Which Way Wednesday.....Texture

Hello All......back with another WWW......Not real sure how I feel about this one!!

Cast Of Characters...


 I used the new CG "Texture" polish in the shade of Bump and Grind.....I like the shade.  Then I sponged a light coat of Nubar  White Polka Dot......warning!!!   Any type of topcoat takes away from the "textured" look   :(   And lastly , I stamped with Pueen 36 and placed a matte top coat.

#1

 This is 2 heavy coats....next time I think I will just use lighter coats.....think it would look better....

 #2

 This is with the Nubar .....I do not like this !!!!

#3




 I am "okay " with this one....still not too wild about it.......



Which Way do you like it...if any???!!!   Have a great and blessed night......................Jackie

Sinful Which Way Wednesday

Hello All....hope everyone has been well!! Tonight I have a "Sinful"  Which Way Wednesday.....and I love this mani!!!

Cast Of Characters.....


 I got a couple of the new Sinful  SHINE colors.....and I love the formula,goes on very smooth and dries very shiny!!!  I used the Dark Room to stamp with and it did excellent.  And I just cannot get over how beautiful the Watch It Shine is over the Alfresco.....you gotta try them if you haven't already!!!




 I chose the Pueen15 IP for the stamping, and as I said above, the Sinful SHINE stamps soooo good!!!


Here is the base coat of the Alfresco...

 I can remember when I wouldn't have dared to wear a shade like this......stamping totally changes things!!!


Now for the addition of Watch It Shine...................... gorgeous isn't it????





And now for the stamping with the Pueen15 IP  and Dark Room.....



 Sorry for all the pics....I  couldn't decide!!!

Soooo, Which Way do you like it???




Thanks for stopping by....have a blessed night!!!

World Autism Day

Hello All, in case you didn't know, today is World Autism Day!   I had the pleasure of spending some time with my great niece on sunday....she is autistic....and she is such a SWEETHEART!!   So , this mani is dedicated to Lilly   :)

Cast of Characters....



I did 2 coats of Sinful Colorrs Sugar Rush, such a pretty blue!!


 I thought it needed "something", so out comes the glitter!!!  Today I chose to use China Glaze "Water You Waiting For"......gorgeous!!!



 And lastly , the stamping......IP Gals GA28 was used.....the one that looks like a hibiscus....well, at least it does to me  :)  Sinful Colors "Snow Me White" was used as the stamping polish.....



I think it turned out pretty, please ignore the angry cuticles....I have not been kind to them lately  :(
Here is some info on a site about Autism, you should check it out  :)
I hope everyone is having a good week.  I started the "Shred" diet....on my 3rd week now and have lost 6 lbs!!!!  Thanks to everyone for stopping by!!!                                           Blessings, Jackie

Which Way Wednesday....Black Roses

Hello All!!!   I know, it is late, but at least it is still Wednesday!!!
Cast Of Characters....







Today I started with 2 coats of Maybelline Color Show  "Denim Dash".....I have had this for quite awhile and never used it, and I love it!!!  I can remember a time when I thought I would NEVER wear blue polish...LOL!!!

 I was shocked,and pleased to see that it was matte when it dried!!!

This is how it looks with SV top coat...

 Pretty this way too....

Then I used IP Pueen 22 and Konad Black for stamping...



 I really  like this image...I think this image will be on my nails to match my sweater for Easter!!

Last I used Orly Matte Top Coat.....now I really can't decide..........



So, what do you think??? Which Way do you like it???


I think I like #4, thanks for stopping by tonight........blessings...................Jackie

Monday's Matte Gradient

Hello All....It is sooo good to get back to something that resembles "normal"!!! I realized that I hadn't done a gradient mani in quite awhile.......

Cast Of Characters....

 This is one of my favorite images...the lower left one.....
Here is the gradient that I did with a dampened makeup sponge.....

I kinda hated to cover it up with stamping!!!
Now for the final product......

I got soooo many compliments on this today!!!  Hope you like it too  :)
Hope everyone has a great, blessed evening, thank you for stopping by!!!

AIS Challenge.....Spring Flowers

Hello All....long time no see.....sorry.  My father , thank goodness, is doing ALOT better!!!   We got a big spring storm here last night, so I am stuck inside and decided to try to do a mani   :)
Today's challenge in AIS is to do a mani based on "spring flowers"......kinda hard to get inspiration when there are inches of snow outside!!!

Cast of Characters...






I did a base coat of SC" Mauve"...

Then I sponged using some "springy" colored SC's........made me think of a watercolor!!

 I decided to use IP Gals GA29 and an Essence polish..."Walk on the Wild Side" to stamp with....and it did excellent at stamping, this is the only one that I have , I think I will check out some of the other shades and see how they do!!




I liked it,  it seemed soft, springy and feminine!! Hope you enjoy it also.  And thanks for bearing with me....I am a "daddy's" girl and it took soooo much out of me to see him that ill...he still has a way to go but it much better. Blessings to all...............................................Jackie
