ABC Challenge: D is for Dotticure

 It's week four of the ABC Challenge and I finally have a list made out of what I plan on doing for the rest of the challenge! Woohoo! Now I just hope I can execute them the way I see them in my head! :/ Today I decided on a look I had done a while back, when I was first starting to play with my polish and I hadn't even started my blog yet. I have a picture of it on my first post along with several other crazy looking manis,which you can find here. It's not much of a post really, but a gallery of photos that I had taken and just slapped on to the page, but it's funny to see then vs now! 

Very VERY Late Day 11 "Polka Dot" Mani

Yes I know, I'm a day late ( several dollars short too!) I'm still having some issues with my pictures coming out all funky colored. My phone and my camera are being a pain in the ass! The pix I get from the camera are green...idk why. The camera pix are good but I took like a bazillion of them and my hand was only steady for about 3! FML I think I need to get the camera serviced. Oh well.

So here it is...finally!

 

 

I started with 2 coats of Elle Go Go Coco

 

Then 2 coats Orly Buried Alive to one side of the thumb, index and ring fingers.

 

I added the dots on Go Go Coco with Buried Alive Elle Bright Young Thing

 and on Buried Alive with Go Go  Coco.

 

Ok, now I need to go so some camera hunting....I know I have another 1 or 2 laying around here somewhere!

 

Make sure to check out the other ladies who are participating in this challenge! I'm sure they were on time with their homework! LOL

 

Don't forget that if you aren't already a follower or if you haven't liked my Facebook Page go a head and do it! =) Once I reach 100 on either one I will be hosting my first giveaway! And I have some really cool prizes for you all!

My Favorite Things Challenge: Day 9 "Flowers"

I wasn't sure what to do for this mani, I have several stamp plates with flowers but it seems that every single time I try to stamp for my challenges it turns into a fail. So I decided to just do basic dotting flowers. I hope you all like. =)

 

 

I started with 2 coats of Zoya Kimber.

 

I almost didn't get this color because I was already getting Joy and they are pretty similar, but I am so happy I did. The golden shimmer is so pretty, unfortunately it was hard to capture in my photos.

 

It makes me think of watermelons!

 

Next I used Sinful Colors Easy Going, a very pale pink cream to make my flowers and dots.

 

I decided to layer my dots, it looked a little funky without the layering.

 

Originally I was going to put flowers on all of my fingers but it was too much and looked a bit junkie.

 

Well, only 1day left of this challenge! It went really FAST! Make sure you check back Thursday for the last post in this challenge!

 

 

Make sure you check out the rest of the mani's the other ladies have done!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



31 Day Challenge Day 4 "Green"



I'm having a busy week, between the challenges and family thing and now I've started walking with my cousin everyday. ( Gotta get this fat ass in shape! ) But the challenge must go on!

For my green I used China Glaze In The Lime Light

 

 

This is 4 coats, being a neon it is a very thin formula.

 

Then I drew on some leaves? flowers? I don't know what it is. LOL

 

I used Kiss nail art polishes in white and silver then dotted using black over silver.

 

Then I added black rhinestones.

 

I like how this turned out. This wasn't what I had originally planned to do for this part of the challenge. I was suppose to do a snake skin mani using the paper towel technique. Unfortunately that was a Major FAIL! I don't know how that technique can even work, it was quite difficult. Has anyone tried it? If so, do you have any pointers? I'd really like to make it work.

 

Don't forget to check out all the other talented ladies participating in this challenge!

My Favorite Things Challenge Day 5...

Polka Dots...

I'm rushing to get this done. I actually did a mani last night for this challenge but after I looked at it I hated it. It was POO! I spent all day staring at it and loathing it but I couldn't change it because I was keeping my grandpa company while my grandma was having her eye surgery.

As soon as I got home I had to change it! I'm still not very happy with what I have...It looks great but it doesn't want to photograph well at all!

 

 

 

Left to right:

Snow Me White, Let's Talk, Dream On, 24/7 

 

The problem I am having with this mani is that all the colors are true except Let's Talk.

 

It looks kind of blue in these pictures but it's really purple,

one that I can only describe as electric purple.

 

Maybe it's just me. I don't know. Either way...this is my polka dot mani! I hope everyone is having a good week so far! I'll be back tomorrow with a green mani and a new technique, if all goes as planned! Later gaters! ;)

 

 

Don't forget to check out what the other talented ladies have done with their polka dots!!!
