Hey Yall! Around Christmas time I saw a Barbie doll that was made for Tokidoki on facebook....I HAD TO TRY IT!!! LOL As you may know I love Tokidoki and the Barbie doll was so fly! I love the colors and the style!Of course the Barbie was inspired by Robin Moses!
To create the design I used inspiration from her outfit and purse. I painted the her face on the thumb with a black backround. I did the Leopard legging pattern on the index and pinky fingers. I did the purse pattern on the ring finger and the Barbie and Tokidoki logos on the middle finger.
I hope y'all like it! You can purchase this set on my web store here for $25 with FREE SHIPPING!
Hey Y'all. I have decided to give my nails a break from the long and inlaid designs. I'll be changing my design weekly so those I will post here. This week I went with a simple leopard design with a funky twist. Hope you like it!
To create this look I used Color ClubEarthy Angel and Rebel Spirit and Ruby Kisses Pure Black polishes.
Hey Y'all! I have some new Valentine's Day sets available on my webstore that I'd like to share. Every month I have a sale that last the whole month long. January's sale is $5 off all sets and free shipping to USA & Canada!
Hey Y'all! As promised, here is part two of my New Year's design. As I said yesterday, when I got in the middle of doing my nails I decided to do each hand a different color. I realized that I had the same decorations in pink, silver and white. I decided to go for it because it would be a nice contrast to the dark colors I have on my left hand.
I used a mixture of NSI Radiant White and NSI Tie Dye Pink to make a pastel pink. I should have used the NSI Superfine Bold White in the mix because as you can see they didn't blend so well...Oh well, lesson learned =P Anyways then I used a silver holographic glitter acrylic I made with glitter from Designer Nail Supply (won in a contest) and NSI Radiant White on the tip.
I decided not to record doing my left hand as it is not a pretty site. =P I am practicing sculpting Stilletto tips and had tried out the purple & black on a stiletto....but it popped right off! XD I knew I needed to practice a while before doing it on my own nails plus I wanted to see how it would look. Having said all that, I decided to continue my practice while recording the design in these colors. Hope you all enjoy!
Hey Y'all! The design that I am about to show you was intended to be a full hand design. Unfortunately there was a bit of a mishap and the main nail got lost! LOL!!! But I definately wanted to show you all the rest of the design before the Holiday came upon us. This was another hand painted design so of course I needed to consult with Robin Moses' videos to get my inspiration! I used several products from Hypnotix Boutique LLC. I have them listed in the videos that I will post below. The color acrylics I used were Bold White and Live It Up Sparkle along with an iridescent lilac glitter mix I made a long time ago and the purple holographic diamond confetti I got from Born Pretty store. The acrylic paints that I used were dark purple, green, white and gold.
Now let me give you the background info on this design because it's funny...=) I wanted to make a purple design for Christmas and the 1st thing that came to mind was the Sugar Plum Fairy from the Christmas ballet the Nutcracker. After google pictures for inspiration I figured out the position for my fairy and of course decided to put her on the Thumb nail of the design. I also came across pictures of Sugar plums and sugar plum decoration so I decided to make a Christmas tree on the ring finger and make a garland on the rest as the manicure line.
After successfully getting the nails done and the design painted and recorded of the tree and garland pictures, I started out with the hardest one...the fairy. I got all the way to the end of the painting and it actually was looking kind of awesome but then I totally went coocoo and messed it up! XD So I took off the paint and decided to start over another day because I was obviously sick of it. When I went to look for the nail to redo it a few days later....I couldn't find it anywhere!!! I think that my cats may have been playing with it....I bet now that I have posted the video I'll find it in a corner somewhere on Christmas morning LOL! Don't they just look like trouble! =)
Anyway, I decided to just post the garland and tree designs in time for Christmas. The video below is what I recorded of painting the fairy. I sped it up a lot. It's pretty funny watching it go wrong! XD I hope all have a blessed and happy Holiday!
Hey Y'all! Here is another Christmas design. This one has a 3D Gingerbread man. I used NSI Leaf Green and Fire Engine Red along with a green and red glitter mix on the tip. Then I used brown acrylic from Born Pretty store to make the Gingerbread man. Then I used red, white, light brown and black acrylic paints to decorate him. I hope you all like it!
