with Sinful Colors "Black Out" using Winstonia Plate # W203 and then put one coat of China Glaze "Fairy Dust" on top of the stamps and a coat of Ozotic "Beam 908" on the other nails. I like this image and next time I use it, it will be crisper and clearer.  I am definitely learning that stamping does indeed take practice, but, I am loving stamping so much :)

Key Lime Twist on it's own.  I love, love this bright neon :) 

Here I did a dotticure using Essie "Blossom Dandy" as my base and Essie "Peach Side Babe", Essie "Make Some Noise", Essie "Melody Maker" and China Glaze "Escaping Reality" for the dots, then I put one coat of a Melly Mix on top of all nails.

 

 

Blossom Dandy by itself.

 I did some stamping for these nails using Essie "Make Some Noise" as a base and accents of a Claire's glitter no name and then stamped using Born Pretty Plate 610 and Konad white stamping polish.  I then put a coat of Indigo Bananas "SF 35 Holo Top Coat" on non-accent nails.

 

 

 

Make Some Noise on it's own.

OPI "Pink Friday" is my base here and a brush swirl using OPI "Can't Find My Czechbook", OPI "A Grape Fit" and China Glaze "Boho Blues" on my accents, then a coat of China Glaze "Fairy Dust" on top and a coat of then a coat of NYC Sparkle Top Coat (unsure of name, label is off) on top of the rest of my nails.

 

 

Pink Friday by itself.  I love this shade of pretty pastel pink.

My base here is China Glaze "Tart-y For the Party" then I used OPI "Super Cute In Pink" and OPI "My Pal Joey" to create the saran wrap nails.  I did these by putting random drops of both polish on my nails, then took a piece of crumpled up saran wrap and dabbed the polish drops to create this look. I then stamped using Winstonia plates W208, W117 and W217 and Sinful Colors "Snow Me White" to stamp with.  Then I used a coat of China Glaze "Fairy Dust" on top of my stamped nails and a coat of Indigo Bananas "SF 35 Holo Top Coat" on the rest.

Polish & Purrs,

Melly
