Pink Floyd

I grew up listening to Pink Floyd, being that they are my Dad's favorite band. So I made this one just for him.

I was unhappy with the colours I chose. I thought that they would be good but when I did it the rainbow didn't work with itself :( If I did it again I would have to go colour shopping and play with the colours before I did my nails. Overall I am very pleased with how it turned out. It also got great reception :) I am (sadly) not ambidextrous so I didn't dare try doing it on my right hand instead I wrote Dark Side of the Moon on my nails using a nail art pen :)

Now I need to do Another Brick in the Wall nails

Ombre

So my friend and I bought 2 Ombre sets by LA Girl 

One was Girls Night Out, A bright summer one
the other was Spring Fling, A blue one with glitter




Personally I like the Girls Night Out better since its brighter, the blue one is too...I don't know boring? But who knows maybe it looks better wearing it than on swatchicles. Anyways luckily my friend was the one who bought it not me :) So the kits came with a top coat as well. Girls Night Out came out as matte.

Super Bowl


So I'm not a football person...But my dad is a little bit so just for him I made some Seahawks nails :)

For the eagle thing I made it using some refillable nail art pens.
The thumb is Suzi Says Feng Shui.
The pointer and pinky fingers are Queen Victoria Street
The ring finger is Cotton Candy with Quo by Orly Baby Yellow Instant artist
The middle finger is Suzi Loves Cowboys with Chic Chic Horray 

So this one got a really good reception :)
I love the simplicity of it. I don't usually do mix-matched art I usually prefer the look of one solid pattern, but this one worked really well. I tried to get my family to draw the eagle on my right thumb but they all laughed at me :( So I did it myself probably better than they could have done.

Christmas Tree Nail Art

So I decided to do some simple but pretty christmas trees. 

To start use a gold or nude like base colour
(I used Revlon's Gold Coin)

To make the trees I used tape to make triangles but you could also use a paint brush. 
Make sure to apply the tape when the base is completely dry.

Then paint the triangles green. 
(I used Icing's Electric Emerald)

 Remove the tape when the green is still wet.

Now time to add some lights to your tree. Grab a glitter or sparkly polish and paint it on the tree.

Now time for the star on the tree. If you have a small decal or gem you can use that or you can just use a small paint dot at the top of the triangle.


Now you're done don't forget to finish with a top coat to protect your design.

Have fun :)
