♥ HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY IN HEAVEN ♥

Hi Everyone,

Sunday (tomorrow) it is Mother's Day. Seeing all those commercials, advertisements and interviews about moms and their kids makes me a little extra sad and teary. My mommy is an angel and with days like this I miss her even more. As most of you know she died waaay too young with Christmas 2,5 years ago :(

The nail art challenge theme in different groups this week was Mother's Day, so I made an Angel in Heaven with blue sky, white clouds and hearts. Wishing her a Happy Mother's Day in Heaven. I love doing something special for her.

Base P2 Satin Supreme 050 royal residence. Stamped the full nail clouds with Konad SN white and Moyou Artist 10 also used that plate for the Angel. The small hearts are from Moyou Mother Nature 01 and the bigger heart from FUN7, the word mom in the heart is from Moyou Biker 08. And the words "Happy Mothers Day in Heaven” are made from the titles of the Moyou plates....well that was so difficult to do pffffff. Stamped the letters on a ziplock baggy to make a stamping decal from it, so hard to line them up. Used Konad SN black, SN red, SN white and a nude color from Impala that I forgot the name of for stamping and coloring.

I did not really liked my thumb with the winged heart but I did take a picture of it.

 Used Messy Mansion MM03 for the heart, Moyou Roxy 01 for the wings and FUN12 for the word mom.

And ofcourse a swatch of the base polish.

I really liked the satin finish in this.

This mani is for all the mommies who are Angels <3

Have a nice weekend and lovely Mother's Day, give your moms an extra hug from me.

Christmas Angels... in loving memory of my Mom ♥

Hi Everyone, 

Hope you all have a lovely Christmas with all your loved ones. As you all may remember I’ve lost my mom on 2nd Christmas Day 2011. So that is exactly 2 years ago today. Just like last year I wanted to do something special for her, to honor her. And just because I miss her. This way she is kinda with me/us on my nails (lol I know that probably sounds stupid ;) but I like doing something special).  

I chose to do Angels (or Cherubs or how you want to call them ;)) Cause my mommy is an angel and hope she is looking down from Heaven.  

A nude base from P2 680 glamour. On top of that a white/gold shimmer polish from a really old LE from Catrice called African Beauty C01 Savanna Lodge. Stamped twinkle golden holo stars with China Glaze GR8 and Moyou Festive (aka Christmas) 01. Made stamping decals from the Angels from Moyou Artist 10 and also from the heart on that plate (removed the arrow). Colored the angels with a  Konad stamping polish mix I’ve made and China Glaze GR8 (also used that to color the heart). Stamped gold and black stars from Moyou Festive (aka Christmas) 01 using China Glaze 2030 and Konad SN black. Stamped the word Mom in the heart from Moyou Biker 08 with Konad SN black.

Here another picture of my nails with different lighting.  

The images are pretty big so they’ve lost most of their wings ;) wish Moyou made these a little smaller, my nails aren’t that width. But I do really like this mani ♥ 

Also a picture of just the base with the holo twinkle stars.  

Thanks for reading.

Wishing you all a wonderful day ♥

Big Christmas hugs

Holiday Memories ♥

Hi Everyone,

Today a special mani for me :) The final week of the Nail Polish Canada Holiday challenge is “Holiday Memories” this can be whatever your favourite part of the holidays is, whatever gives you that warm fuzzy feeling. 

This theme was really special for me, as most of you know I lost my mother on 2nd Christmas Day 2011, so my favorite memories are the ones with my mom.  Especially when she was “playing” Santa and when she was wrapping our presents. Cause me and my sister always knew what was inside the presents just by looking at the shape and feeling it. That is when she started to wrap them inside objects or make strange shapes of the presents.

Like when we got a lipstick she would put it inside a “toilet roll” or using old boxes from other stuff. Then we opened the present and saw a pack of candles, but the real present was inside that box. The weeks before Christmas she spend hours in the addict wrapping the presents. And my dad always mumbled why she would always keep old boxes/packages from stuff….then she would say well it is for Christmas ;) Unwrapping them on Christmas Eve was always so fun ♥ 

This is my favorite Holiday Memory…sure miss those days.  So I did a mani representing these things, with on my ring finger a heart with the word mom and a Santa hat on top, cause my mom was our Santa. And on the other nails different presents. 

Base Color Club winter affair mini Berry and Bright and P2 010 Pure White with P2 260 Divine on top for the shimmer. Gold full nail stamp with Essence A piece of Forever (Pueen 45). Made a stamping decal of a piece of the mom heart (Moyou Biker 08) stamped a Santa hat on top (Winstonia W120). The present are from Moyou Festive (aka Christmas) 01. Using Konad SN white, SN black and SN red.

And another pic with different lighting.

I really love participating in this 3 weeks challenge :) Like I said I believe I am not eligible for any prizes since I am not in the US or Canada, but I do love entering for the fun. You can vote for your favorite by clicking the link above (also still time to join yourself). If you like mine best I do appreciate it ♥

These days are always extra hard for me, but my mom loved Christmas so I think it is also kind of pretty she died on Christmas day cause she loved that holiday. 

Thank you for reading :)

Happy Thanksgiving :)

Hi Everyone,

I want to wish all my US readers a Happy Thanksgiving :) So today I have a Fall/Autumn Thanksgiving mani for you all :) I call this another episode from my Children's book :) cause someone once commented on a mani that it reminded her of children's book illustrations :) And with my Fairytale nails I also wrote a little story....the story on my nails lol :) So this time it is a thanksgiving episode in the forest with all kinds of cute animals. I love doing scenery/ landscape nails :)
