Day 7 - Happy Valetines Day

So my original plans were to create a landscape on all my nails.  I wanted to stamp the cherub image from my image plates on my thumb and make a sky background with blue polish and clouds in the foreground.  With red Cina hearts glued on top. 

Well I was WAY too tired after my weekend.  I work all weekend at the hospital leaving me super tired Sunday nights.  I ended up sleeping 15 hours.  And only woke up 2 hours before leaving for work.  So I decided to slap on some Strobe Light glue on these pink Cina hearts instead.

Happy Valetine's Day.  Hope you enjoyed the week of V-day nails.  I'm enjoying myself here at work with the girls. :)

Day 6 - Pepto-Pink Valentine

If you haven't met this glitter yet.  It's called Strobe Light.  I LOVE it.  My current favorite glitter.  Super tired so I'm only posting pics today.  Hopefully I can complete my big plans tomorrow before work.

Day 4 - The Anchors Away Valentine

Here's my China Glaze Anchors Away V-Day manicure.  I started out with Pelican Gray.  I find it odd that it looks almost purple in these pictures.  It's really a very subtle gray.  Then I added a the nail design using my brand new Bundle Monster plates!  I used my absolute favorite pink of all time Ahoy! over the gray.

This is my very first full nail stamp.  I can now understand why all the girls complain about the image being too small for the thumb nail.  I wasn't too bothered by it.  Probably because I knew I was going to take it off in a few hours. More MORE MOREEEE V-day manis to do.

But, As you can see I'm still perfecting my stamping technique.   It's getting better.

Tomorrow's my Anti-Pink Valentines Nails.

Day 2 - The Funky French Valentine

So on Day 2 Valentine's nail I attempted my very first french manicure... It ended up being a Funky French manicure at that.  I'm no where near as good at these as Chloe.  Here nails are always perfection.  I think mine are until I get out my dad's camera.  Then I see the uneven polish and the dry cuticles.  AND the bald spots at the tips.  Ooops.

I used China Glaze's Ahoy and Branding Iron for this look.  I felt like the Branding Iron tips look like chocolate next to the super pink Ahoy.  These bright pinks are my favorite nail color.  My arsenal is building up with them.

What I used.

I used a nail brush from Born Pretty to achieve the narrow tips.  All in all this being my first time I've ever free-handed nail art I'm not too disappointed.  However the girls at work were!! One of the girls took one look and said "That's it.  I'm not impressed."  She was expecting more nail stampies.  Oh well I love it. :)

Tomorrow I've got a super simple, vampy Valentine's nail.
Edit: It's not so simple any more :P
