It's the Birds!!!!

Happy Wednesday My Friends, 

It's the middle of the week already, yay! For me it's actually my Thursday since we have off for Good Friday this Friday. I am so looking forward to a 3 day weekend! 

Today's nails are from a new stamping plate I recently got that I could not wait to use. I am in love with this mani and hope you like it too! I think the birds turned out so cute! Reverse stamping is so much fun and not hard to do either! I love stamping! 

My bases are Polished for Days "Blue Spruce" (green) and P.O.P. Polish "Cold Shoulder" (blue). I stamped the outlines with Maniology "Cocoa" polish and MoYou London Botanical Collection 05 plate. I colored the images with a bunch of stamping polishes I didn't bother to keep track of, lol 😊




Blue Spruce and Cold Shoulder on their own, loved these two together for the base for this mani. 

That's it for today, Have a great day, talk to you soon. Here's Miss Betty, my heart kitty, looking too cute as always!

Let's Paint Some Eggs!

Happy FriYay my loves, 

It's finally FriYay, YAY :) I hope you are well and that the week has been good for you. I am okay. I am having some issues going on in my right thumb joint. About three weeks ago the joint began cracking and popping along with becoming super swollen, inflamed and painful to the touch. I went to the doctor last week and she thought is was maybe Gout and had me take a course medicine. After a week there was no change so I went back yesterday and she now suspects it may be tendonitis. I have to go to an orthopedic specialist now to have them look at it and possibly do an injection to help it. I am currently on Prednisone to see if that helps with the swelling. We shall see. This has been so painful and frustrating as it is my right hand and I am right handed. 

Anyways, onto the nails. Today I have some super cute stamped Easter eggs. I think these came out so cute and I really like them :) 

My bases are Penelope Luz "Aquamarine" (thumb, index and pinky) and Cupcake Polish "Dream" (middle and ring) I stamped the outline with Twinkled T white stamping polish and MoYou London "Festive 60" plate. I colored the images in with all Hit the Bottle pastel stamping polishes that I am being too lazy to type out, lol 😛




Aquamarine and Dream on their own.

That's it for today, talk soon!

Spring Has Sprung....Yay!!!

Happy Spring Loves, 

Spring is finally here!!!! I am so ready for nice weather. This Winter and the gray after gray after gray days we had were really starting to get to me. I need some sunshine and warmth in my life. Here it is finally, yay 😊 Today is supposed to be a really nice day in our area and I cannot wait. 

For my Happy Spring nails I chose this awesome plate that I think the flowers ended up looking great on the yellow background. I also think the pink compliments the yellow quite nicely. I am kinda in love with these nails!

My bases are P.O.P. Polish "Love At Frost Site" (thumb, index & pinkies) and Noodles Nail Polish "Been There, Sun That" (middle & ring). I stamped with Maniology M118 plate and Twinkled T white stamping polish. I colored the images in with Maniology "Monarch Dream", "Limelight" and Twinkled T blue, pink and yellow polishes. The Twinkled T do not come with name labels on the bottles so no names for them.




P.O.P. Polish "Love At Frost Site" (thumb, index & pinkies) and Noodles Nail Polish "Been There, Sun That" (middle & ring). I absolutely LOVE these together ❤

Have a great first day of Spring and I hope you can get outside today and just appreciate that Spring has sprung, YAY. Talk soon. I leave you with Miss Betty looking as cute as can be cleaning herself beside me on the couch. I love this little girl so much, she is my baby girl ❤

St. Paddy's Day 2021

Happy St. Paddy's Day!!! 

Today's post is a super quick one. Here are my St. Paddy nails. I went super simple this year. I am having some severe arthritis issues in my right thumb joint so doing my nails, typing, writing and/or picking up some things has gotten difficult. I do have a doctor appointment tomorrow that I will be talking to the doctor about some of my arthritis issues I've been having. So between my hips and now my thumb hopefully I can get some relief soon! 

My bases are Hit the Bottle "Lucky Spark" (thumbs & pinkies), P.O.P. Polish "Slush Fund" (ring & index) and Colores de Carol "Rio" (middle). I stamped with Maniology "Lilypad" polish and Whats Up Nails B017 plate.




Hit the Bottle "Lucky Spark" (thumbs & pinkies), P.O.P. Polish "Slush Fund" (ring & index) and Colores de Carol "Rio" (middle) all on their own, love these three together! 

Have a great and happy St. Paddy Day, talk soon!

Hippity Hoppity Hop

Happy Sunday Loves, 

Hi my friends. Hope you are well and enjoying the nice weather we've been having. I know I sure have been 😊
Today I have my next Easter nails. I chose to do a cute little Easter Bunny and a bunny butt. I think these are cute.

My bases are ILNP "Wrapped Up" (thumb, index & pinkies) and P.O.P. Polish "Chill Pill" (middle & ring). I stamped with MoYou Lobdon "Festive Collection 09" plate and Maniology "Rave Babe" polish. I colored the images in with Sinful Colors "Snow Me White". I used Painted Polish "You Drive Me Glazy" on the bottoms of the stamped nails. I also put a coat of BaronessX "Amatista" on top of "Wrapped Up" to give some purple sparkle to those nails.




Wrapped Up and Chill Pill on their own. I think these are so pretty together.

That's it for today. I leave you an old pic of The Girl (rest in peace sweet girl) that I  found on my tablet. I still feel so sad that she is gone and miss her every day. I do love this picture if her. She was so cute and so loved by us.

It's Never Too Early For Peeps!

Happy Hump Day My Loves, 

Hello my friends. It's the middle of the week, we made it, yay! Not sure where you are but the weather here is absolutely lovely the last two days. It has been warm and sunny. It is supposed to stay like this for the next several days. Spring is definitely right around the corner thank goodness. I am so ready for Spring and sunny days after the endless gray days we had this past Winter. 

So, even though Spring has not officially sprung yet I decided it was time to do my first Spring and Easter nails of this year. I chose to do green with some reverse stamped Peeps candy on them. I just received this new plate from Maniology in the mail and Monday and could not wait to use the Peeps candy image on it so here you are. I love this mani so much. I am not the biggest fan of eating Peeps candy but think they are absolutely adorable so I do love them for their cute factor! Hope you like these nails as much as I do :) 

My base is Cupcake Polish "Lemongrass". I stamped with Maniology M189 plate and "Bam White" polish. I colored the images in with a nail art brush and Maniology "Monarch Dream", "Sweet", Hit the Bottle "Hello Buttercup" and Twinkled T light blue polishes.




Lemongrass on it's own, love this pretty shade of green and think it was the perfect base for these nails. It's like they Peeps are sitting in some Easter grass in a basket! 

That's all for today. I leave you with some pics of my horse, Dusty Bucks, from yesterday on his 25th birthday. I went out for lunch to see him and my mom and I had a scare with him. He laid down to roll and couldn't get back up for about an hour. It sucked. This is not the first time this has happened, he's struggled a couple times prior to this the last few months. I know this is just the beginning with him of more times to come that he will struggle. My family and myself have been down this path many times before with horses. We have no idea at his age how long we may have left with him but in whatever time we do have with him we will enjoy him, spoil him and love him. It will be hard when it is his time to go to Rainbow Bridge as he is the last horse in our family and it will be weird with no horses once he goes. I hope we have a few more years with him, he is such a good horse with a super sweet personality. I love him and he is my buddy. Talk soon! Have a great rest of the week!
