Valentines Day - We Stamp On Sundays

Hi all, I'm totally not feeling valentines day this year surprise surprise. So while this week's challenge over at Adventures In Stamping is for Valentines Day stamping, you guys get my nails from last year that I never posted.

This time last year I was getting ready for an interview, and planning what to take to Edinburgh. I had planned these nails before hand, but then it got really late the day before we traveled so I rushed them.

Forgive me for the quality of the picture and the rushed job. Oddly the guy at Edinburgh Dungeons who takes the photos when you're in the stock with an axe complimented me on these.

Hope you've all had a good weekend. I spent my Friday night chilling, and my Saturday back and forth to the bathroom feeling like I was going to be sick :( Gladly I feel better today.

Pink Stamped With Chrome Half Moon + Bullions

I had no idea what to title this, I love the idea of this mani, but not the execution; and I don't really think it's very me. Oh and bullion beads... you annoying little gits!

From this angle the curve doesn't look wonky ;]

Hope everyone's having a good day. I haven't had a chance to catch up with blog posts, but I shall be doing that tomorrow :]

Pink & White Flowers - Bundle Monster

So this is another post from before Valentines. I've pulled my back (old before my time; I know) so it's not pleasant to be sat, up, or to be at any angle where I can type. So this is gonna be super quick then I'm gonna spend the next couple of hours watching Once Upon A Time, and anything else that I need to catch up on.

Base Coat: Nail RX - Stuck On You
Base Colour: La Femme - No Name Pink Creme
Stamp Colour: Konad - Special White

Top Coat: Models Own - 3 In 1

I loved wearing these for the day I had them on, from afar they looked like nail stickers, and were kind of trippy. Very fun indeed.

Anyhoo I hope everyone's having a good Shrove Tuesday / Pancake Day :] & I will be catching up *fingers crossed* with blog posts I need to read tomorrow.

Valentines Nails - We Stamp On Sundays

This weeks challenge over at Adventures In Stamping was Valentines nails, I had other ideas for this challenge but these just happened hahaha.

I really didn't feel like posting these. It's one of those mani's that you just hate as soon as you see the photos you're meant to be posting :P I guess this is what happened when I try to do my nails hungover! The only reason I did this post in the end is because I only missed the first challenge, and I don't want to feel like i'm letting myself down by not posting.

So far (excluding this week) I've had a lot of fun doing these challenges. It's nice to have a certain aim to think of when pulling out polishes, rather than just slapping something together xD

My brain really is not working yet, and I still have to do my nails for what will be the rest of the week, and pack for leaving tomorrow. So it's not going to be an overly fun night as I have no idea where to start! 

Hope everyone's had a good weekend!

Stripey

Ahh; so these aren't the most refined stripes I've ever done, but the were fun to wear, although after a day I added some more colour over half of the white on the pinky finger. Not massively impressed with the outcome, but I got to use the glow in the dark polish I got just before Halloween so I was a happy bunny. I only have a really crappy bottle shot of the bottle in the dark though rather than my nails :(

Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: La Femme - Dusky Pink (made my own name up for it :P)
Black & White Acrylic Paint
Deborah - Sunset Cocktail
Rubies - Glow In The Dark Nail Polish
Top Coat: China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat

Just because I love this blue toned pink. Nom

You can sort of see a stripe of the glow in the dark where my pinky is at the top right corner of the bottle. But I couldn't get a good shot of my nails cause I had to close the curtains and squish into a cupboard to get it dark enough to glow xD

La Femme Pink & BYS Fools Paradise

I seriously struggle with titles of posts most of the time unless it's something obvious or I'm slightly inspired, does any one else have that problem?

I picked this up a couple weeks back. This is such a great polish, unfortunately the name had rubbed off (or was never on there) so I'm just gonna call it pink creme. Little bit of a boring mani today, but I'd never used this Bundle Monster image before :]
