31 Day Challenge - Day 23: Inspired by Nature

     I really wanted to do a snowflake mani, but didn't really have any snowflakes stamps.  This is the closest one I could find in my tiny collection of 25 plates, and it turned out better than I imagined.  I have heard metallic polishes stamp really well, so I tried out this one and I was really impressed.  

Base coat: Pro FX Fiberized Ridge Filler
Base color: Ibiza from Zoya - 1 coat
Stamping color - un-named Color Club
Top coat: Seche Vite








  

31 Day Challenge - Day 22: Inspired by Fabric

       This post for the 31 day challenge had to be inspired by fabric.  This design reminds me of some blankets we used to have around our house when we were kids.  We had a black one, and a red one, and they had scotty dogs all over them.  The scotty dogs wore little bandanas with this design on them.

Base coat: Pro FX Fiberized Ridge Filler
Base color: Red Red from Wet N' Wild Wild Shine
Stamping color: Stamp me! Black from Essence
Stamping plate: Mash 50
Top coat: Seche Vite









31 Day Challenge - Day 21: Merge or Melt

       I am only four days behind on posting this.  Man, I suck at challenges.  As I have said before, I manage to get the work done, but struggle with the time it takes to do my blog post.  Are any of you having this issue as well?  I doubt it, because you all rock!  I don't really like how this turned out, but it is what it is!  I used my striping brush to apply the polish in the pattern that you see.
