China Glaze Khrome Swatches and Konad

Hello dear reader, today i have swatches of new China Glaze "khrome" lacquers.
I basically ordered those polishes for stamping, because CG is always best choice for konad stamping, and original Konad Gold and Silver are really not coll and opaque.
So those Khrome polishes looked for me like something that will work just great for stamping.
But at the minute i try it on, i realized that i am falling in love... So here are swatches.
CG - Twenty-Four K - It is all about GOLD! Very light and sparkle, work best for stamping with darker base color
CG - Millennium - Mirror metallic silver - awesome for stamping with any base color
CG -Metallic Muse - Truly brilliant of this collection, very spacial mint metallic, super lovely, and great for stamping too.
With matting top coat also look super spacial
Some stamping :) I love this polish.

SKELETON SPOOKY!

On these nails I used black acrylic in nebula. Some of you have asked where I get my acrylic colors. I get most of my colors from mixing 1 part art glitter with 3 parts clear acrylic. I buy art glitters from Color My Nails school. My very favorite colors I have only been able to find through them. They are nebula, fresh lime, mermaid, barbie, coral reef, punk pink, plum loco, black hole, hot kiss, lava lamp, purple lame', mystery, and last but not least cotton candy. The art glitters can double as glitter for glitter toes. Love it!

On these nails I used little dots that I also purchased from Color My Nails School. They sell some fun stuff there and also have great prices.

Rubber Nail

Hello Dear Readers.
Here is what i have for you today. I think that the effect og this mani make nails look very rubbery. I used CG "For Audrey" as a base and then Zoya "Calista" for stamping, and then just matted it with Essi mate top coat.

SAw VI Nails

This amny is inspired by the "Sow VI" horror movie.
In fact i have seen only one part of Saw, i think it was part II and that was really a mistake, especially taking food to this movie. I don't even know how i did not puke where.
I like some horror movie, but i prefer psychological or mystic related movies like "exorcist" or "silence of the climbs". SOW # is somehting different, something which is not really scary but rather puke.
It is a Halloween season now, so i believe that scary bloody nail-art is appropriate during the entire month.
I have a Boo-Bag inspired nails coming soon :) So stay tuned!!!!

HALLOWEEN SPIDER WEB

These are acrylic nails with fimo clay spiders from kennickkreations.com. I painted black spider webs to make them extra spooky.

This is another design with the clay dots I love so much. I purchased them through oaktreedollshouseminiatures.com. I wish someone would make these dots in more colors because I just love them. They are too cute!

First snow in colorado

Unbelievable, it was snowing all day long today, and they forecast more snow and cold this weekend. I don't even have worm cloths yet, it does not suppose to get that cold in early October.
Where is a saying - if you don't like the weather in Colorado, just wait 10 minutes :) (because weather here is unpredictable and changes really quick)
Anyway if i don't have worm cloths, i at least can make a winter manicure lol. I know the most creative idea, but i just needed smf quick, because again, no time at all with this crazy life.



And also i decided try to learn One Stroke nail art technique - it is very popular in Russia now. I would not say that this is really hard, but definately require a lot of practice. So here is my first attenpt , i mean it does look like a first attempt too... I am going to get better paints, and keep practice :)
