Color Club Decals

Today just an easy and fast manicure using Color Club decals from Black and White collection.
How cute are those?
As you know, i am not a decal person, but those just touched my heart :)
I wore this manicure for 3 days, and nothing happened to the decals!!! It also was very easy to apply it using the orange stick, and i loved that you don't even have to press hard for them to stick completely.

CANDY CANE NAILS

These are fimo clay candy canes that I purchased from oaktreedollshouseminiatures.com


One these nails I added sequins into the acrylic and painted on snowflakes.

On these nails I did a fade and added fimo clay snowmen on the ring fingers from kennickkreations.com. I also painted on snowflakes.

More one stroke nails

Here are some more of my recent manicures made with acrylic paints.
Please let me know how do you think i could improve those designs in terms of colors and composition. Please tell what do you like and don't like, i really want to hear some critics
Garden Rose

Aqua Flower - for some reason those paints are not showing up well on pictures, so i played with brightens to intensify the colors

Goldy Stamp over black

Hello dear readers!
hope each of you had a wonderful thanksgiving , and great "Black Friday" (i personally past on that this year).
Quick and easy stamp manicure today - i used 24K from China Glaze Khrom collection for stamping. It is not working as good as other CG khromes, but turned out quite well on black polish. Not really visible over dark blue or all lighter ones.
I am still in search for perfect gold polish that will work with stamping.

Evening Snowfall

Hello Dear Readers!
Today i am publishing manicure that i actually have on my nails right now, i really like how ti turned out - especially the cute little star gem from Pretty Shiny art kit that i reviewed yesterday.
The base color is Zoya "Demi" and the glitter is by China Glaze - such a brand Alliance :)
I wonder if you, guys going to be checking out blog on holidays or not? Would you like me to keep posting?



FROSTY THE SNOWMAN

These are acrylic nails. I used white tips and art glitter in blue boy. It is a very subtle glittery blue. So pretty for winter. I added clay snowmen with a blue background to look like a snowglobe on the ring fingers. I painted shimmery blue and silver snowflakes with a migi nail art pen from miginailart.com on all of the fingers.

The snowflakes on these nails are fimo clay from kennickkreations.com.

On these nails I made a 3D snowman on the ring fingers. First I added 3 small white balls of acrylic for the body. Then I used my migi nail art pens to paint eyes, buttons, a carrot nose, stick arms, a scarf, and a hat.


On these nails I added fimo clay candy trees on the ring fingers from kennickkreations.com.

Color Club - Pretty Shiny Hollidays

Hello Dear Nail-Art Lovers.
Today i have a product review post. Color Club sent me new collection "Pretty Shiny Things" by Art Club - which is a total sparkle of the upcoming holidays. I was so excited about this collection, and i have been waiting for this release since August ,and finally i got a chance to put my hands on it. What to say - I am in love!!! Again as many times before Color Club made exceptional job with this shiny and glamorous art kit.
The kit includes 3 strippers - gold, silver and cooper, Gold and silvers swirled beads and a gems carousel. I would especially say a word about sparkly gold stripper - because this is the best gold stripper i have ever owned - it is structures and very sparkly, very opaque - and does not look yellow on nails as most of the gold strippers do.

The gems and beads are super cool - very very sparkly and look truly gold and silver. Swireled beads are very original, and carousel gems are a "must have" - i dreamed of metalick rhinestones like this for year.

The quality of gems is truly exceptional, i am again super impressed. The beading are very light weight which allow really easy application in terms of locating and picking it up, it looks for me like made of some elastic not very hard plastic. This material is a huge advantage compare to cheap, not professional products, because it makes the gem stick perfectly to the nail, following its curve. The gems are also very thin, does not "grow" up from the nail. I tried to show it on this picture - see, swirles are not tall at all, wich is also a very cool thing

Lacy french is made using stamps and Gold Stripper from "Pretty Shiny Things" nail-art Kit


Here more pictures of the gems. I think that cooper color is very fresh , original and cool looking .

Also some words of the decal included in the kit - you ll get 2 sheets - gold and silver decals .
I am not a big fan of the decals, in fact use it very rare, almost enther. But those really touched my heart, especially silvers, it is so cool looking that i lol probably wear it for the thanksgiving. I also think that decals can be a good idea for pedicure, not much work at all, look nice and stay on place for really long time.
I paired deacal with Color Club Cristmas collection polishes - marriage made on heaven :) Pics are a little too light - but teh result is really very nice and professionaly looking.
I am so in love with this Gold and Silver kit - its like all my gem dreams finally came true.
I ll post more designs with those fabulpouse gems in my next posts, so stay tuned .

Painted Tips

Hello Dear Readers!
I realized today that i have like a ton of nail material that i did not posted yet :) I guess i was too busy making nail-art that did not have time to post it all, but i hope to catch up on it this week.
I ll start Monday with some hand painted tips that i made last week. I am practicing my drawing skills really a lot, and try to move from paper to the tips, To have a better sens of the composition on the nail. Some of you also asked me about how am i making duo colored paintings - it is called one stroke technique and you can just Google or , even better youtube it.
The secret is to use a double loaded flat brush. Double loaded means that 2 or even 3 colors are loaded on the different sides of the brush. Where are a lot of tutorials on youtube, that i am learning from.
And as a desert a recent picture of my Marshal Cat :) He is getting big but i still believe that he is more on a kitty side when on the adult. He is such a great cat - very very nice and learning things really quick and nicely.
