NOTD: Blue and Gold FFA Elegant

I think this looks very elegant and formal. I am calling it my FFA formal. National Convention is coming up this month and I am going to be doing some FFA themed nails along with Halloween!
I started off this look with just the gold French tip but, today I added gold rhinestones. I think the rhinestones add that extra punch.

Here are my links to my other FFA nail art ideas: National FFA Week  and Convention

Nail Polish Used:
Avon "Splendid Blue"
Sinful Colors "Flower Girl"



NOTD: Bluebirds

This is the first design I have done with only acrylic paint! I mixed the colors to look like a gradient then failed at painting lines that are supposed to resemble reeds and a bird with a huge head. My skills have been improving though! I also made a lightbox!!!! Don't my pictures look nice? It was super easy to make.

Paints Used:
Americana "White Wash"
                 "Ebony"
Folk Art "Metallic Blue Pearl"
              "Brilliant Blue"

4th of July Nail Art Challenge: July 2nd

Ok, so I didn't finish my nail art challenge. I actually did this one and a fireworks one but I got mad at the fireworks one and didn't feel like redoing it. Then I got busy and dropped off the face of the Earth. Here is the last one I did that I was happy with. 
Cookout! It is a picnic table cloth, hamburger, hotdog, watermelon, and a lemon to make lemonade. I thought it was genius. It took me a very long time to paint. I mixed all of the colors with nail polish till I had everything just right. I don't think I'm going to list all of the polishes I used for this one. I don't really want to dig them out. On to the next!





Hello again!

Hello everyone!!!! I am very sorry that I have been gone for so long. I was super busy and didn't post. Then another week went by, and another... Anyway, I am back now and I have lots of posting to do! I still need to post about my tea collection, another Liebster award, things I have purchased in the last couple months, and Halloween nail art! Get excited! I am back and will be on a regular schedule once again.

For Patriotic Glitter I used several different types of glitters and designs! These mix and match nails look like a bursts of fun and would look very pretty with any other color combo!

Nail Polish Used:
Sinful Colors "Out of This World"
Pure Ice "Celestial"
              "All Nighter"
Nicole "Mi Fantasia"
Milani "Red"
Diamond Cosmetics "Glitter Lites"
Sinful Colors "Flower Girl"
