Lizard Lizard...

wasn't that a line from a commercial from the 90's-  I think it was-  oh well- here are some fun over 40 and fabulous- nail art for the lady with flair.     A great 'borrowed' idea- we had to try.

thank you Stacey.

Retro 60's

I was looking at this Orly Pink polish and thinking about what I could do with it...  it reminds me of the patterns that we wore back then....   Using black, pink, silver and blue tic tac strippers.    Side note: these strippers are really an addition to anyone that does nails or simply dabbles.   If you are interested- let me know and I will get some for you......

Snow Globe

I love to look at snow globes- they seem to have captured your hopes and dreams inside- with all the glittery haze- that just captures your attention.   These remind me of that.   Thank you Diane for your ideas...

Orly white pearl base and OPI glittery top coat that sparkles in rainbow effect.

Here comes summer ...

I am trying all different shades that I normally wouldnt select.  This is 2 distinct shades of Red Tic Tac color on the diagonal.  Then using 2012 crackle paint to accent the angles in orange, dark red , silver and bronze.  Topped with some stripping in electric blue and white under black dotting.   Wow.  

Alpine!

Her favorite color is blue- so we mixed 2 distinct shades of blue to make this alternative french style- using Sally Hansen.  Added some white, teal, silver and blue stripping and here is the result- they remind me of mountains and snow- so I am calling them Alpine.
Thanks Donna!

Casino Nails

I love Orly black nail polish- it goes on smooth and self levels with 2 coats and is very shiny without top coat.  Partnered with OPI glitter and Color Club strippers.   These are knock outs!  Thanks Diane!  these are awesome.

Playing with new colors!

Nothing like playing with new nail stuff to see what fun creative designs you can come up with-  I am partial to abstract-  it allows you to mix and match colors you would never think of putting together and then seeing how well they play together in the sand box.   So here are some new tips for fun.
