Au NatuRAL

There's a first time for everything (well almost everything) and this is one of those times...my first time working with real flowers. I used purple, pink, and really tiny yellow flowers (they almost look like baby's breath but smaller). It was a lot harder than I thought it was gonna be. The challenge was not only to pick up the flowers but the place them exactly how I wanted them and to not break them. Talk about sweating bullets lol. I'll be honest it didn't turn out exactly how I wanted but I'm going to definitely give it another shot. Gosh darn you flowers! You win this time but I got next....dah duh duuuh (you know like the dramatic music in the movies...or not lol)





For the base I used Orly's 'Viridian Vinyl', for the dots I used Nail Art Pen by Nubar 'Sunny Yellow' and I used real flowers (YAY!), all topped off with two coats of Seche Vite






In the shade



I'm A Barbie Girl

...in a Barbie world. Life in plastic, it's fantastic! You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere. Imagination, life is your creation. Come on Barbie lets go party! Anyone else remember that song by Aqua back in the day lol. As a kid growing up, one of my favorite past times was meeting up with all my friends and playing barbies. We would all get together and bring all the accessories we had and combine them and we'd have quite a Barbie world...ahhh the good 'ol days *sigh* lol. I thought about all the awesome gadgets and gizmos Barbie had and how bad I wanted a pink Corvette just like hers (still dreaming that one, lol maybe one day). On to the nails...

For the base I used Orly's 'It's Not Me, It's You' and on the index Orly's 'Purple Crush'. For the sunglasses I used Kiss Brush-On Nail Art Soft Blue and Pearl Black. For the necklace I used Kiss Brush-On Nail Art Bikini Pink and So Easy Stripe Rite Gold. For the Corvette I used Kiss Brush-On Nail Art Beach Purple, Pearl Black, Red, and So Easy's Stripe Rite Yellow and Silver. For the "B" I used Kiss Brush-On Nail Art Pearl Black and Red for the lips. For the bow I used Kiss Brush-On Nail Art White and So Easy's Stripe Rite Yellow, topped off with two coats of Seche Vite
