Floral Wrap

I am on a slight catchup with my manicures.

I did this one back in October.  Loved this combination.  I used some self adhesive nail wraps for the two accent nails.

26 Great Nail Art Ideas - Green Freestyle

This is the 13th manicure of the 26 Great Nail Art Idea's Challenge.

This fortnight the theme is Green Freestyle.  I have chosen water decals for my freestyle.

I have used these water decals here before, about 2 years ago.  

Amazing how by just changing the colour of the polish/lacquer gives the manicure a completely different feel and look.

Rosy Pink Decal Nails

As the title suggests, a rose manicure with rose full nail water decals.

26 Great Nail Art Ideas - Mixed Tape

This is the 11th manicure of the 26 Great Nail Art Idea's Challenge.

The challenge this fortnight is Mixed Tape.

I was really stuck on what to do.  This is what I ended up with, The two accent nails, I first applied the gold polish and let dry.  Once dry, I applied some striping tape and went over it with the pink.
Result :)

26 Great Nail Art Ideas - Red and Pink - Skittlette with Water Decals

Well it's now the 8th manicure of the 26 Great Nail Art Idea's Challenge.

The challenge this fortnight is Red and Pink.

I've also incorporated a gradient which makes this manicure a skittlette.  And I had to add a few water decals, I used pink and red rose decals which match the manicure colours perfectly.

26 Great Nail Art Ideas - Pastel Christmas

6th manicure of the 26 Great Nail Art Idea's Challenge.

The challenge this week is Pastel Christmas.

I did this manicure a week before the last challenge here.  This was going to be Christmas Preparations, then I read that the next one was Pastel!  So I saved this for now :)

I loved how this turned out, love all the snowflake decals on the nails, so very christmassy, don't you think.

26 Great Nail Art Ideas - Halloween In The Wrong Colours

Challenge number 2 - Halloween In The Wrong Colours.

This was hard to think of in terms of colours, as most colours can be used for Halloween, green, orange, blue, black, white, red and purple! The only one I could think of was pink not really Halloweeny :)

So here is my sparkly, blingy pink Halloween manicure. I think simple but effective?

For the silver nails I used an Orly silver as a base then put the LA Girl glitter on top.

40 Great Nail Art Ideas - Books

Week 49 of the 52 week 40 Great Nail Art Idea's Challenge.

Three  more weeks to go ......

Challenge this week is Books.

I used to read a lot, but haven't read anything for a while.  The last book I completed was the BFG and this was reading to my son at bedtime about one to two years ago.  We started Danny, the Champion of the World, but never finished it.

Anyway, I was stuck for inspiration, so I opened up Amazon, the page loaded and the first thing I saw was the book I've taken inspiration from.  I just like the colours and the flowers.  I thought I would be able to capture this image quite easily.  Overall I am really pleased how this manicure turned out (unlike last week!).

I did the nail art using the pink PIA lacquer and white and green acrylic paint.  I also used Orly Dazzle on my pinkie.

So without further a do...

Inspired by this book cover.
