Gradient and Aztec stamping with Cheeky Viva Mexico

Hi guys, hope you've all had a good weekend, I've not had the most productive but I thought that after a very stressful two weeks worrying about the interview I mentioned in last post I thought a long chilled weekend was the best call.  Especially as I've been in a particularly good mood as I totally nailed the interview =D so after I write this post I'm going to watch a film and maybe colour in, carry on the chilling.

Over Orange - We Stamp On Sundays

Happy Sunday :]

Bit of a late post today but it seems like my day's just slipped away from me, and I've been on slow motion for a few hours now.

This week's challenge over at Adventures In Stamping was to stamp over orange. As soon as orange was decided as the winner I knew I wanted to do tiger nails as it's been a bit of a while.

I started with a base of Kiko - Melon and used the rough side of a kitchen sponge to dab on Essence Colour3 - Dancing In The Street and Alessandro - Pomegranate. Pomegranate looks a little pinker than it is when it's next to the other two colours. Then I added a top coat, and stamped with Bundle Monster BM223 with BYS - Black Satin and added another top coat.

Base Coat: OPI - Nail Envy

Base Colour: Kiko - Melon

Other Colours: Alessandro - Pomegranate & Essence Colour3 - Dancing In The Street

Stamp Colour: BYS - Black Satin

And here's some pictures of the base before stamping. I only remembered to take photos after stamping one nail!

And here's what I used:

Hope you've all had a good weekend, mine has gone far too quick!

Crazy Neons - We Stamp On Sundays

Hi all, been a little MIA this week again, but I've just been shattered!

This week's stamping challenge over at Adventures In Stamping was to use crazy bright neons. I decided to do a "plastic bag" smooshie style base for these, and then stamp over with black.

Base Coat: CND - Stickey

Base Colour: Rimmel - French White

Neon Colours: Kiko - 356 - Melon

Flor Mar - N007

Alessandro - Pomegranate

Clubworks - Pink

Stamp Colour: BYS - Black Satin

Top Coat: Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails

Here's my base, before a top coat, and the method used didn't really work, so I filled in some of the whiter spots with a cotton bud with polish on.

 Here's what I used:

Hope you've had a good weekend! I should be getting ready to head out to stuff my face with yummy food, probably Wagamamas, nomnomom noodles! And then to go watch Wreck-It Ralph :D
