SNAAARKM Challenge Day 3: Dotting Tool

Hello! So today is day three of the SNAAARKM Challenge! It means its dotting tool day!

I don't own any dotting tools....I use toothpicks with the ends snipped off, but its the same thing practically! You can still make beautiful dots with them! That's what I attempted to do here.

I had this fantastic idea in my head and thought when I translate this to my nails then its gonna be friggen awesome! Yeah its more of meh to me. It didn't come out the way I saw it in my head, but hey do they ever??

For the dots I used the whole rainbow! Really I did, look!

I know you can't tell the orange from the red on my thumb nail, :(. Here is a list of the polishes I used.

Base color: Pure Ice Superstar
Red: Jessie's Girl Wham Bam
Orange: Sally Hansen Crushed
Yellow: Hard Candy Splendid
Green: China Glaze Starboard
Blue: Simply Sweet Blue
Purple: L.A. Colors Striper in Purple.

I wanted it to be like the candy dots you see but with the rainbow effect! This took me back to the 31 Day Challenge when it was Rainbow Day!

Here is a little better of a picture. I think my dots weren't spaced out right or something but I still semi liked it.

31 Day Challenge! Day 30 Inspired By A Tutorial

Good afternoon!

Today is Day 30 of the challenge! I'm still in disbelief that February starts on Wednesday! January has been an awesome month with this challenge, so many exciting things have happened not only with my blog but in my personal life as well and they continue to grow in that area!

I am so thankful that I get to share it with you guys on the blog!

On to the tutorial inspired nails. This tutorial is actually a re-promote from back in October. I kind of went through an "need to practice nail art everyday" phase and this was one of the ones that I was so proud of!

31 Day Challenge. Day 28 Inspired by a Flag.

Hi! * waves intensely*

Sooo.. I have been MIA for the last 2 days on here. I hated it but I was soo busy! Between work I was spending some much needed friend time on Friday. I have a best friend of mine who is moving away at the beginning of March so we were kind of spending time together with some of our other friends bowling and shopping and out to dinner! Then on Saturday I spent the much needed day with my mom. I can't remember the last time her and I actually went shopping and to more than one store! It was soo much fun!

Oh Christmas Tree!

So today I have my final holiday manicure for you guys. Its a Christmas tree!

I was happy with the way this came out, since my nail art isn't at its best I figured maybe half a tree would suffice?

Holiday Design: Glittery Wreath

Hey guys and gals!

Today I have a holiday design for you that is super simple! Its as simple as the candy cane nail I showed you.

Today its a wreath, I love the look of wreaths when people have them on their doors or hanging in stores. I know where I work we have a giant (fake) wreath that has lights and bows on it and it looks so pretty.

So here is how to get your own wreath!

Holiday Designs: Snowmen and Snowladys

Hey everyone!

Hope your all well. Hope your Christmas shopping is all done or getting there. I still have a few things to get but I have made a deadline for myself, of Dec. 15th because last year I was shopping right up til Christmas Eve.

Anyway here is an awesome polish design for you! Its a  snowman and his snowlady even though here in New York we do not have any snow yet.

Cupcake time! Thanks to JulieG
