Nuts 4 Nails

Don't you love it when you find a polish in your collection that you haven't used in a long time, but it was totally awesome? Well, for me, it's this one by Revlon! The color is called Aquamarine and it is from the gorgeous, limited edition, chroma chameleon collection''. It is a perfect shade for Spring! 

I was looking at some different blogs on the internet and I came across this one called Ella Claire . I saw free Valentine printables and it quickly inspired me to do nails that match!! She has an amazing eye for detail! 

Hi everyone! I really like how these turned out! The stamping plate is 030 by Qgirl. I sponged on the colors using Purple POP and Pink-y Swear from the Salon Perfect Neon POP colors. Then the blues are Sinful Colors, Endless Blue and Broadway Nails, Waterproof. Hope you like it!!

Today my design is baby shower nails! I really like this one. The base colors is used were Sally Hansen's Pink A Card and BK #28 from Born Pretty . The stamping plate is XY-P04. Super cute! The letters are stamping plates B52 & B53. All stamping polishes are by Moyou Nails, light blue , pink and white .

This is a simple design that you can do in any color! The stamping plate I used here is from bundle monster BM-410 . The Essie polish in the picture is called I'm addicted and the gold polish is Gold Links by Studio M. Simple but super cute!!

I haven't done a free hand design in a while! I love this one because it's so simple yet so pretty! This polish is so beautiful in person. It has shades of purple, blue and teal! It's called Aquamarine by Revlon in the chroma chameleon collection. I just drew the black lines with a liner brush and used a dotting tool for the white polka dots. Hope you give this one a try! 😁

This pretty color is called Waterproof by Broadway Nails. It actually does remind me of the color of water and when I think of water I think of beach towels in a chevron pattern. :) I used 2 different stamping plates here both from Bundle Monster. They are BM-423 and BM-401 .

Hi everyone!! Spring is finally here!!  My husband just loves birds! We have like 20 different bird feeders in our yard. I have to admit, we do get some really cool ones out there! We've seen cardinals, red and gold finches, chickadees, sparrows of all kinds and even a woodpecker! Right now we are waiting for the hummingbirds to arrive. So he's been bugging me to do bird nails for weeks! Lol. I used a variety of stamping plates that had bird images on it or branches, All were from MoYou London Mother Nature collection. 

Hi everyone!! I feel like I haven't been on here since last year!(ha,ha)  ;). Now that the madness from the holidays are over, I can get back to having some fun! For my first design of 2016, I wanted to do something with the color blue so I used a variety of blues from the  LA Colors , Color Craze collection. From left to right the polish names are  Static Electricty , Aquatic , Sea Foam and Meadow . The stamping plate I used is from bornprettystore.com   BP-25  and thier  black stamping polish  as well.

Hi everyone! This was a very simple nail design and it is super sparkly in person! To do this look, I always start with a white base coat. It always makes colors pop! The in the bottom picture I used a make up sponge and made a gradient effect. The polishes used are I'm Addicted by Essie (the blue) and Pink Bubbles by L.A Colors Color Craze. When that was all dry I added a few coats of NYC polish called Starry Sliver Glitter. It has pink and blue glitter in it and a really cool silver sparkle too. I was going to add a design over it but sometimes less is more. These nails would be awesome for Prom or whenever you want some sparkle! :) 

This is a quick and easy design. I love dasies but I wanted to give them a little twist. I love, love, love this blue by Milani. It is called Power Periwinkle . The stamping plate is from Born Pretty Store ,   BP-46 . Then I just added pink dots in the middle of the flowers insted of the usual yellow. Hope you like this one!   You can get the stamping plate here:  http://www.bornprettystore.com/banana-tree-nail-stamping-template-image-plate-born-pretty-bp46-p-18789.html .

The pretty blue is called Endless Blue, the red is Ruby Ruby  and the white is Snow Me White.  The stars are from my MoYou London Princess Collection plate #14 and the wavy stripes are from a plate I got from bornprettystore.com , it's by Ya Qin An, plate Y007 . ( I did a review on it, you can find it in my older posts ) and I topped it off with some star shaped rhinestones. :)

I get a lot of my nail design color inspiration from interior design palettes. I love this color combo of turquoise, grey and fuchsia. I was dying to try it and I just love the results!! For this design, I started with a white base. Let it dry. To do the gradient, I just apply the polish to a make up wedge and then press it onto the nail (as shown it photo below).  Then I stamped it with white stamping polish and stamping plate BP-20 from bornprettystore.com . To finish it off, I used a dotting tool to make the center of the flowers. Then I just did my clean up and put a clear coat on top. :)  I hope you all like it!!  The polishes used here are Sinful Colors-Dream On, Essie-I'm Addicted and  Sweet Color-Gray. The white stamping polish is by MoYou Nails

Happy Spring everyone!! Today I wanted to do butterflies and it just so happened that Born Pretty Store sent me an awesome stamping plate   BP-34 to do just that!! :). I have to say that I am really impressed with the new line of stamping plates that they have come out with! They work beautifully and they keep coming out with more and more! Actually, on 3/26 they are releasing new ones!!  The pastel purple and blue polish are from Born Pretty Store as well. I used #10  and #28  in this photo.  Here's the plate!  You can buy it here:  http://www.bornprettystore.com/romantic-butterfly-patterns-nail-stamp-template-image-plate-born-pretty-bp34-p-17917.html Don't forget to use my 10% off code PQL91.

First I will tell you the polishes I used from left to right. LA Colors- Boomerang, LA  Colors- Electra and Essie- I'm Addicted. The stamping plate I used for the flower design is from Born Pretty Store ,  BP-07 .  The little silver studs are from there also. I actually did the stamping decal method here. If you are not familiar with that, it's when you get a plastic baggie and paint a square of clear nail polish onto it. When it dries, you stamp your design onto the clear square you made. Then you can color in your design however you choose. I apply another coat of clear over the top of that to seal it up. I let it sit over night and in the morning it will just peel off!. Then I put it on top of a coat of white polish and that's it! I may to a tutorial in the future to show this method. :) Round studs: http://www.bornprettystore.com/500pcs-12mm2mm3mm-mini-gold-silver-round-stud-rhinestone-nail-decoration-wbox-p-12411.html .  Use my 10% off code ANGELI...

For this design, I started with a black base from LA Colors nail lacquer. The stamping plate used is from bornprettystore.com  BP-09. I then put a drop of yellow, blue and pink stamping polish from MoYou Nails  in different spots on the design. When I scraped it, it blended very nicely and made a bit of purple in there too! 

I wanted to show you guys this awesome polish by K.B. Shimmer  .It's called Snow Much Fun. " This light blue jelly sparkles with light blue holo glitter, white glitters in several sizes and finishes, a sprinkling of micro holographic glitter, and of course, white snowflake glitter". I put mine over a darker blue from Sinful Colors, Endless Blue. I love it! If you like the ring in this picture, I am having a giveaway for it over on my facebook page . Good Luck! 

This is my African safari nail art. I love this one. I first used a sponge to get the light blue, pink and purple sky, I wanted it to look like it was at sunset. I used plate BP-16 from bornprettystore.com  (link below). I always use MoYou Nails stamping polish (link below also). They always leave a really crisp image. Then I made the tips and the animals black because in my mind that's what it would look like at sunset. :)  Safari plate:  http://www.bornprettystore.com/zebra-wolf-animal-patterns-nail-stamp-template-image-plate-born-pretty-p-17261.html Stamping polishes: http://moyou.us/product-category/moyou-nail-polishes/
