It's been a long time...

Hello friends and fellow bloggers,

I know it's been a long time. My personal life has been very busy. We've worked on our shed, painted our son's room, and done much cleaning over the past few weeks.

Yesterday was the first time I'd painted my nail in weeks.  Can you believe it?

But I'm back...

Tonight's design is a base of Rimmel Gold Silk.  Then a little stamping...FAB FUN2...the little Indian.

For those of you who know me personally...you know...I'm Native American...so I thought this was cute!

A little stamping...of a little Indian...to get back into the swing of things.  Have a great week...my friends!

Are you ready for Barnabas Collins

Make no Grave Mistake...this blogger is ready.

Here is Orly Grave Mistake with KD14 in black. What I call...the Smiley Vampire

I can't wait...going out with the girls to see it!  Hope you all get a chance too!

Zoya Blogger Collection

I got in my Zoya Blogger Collection last week...but I didn't get to test it out until tonight.

It is fabulous! Spread on like a dream...and the color is gorgeous...gelish! I used Zoya Kate for this design.

So...to add a little finesse...a little bit of black stamping with RA-102 image plate.

As you can see...I did pretty good with the stamping and it looked fabulous...until I put in my Seche UltraV.

The middle finger stayed perfect...but the other two smudged...and this was the good hand.

All that stamping practice...and the top coat ruined it.  It still looks gorgeous to the naked eye!  

Get yourselves ready...I'm trying to come up with something cool for Dark Shadows night with my girlfriends on Friday night.  All girl night...with drinks at the VIP section in the theatre...can't wait!

Llarowe: Ludurana Aurora Boreal with Black Stamping

So...the nails seem to be getting shorter and shorter.  I've acquired the curse of split nails.

Even though I've cuticle creamed them, been taking vitamins and fish oil, my nails seem to acquired the curse of splitting.

My thumbnail split in a new spot this afternoon and this morning while dressing, my middle finger on my right hand lost a big hunk of nail off the corner.

I'm hoping this is the last of these catastrophes for a while...but cross your fingers for me.

Today...my Llarowe arrived.  I was soo excited to see my buys...I had to just try one out tonight.

So...Ludurana Aurora Boreal it is...I just love the shimmer and changes in the color in the light.  To make it  even more interesting...I added black stamping for RA-106 plate.

Let me know what you think:

Designer De Better

Hello Friends,
  Well...I had all day to do my nails.  Instead I did laundry.  Then I finally got up the nerve and attempted another water marble.  What a horror again!


So...I fell back on an old favorite.

This is OPI's Designer De Better with RA110 in Black!  Then a little square rhinestone for accent.

What fun!

Dew thinks it looks good...and I really liked it!  So...Sunday Stamping! Check!
