6 Year Old Daughter Easter Nail Design

My daughter loves picking what I do to my nails, so I usually let her. Especially if I want a theme for a Holiday or Season. So when she asked if I was doing my nails for Easter, I said yes. She Choose everything, including placements!! Not too bad, if I do say so myself  ;)
She wanted pink, purple, and blue colors. Flowers and beads lol

I used Gel polish and a glitter mix I made for the blue ring finger.
The pink on my pinky is a mix I made.
The pink on my middle finger is Finger Paints 'My Sketch Pad or Yours?'.
The purple on my index finger is Finger Paints 'It Will All Bosch Over'.
The main glitter is a blue one from the Sallys Girl line at Sally Beauty Supply. I bought a really long time ago!
Everything else came from Bundle Monster. Stamps, beads, and the acrylic flower!
Stamp Numbers are: BM-H09 and BM-H10.

That's it! Hope you like :)

4th of July 2015 / 4 Year Anniversary

This year was one of the best 4th of July we have had in a very long time!

We went out to our friends house and had a great day in the river and sun.

A mush needed break and weekend! We all had so much fun. Even though I burned so bad.

It's been 4 days and I can just now move with minimal pain in my shoulders and legs.

I am very fair and thought I had enough sunscreen on, apparently I didn't and now I'm paying for that. Please always wear sunscreen!! ♥

Our daughter had a terrific time and she got to float the river in a inflatable cooler :)

Still makes me laugh thinking about it. She luckily did not burn but has a slight tan in her arms now.

I did end up doing my nails for the occasion. Several times until I ended up with very simple nails and I loved them. 

I will show them down below. 

I will also make a post on some summer nails I have done so far and I need to remember to blog more. Still... :/ What can I do?!?

I didn't end up taking a lot of pictures, we were just having fun for the weekend. I did take some and our friend took some. I don't know if I'll post any of those yet. We didn't watch the local fireworks show. It wasn't very good and didn't last long. I will be taking some pictures of the fair and the fireworks show this weekend! And the county fair and rodeo is also coming up, which we plan to go see. There isn't mush going on otherwise.

We're just staying cool in the heat. Going to the park and water for some fun and rest.

General summer activities ♫ ♪ ♥

For now, I think we are just enjoying our time together and the weather. It's been a strange feeling for me. Not doing anything but loving our own company and not bothering with people we don't want to be around. We're keeping drama out of our lives and the people who bring it.

We are staying positive and moving forward. I like it.

I'll now be able to go back to working out more than my legs. I never really realized how important my shoulders were to my range of motion... 

I know, I'm weird. Anywho, that is all for now and I'll be back soon with some more nail art and possibly lots of pictures. I stopped posting those for a while, mainly due to lack of confidence and drive. But I don't give a hoot what people say about me or my photos. ♥

Goodbye for now

My first set. Loved them! The blue paint stained so bad..

And I did my Daughters too!!

Second set. I really liked them but the red would bleed so bad.

So I redid them and kept them white with glitter.

And my Cinderella nails (right hand) were left simple too.

Products on nails used are:

First Mani- Red, White and Blue Acrylic Paint

Stars are stamped with BM-H25 stamping plate from Bundle Monster

Last Mani- Same red and blue from above and same glitter topper. 

I stamped the star burst with Sally Hansen White On and

Bundle Monster BM-H14 from the collection above.

My daghters nails were all done in acrylic paints and a top coat.

And yes, I know I need a fill. I'll do it soon!!

Born Pretty Store Stamping Plate Review

I received a BPS plate the other day in the mail and I was so happy and super excited. 

I tried it out the next morning. It was late when we checked the mail :)

The plate I got is called, Cute Birds Feather Nail Art Stamping Template Image Plate

Born Pretty BP58

Product #19361

It is so beautiful. I'll have images below.

The plate itself is round and has 9 separate images on it. Including 2 full nail images.

All basically about birds lol

Nice details. Good, deep etching! Hold a good amount of polish. Stamps beautifully!

 I used 'non-stamping' polish and it still made great images. I used my XL stamper also from BPS. For my Mani (below) I used Sally Hansen Coral Reef and SinfulColors Black on Black.

Topcoat is Sally Hansen Invincible. (all over my Gel nails..)

I'll also leave a link to the plate and my discount code.

(Does not show all images :/ sorry)

Valentines Day Nail Struggle

So for Valentines Day, I wanted to do something very cute and girly with my nails.

Even though we won't be going out, I wanted to do it for myself.

But then I had to come up with a cute but simple design...

It's a lot harder than I thought it was going to be.

I did a couple simple ones and had my daughter help me on others. She loves picking out the colors. We also did her nails and eventually I did end up doing one I really liked.

I will list the the colors I used below all the pictures.

Here are some of my attempts at my own Valentines Day Nails:

(Late Post) Born Pretty Store Stamping Plate

Original Date: November 5th

I am super excited to receive my first bornprettystore.com stamping plate. These are their first ones from them that they actually made. I have purchased some them before but not their own brand.

I got the #2 design, which is different kinds of lace!

8 individual designs on one circle plate.

I like the designs and I want to try the other that they made as well.

I was a bit hesitant to try them cause I didn't know how well they would work and this was their first ones. So you never know but was very pleasantly surprised!

They stamps are very nice looking and they are actually easy to pick up.

I used several different polishes and two stampers with both ends and two scrapers.

Images picked up well and stamped great on my nails. I stamped my nails, my husbands (lol), some fake nails and even glass.

Don't ask me why. I just did lol

The price is good. The plates are great. I want the rest of the collection :)

Here is the Born Pretty 02 Plate

For a discount use my code: NARYX31

Here is where you can get your own :)
