Monarch Butterfly

For this design I used China Glaze: keen orange  and OPI Hot and Spicy I did a gradient and added glitter from the Color Club collection no name, got it at Ross.

I then stamped it with black and used ip NC01.  I always wanted to do the butterfly stamping but I was unable to invision how to stamp it and this weekend I just decided to stamp it any way it would turn out and I love the way it look.  I also added the white dots.  I can't stop looking at my nails they look so pretty!  I got so many looks and compliments on my nails.

Peacock Feathers

For this design I used Sally Hansen-Insta Dri: Freeze, although I used a top coat before apply this color it still manage to stain my nails once I removed the polish.  It is such a pretty in your face color, so I toned it down by stamping over it.  I used NC01 image plate to create the white peacock feather and top it with China Glaze: Techno

Color Club Holo, Sorry for the lack of post but I've been having problems inserting my pictures on my blog.  For this design I used Color Club: Harp on it and I stamped it with BM 200 series with Sally Hansen: Insta Dri Freeze.

OPI Liquid Sand Collection

I bought the mini liquid sand collection.  I'm not to fond of the texture so I added top coat to have that smooth finish.  If you don't use a top coat it's a matte look with a sandy feeling.  "That's why it's called liquid sand"

Stay the Night
