31 Day Challenge, Day 5 "Dotting Tools" Salmon with Black Dots

Just a very simple design with the dotting tools. My six year old daughter picked the base color. It's a weird color! It's a polish I picked up at Forever 21, and their polish doesn't seem to have names.

Honestly, I wanted to do something way more awesome, but I was in such a hurry again. I was lucky to get this done before the baby woke up. I wanted to add black decals, but I don't have any.

*le sigh*

The good thing is I am on schedule for the 31 day challenge.

Hmmmm, well that's it for now. I have a "half and half" mani to get done for today's challenge.

Bye for now!

31 Day Challenge, Day 2 "Tape Mani" ...Mint and Lilac Manicure

I joined Debbie Crumpets Crumpet's Nail Tarts 31 Day Challenge. I'm absolutely nuts, but I will try my hardest to complete it! Because we all know I have plenty of time for that. *insert sarcasm here*

My first mani of the challenge actually fits into three different categories, so I need to figure out which one I want to squeeze it into.

I'm not completely happy with how it turned out. My dotting kinda sucks. My first dotticure was amazing. This one? Not so much.

So here's what I came up with

MAJOR DOTTING FAIL!

Yeah, my dotting sucks so bad. I don't know what happened.

...but I love this feminine color combo so much.

Here's the materials I used:

Base color - Pure Ice, Home Run

Dot color - Pure Ice, Lacquered Lilacs

Stripe color - Salon Perfect nail art striper - Silver plated

Dotting tool by Cina

Painter's tape 

Scissors

Well, I'm reaching for the acetone and ready to strip this off and start planning my next design. Wish me luck...
