New Mash IP's, Pics and Swatches!!!

Good Morning All!!  I can finally post about the new Mash IP's that I received for review from the company  :)
It is a set of 25 plates with anywhere from 5 to 7 images on each plate. They ALL stamped perfectly!!  There are alot of individual images, which I personally like ! Excuse any fingerprints on the pics :(

























I guess I should have warned you that this post was pic heavy!!!!  Now for some more.....I swatched every image on every plate....




Well, there they are!  I am impressed with the quality and the images....I can envision some awesome mani's coming from this set!!!
I had this polish on my nails and decided to do an image from IP 46, I used all Konad Special Polishes...



I had some smearage....I must learn patience  :(  But all in all I like the mani!
You can now purchase these plates from mashnails.com. The site says $12.99, a great deal for the money  :)

Which Way Wednesday

Good Morning All, it is Wednesday again....time for Which Way Wednesday  :)
I chose to do a base coat of CG Pelican Gray today and top that with a coat of  Northern Lights, one of my favorite tc.

Next I "experimented" with a crackle polish called Cracked Cement by CG....it did not work the way that I had envisioned  :(  I took a smalll brush and just put streaks of the crackle polish on my nails, but it didn't give the "cracked" look that I was wanting....lesson learned....


So,lastly, I used IP M72 to stamp the broken glass looking image....kinda was wanting a cracked concrete look on the nails....failed and that  LOL!!!


 The finished product.....
Sooooo....which way do you think , or non at all!!!  I think I like the first and the last....have a wonderful day!!!

A Blue Mothers Day

Good Evening All, I hope all  the mothers had a wonderful day!!  My mani today is a tribute to my mother, who passed away almost 2 years ago :(   Her favorite color was blue, so I sported blue nails today in her honor.
My base coat was SC Grecian Sun , I just love this shade!  The FB group AIS's challenge for today was to use an IP ending in 5...I chose BM225....


I used one of my new Konad Special Polishes, in blue, for the stamping.   I am pleased with the way it turned out, I think my mom would have liked it!!!




Thank you Mom, for being my mother, my confidant, and above all, my friend!!   Love you Mom   :)

Big Money

Happy Saturday All!!  I was trying to decide what to do today and realized that I hadn't done anything with glitter lately....so , here we go!!!
My base coat was an untried WnW Grays Anatomy, and I am very disappointed in it...it is just boring, it really needs the upcoming glitter  :)    The first pic is natural sunlight...
 The second one in indoors in light box....what a difference!!!
  The glitter that I chose in another untried, SH Gem Crush "Big Money, I like it!! Though it can be alittle overpowering for me  :(   First 2 pics, light box...

 This pic, natural light...

So , you know what is next...stamping!!!  I used SH Color Quick Pen in pink, and IP RA 107.




 It just amazing me how the color is so different inside and outside!!!  Hope you have a great day!!
