Merry Christmas!!

So today is Christmas! CHRISTMAS! The time where families can get together and eat and just enjoy each other. I was lucky enough to get to spend this Christmas with my family, and though I leave in the morning, I miss them and the dogs already. On the bright side, though my trip was extremely short, I got to go to Yesterdog, which is amaaaaazing. The picture for today's nails is a iPhone pic, which will be replaced by a real picture when I'm actually at MY computer and have access to my files, etc.

I hope all of you had a great day, whether you celebrate Christmas or not...and for those of you that DO celebrate Christmas- MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! :-D

Christmas manicure

Hello my Sweet Nail-Art Lovers
I wish all of you great holidays and here is y christnas manicure. The idea of the car is "stolen" from some icture from interent, i loved it so much that could not resist to have it on my nails.

Clarification

Just to clarify about the twitter-only contests:

I'm not stopping normal giveaways here on the blog, I'm just adding a few SMALL twitter only giveaways. It might be a single polish, a cosmetic bag, or something like that. It's just a way to engage my loyal twitter followers as well as those here on the blog.

Sorry for the confusion.

LAST OF CHRISTMAS 2010

I had a blast doing Christmas nails but I think I'm pretty much done for the year. I will be attending a nail workshop in January and one in February. I can't wait to see how I can improve my skills. It has been such a great year and I am so thankful for all of the clients that made it so amazing! I can't wait to see what 2011 brings :)

Sweet Tweets!

Hey all! Are you on Twitter? I am! I wanted to give you all a heads up that I'm going to start doing twitter-only giveaways soon! (I'll announce it on twitter when I decided to start doing it! :))

Follow me at twitter.com/DailyNail and say hi! :)

Another Shredded Mani...

I had tried another Shredded mani using one of Funky Fingers 2010 Holiday glitters, Blitzen. It's sooo sparkly! I just used my regular black as well. It was waaaaaayyyy easier to see the actual shredded part in real life.

ChristmaSnails!

So I sat the other day, pondering what sort of Christmas themed nails I could do that hadn't been done yet, and said out loud 'What kind of Christmas nails should I do?" to which Chris replied, "There's your answer!" Me: "huh?!" Chris: "Christmas Snails!" ...and thus, a nail design was born! :) Hope it makes you chuckle! :)

I used American Apparel Echo Park as a base, with Zoya Shawn and BB Couture Poison Ivy for the greens, with each color mixed with American Apparel Hassid to shade. For the gold, I used China Glaze 2030 from Khrome Collection, for the red, I used ORLY Candy Cane Lane, and for the burgundy, I used American Apparel Port. For the string of lights, I used Zoya Envy, with American Apparel Manila, ORLY Candy Cane Lane, and American Apparel Cameo Blue for the lights. Topped it all off with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat.

This just might be my new FAVE polish!!!!

I picked this up at Walgreens. It was actually located in the hair care section, WAAAYYYY up on the top shelf, so high up, I had to get help getting it down, lol. I love being short *sigh*. Anyways, it was in a pretty display with a mint green, light purple, bright raspberry and a turq. This was the only one that caught my eye though. It's called Grey Area.

Here it is after I used China Glazes Chords for the Konad design.

here she is before I did the Konad. I am just in love with this color!!
