Mad as a Hatter


Day 74

Hey all!! I hope that everyone's Christmas went beautifully, that everyone got to spend time with their families, and that everyone's travels found them safely at their destinations this year!! I must admit, I'm rather elated to be able to not do Christmas themed nails today, is that bad?! :-P Sorry if it is, but yeah, I was running out of ideas!! Today's nails make me think of The Mad Hatter for some reason, I think its the acid green base that does it... but not entirely sure. Sorry again for the poor cleanup- still no good remover here at the parents' house.



I used Barielle Polished Princess as a base, with China Glaze L8R G8R applied with Konad Plate m65. For the tips, I used Essie Foot Loose for freehand painted tips. Topped everything off with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat.

Anyone get any good after Christmas deals today??

HAPPY NEW YEAR

The first thing I did on these nails was acrylic in nova near the tip. Then I used a glitter called disco balls from sparklesnailproducts.com. I mixed it with clear acrylic first and added it near the smile line blending it up into the blue. I painted a snowflake on the ring fingers.

These nails are a super cute chunky blue glitter called stratosphere. For this time of year we just had to add the snowflakes.

This color is called "black hole." I added pink and silver stars to it. I used my migi nail art pen to write "2010" on the ring fingers. Happy New Year!

On these nails I used my favorite color nebula and then added some silver sparkle strips near the tip and a silver star for a new years theme.

These are silver nails with gold stars.
