AIS...Hot Hot Hot

Good Afternoon All......The FB Group Adventures in Stamping's challenge for today is Hot Hot Hot, which is quite appropriate for the weather here today  :(    
This is the second mani this week with the theme of "hot"...the last one did not turn out too well...this one I am much more pleased with....
I opted to do a base of NYC Lavender Cupcake and then sponge with  3 other colors....

I went with one of my favorites for the stamping.... M63
Okay... the final product...



I really like it, could have something to do with it being purple  LOL
Thanks for stopping in, have a blessed and happy Sunday   :)

Purple Crumpet Fairy Summer Challenge...Hot Hot Hot

Good Evening All.....I did my Purple Crumpet Fairy Summer Challenge today....Hot Hot Hot...it turned out a fail....looked really "yucky".  So I decided to try to salvage it.....things went like this......
I started with a base coat of  LA Colors Festive.
Then I proceeded to sponge with Orly Star Spangled, SH Black Heart and CG Luxe and Lush.  Things were okay until the black....it is what made it look yucky....kinda dirty looking  :(


Doesn't it look "dirty" ???  So I opted to do some stamping.  First I stamped with Konad M57 and Milani White on the Spot....which was overpowering.  So plan B, I taped off and painted part of the nail with the Milani and restamped with Konad Black, and the other part of the nail I painted black......Here is how it turned out...


Not  my best work  :(    Thanks for coming by All!!!

Jumpin' Jade!!!

Hi All, have you ever had one of those days that make you go ..."what the hell???"...that has been my day  :(
But I guess it is almost over, and I hope tomorrow is better...
My base coat tonight is the SH Insta Dri Jumpin' Jade, a really pretty deep green, but stains HORRIBLY...I am sooo afraid to take it off!! It will definately be only for stamping from here on out!
I received my first Nubar the other day.... White Polka Dot, I used this over the SH.  I did have a pic of the SH before I added the  Nubar, but accidentally deleted it....told ya this has not been a good day .....



I got compliments at work today on this mani  :)  I can't wait to try the Nubar over black.  
Well, I am off the remove this SH....I may be singing "It Ain't Easy Being Green"     LOL...Have a great evening   :)

I chose to do my base coat in SH Insta-Dri Brisk Blue and an accent nail with SH Hard as Nails Black Heart...I guess it is Sally Hansen Day!!



The IP is from the new Mash plates, #47....
