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 :)



Base a subtle gradient with Different Dimension Tubular and Born Pretty Store holo no 5. Stamped with Moyou Suki 01 (branches), Moyou Biker 08 (leaves), Moyou Back to the 60's 01 (mushroom), Winstonia W115 (owl), Winstonia W119 (turkey), Bundle Monster BM H11 (pumpkin), HB28 (spider), H21 (squirrel). Using Konad brown, black, white, yellow, green, red, orange, pastel orange and mixed some. From some images I made stamping decals, some I double stamped and the rest is just normal stamping :)

Here a pic of the sublte holo gradient.


I entered these in a Fall/Thanksgiving contest :)


Hope you all have a great thanksgiving for those who celebrate :) The rest hope you all just have a great day too :)

I am really happy with how these turned out.

Thanks for reading.

Terschelling (Dutch Wadden Island) 2012 + holiday pics

Hi everyone,


Last year around this time I went to Terschelling (one of the Dutch Wadden Islands). When I was little we used to go there a lot of Summers for our family vacation. In June there is this festival called Oerol, it is music, theatre, art festival everywhere on the island are stages and also on the streets. I was there a couple of days during the Oerol last year and I will be going this year again with my family. I will be celebrating my Birthday there too :) 

I will be making Terschelling scenery nails this year again too and they will probably look similair to these. But these were my nails from last year :) With the old Terschelling lighthouse called the Brandaris and seagulls, seals, the Terschelling flag, the boat etc. 


The base are different holo's from the China Glaze Kaleidoscope collection to make a beach scenery with sand, sea and sky. Self made water decals of different things from Terschelling,...seagulls, beach pole, the flag, seals, the Brandaris (lighthouse), the boat. Stamped with Konad SN green and M29 and M66 some sort of grasses. With SN white and M79 the clouds and with SN black and H18 the birds on my ring finger.

With different lighting, so you see the decals better.

I also did a pedi, with a holo base stamped some sort of waves from H21 with SN blue and the Terschelling flag water decal on my big toe.

For those of you who like to see some vacation pictures. And like to get to know our Dutch Wadden Islands I have added some pics :)

 My sister and I and Yoshi on the boat (it's a 2 hour boat trip from the main land and always very windy).

 Yoshi the Teckel on the boat..she found it a bit scary.

 Dave and I in the rain on a wet festival, no people no music :(

The festival was cancelled for that night because of too bad weather, so we had to go and went to the bars to have some indoor fun.

My dad had a couple of beers already and we were acting funny. So daddy got kisses from both his daughters :)

 After some more beers ;)

 Luckily the weather was much better the day after. As you can see a lot of people.

The day after that it was rainy and stormy again :( but we had fun anyway (well Dave not so much cause he hates bad weather :P )

 The beach, it is one of Europe's widest beaches and a long walk before you reach the sea.

 Jellyfish.

 My dad made his own stunt kites and we always love to kite on Terschelling.

 Me in  front of the Oerol sign where you could pick up your entrance bracelet.

 The beach during low tide.

 Biking at dusk and looking at the horses.

 Petting this cute "punk" horse :)

 My dad as Elvis in the Heartbreak hotel (it isn't hotel but a beach club and they play Elvis music and rock and roll)

 Acting crazy on a beach pole. Or how you call it in English haha.

 Really big dad crab.

 We had one warm day and were totally pink (sun burned). My sis and I enjoying Terschelling beer made of wild cherries that grow there.

A family picture and the famous lighthouse called the Brandaris. This year my dad's girlfriend will be joining us for a couple of days.

 West Terschelling city.

 They call this the Green Beach cause of all the green. It is very big too.

 Just some forest nature.

 Eating at the old Mill :) 

 Hessel and his daughter Tess, 2 famous singers from the island. They perform in their own restaurant/bar almost every night in the main holiday season.

 The boat on my thumb with the real boat in the background.

 One week has past and we had to go home again....bye Terschelling see you next year.

 Always funny how the seagulls follow the boat.

 All kinds of boats pass by.

 The Dutch flag is fluttering at the end of the boat.

Some more nail pics with different lighting.


And some nail pics taken on Terschelling with nice backgrounds :)
 With the Brandaris (lighthouse) in the back.

 With the Terschelling flag just like on my ring finger.

Again with the Brandaris just like on my middle finger.


Thanks for watching// reading :) Hope you like seeing more of Terschelling one of our Dutch Wadden Islands. I always love going there, and can't wait to go there in a couple of days again, love the nature and the Oerol festival. And hope the fresh sea air will do me good so I will be feeling better again :)

Kawaii ice cream nails

Here just a quick blog post from me. My mind isn't really into blogging right now. I made these for my dad's 60th birthday yesterday. Despite all the bad thing we are going true I thought we do needed to celebrate it. Even my mom thought so and she arranged my uncles and aunts to come as a surprise. So I made some happy nails (hoping they made me feel happy too).

Base China Glaze Kaleidoscope Don't be a square and He's going in circles. Some sort of confetti stamped with Konad SN pastel pink on the green base and SN pastel green on the pink base imageplate H21. And  some self made water decals of cute Kawaii ice creams. I colored the eyes with Essence nailart pen pearl white.

With flash.

Here some pics of only the stamping.

Also some swatches of these gorgeous base colors.




Have a nice day.
