here come the Ghosts and Goblins...

Being an adult is so difficult- and sometimes all you want to do is remember how it felt to be so carefree- just like a child at Halloween....

These were simply fun creations-  with a bit of twist on the shape... 
This color of china glaze is odd but hypnotic and reminds me of Halloween -  we added a black tip and some orange v stripes  to accent-  kind of reminds you of candy corn... :)

 

 

 

Feeling a bit on the Jazzie side....

When you think of Fall- you always remember the color of the leaves on the trees as they change colors and begin to fall on the ground...  it signals a bit of sadness as you start to realize that summer has ended and soon there will be snow...

so here is a lovely set to remind you of the warmth and beauty that surrounds us in September and October...

A bit of OPI in orange and fuchia brights- and some glam nail art...

Thank you to the muse that inspires these creations!

 

We kept laughing and looking at these to try to figure out what they reminded us of...It was definitely something in the 80's...   using a strips of stripping was crazy..... so I had to give in and use my stripping brush to help-  the base is multiple bright colors and we used the old fashioned striping tape in diagonal shapes and painted over them with black...        We used Orly's-  liquid vinyl and many other combinations to create the base underneath.

They are really a blast from the past for me......

Thanks Stacey for the laughter- it keeps me going....

 

Summer time Blues...

this has been a year of CHANGE for me...  no doubt for some of you as well...   Every once in a while you get the Blues...  so this Lady is singing thru her nail art....  perhaps its 1 sure way to cheer yourself up....

so here they are:   using 2 distinct shades of Blue OPI and some Sally Hansen Fuzzy Coat- Wool Knot and a bit of stripping to bring out the contrast in colors. 

thanks Doug for the emotional inspiration....

 

Birds of a Feather....

It doesn't take much to introduce someone to the Art of Bling-  and soon they are hooked.   She found this new China glaze color?    They call it Feathering....

This redhead looks hot in Orange and since the theme was already going-  we used some Hot Brights from OPI....   and the China Glaze feathering - "Your a HOOT"     it made for an interesting pattern and cool design....

so here it is...  Birds of a Feather....

thanks Stacy.

 

The Fourth of July!

Who doesn't look forward to the 4th of July-  a great Barbeque Holiday - and one that you don't mind getting your hands dirty with bbq sauce and wet naps :)  

I was surprised by a Red, White and Blue request.....  doesn't seem this persons type of bling at all but we managed to do some fun nails using Red White and Blue colors- and I even had some Stars for an extra splash.   So here they are:      Fireworks

thanks Stacy.

A touch of Pink

She really hates pink.... but I needed to do something with a bit of pink at least once,  and it was only on 2 signature nails.   So here is a touch of Pink....   Thanks Stacy-  you survived it..
