Centerparcs nails on Nubar Reclaim & China Glaze L8R G8R

 hoI'm going to Centerparcs (for those of you who don't know what it is, it's bungalow park with subtropical swimmingpool etc.) it has parks in Holland, Germany, Belgium, France and also England I believe. I made special nails for this mini break ;) I love making theme nails hahahaha.

Base Nubar Reclaim and on my ring finger China Glaze L8R G8R. Self made water decals of the Centerparcs logo on my ring vinger and thumb. Stamped with imageplate H20 Konad SN white mixed with China Glaze L8R G8R and on my ring finger I stamped with Konad SN green mixed with Nubar Reclaim (that kind of disappears because of the flash)

Lately we were talking about nail art rings, that you can decorate and paint yourself, on this Dutch nail forum Beautiful Nails 4 You and ofcourse I also wanted to try that. So I painted this ring with Nubar Reclaim. And a decal of the Centerparcs logo (I messed it up a bit because it was still wet when I putted it on and then wanted to take it off ;) ) This ring is not really my thing and a bit too big for me (don't like it that I can't put my fingers together), but I love the idea.

Matching ring on my ring finger ;)

I found this cute teddy bear from Centerparcs at home (got it from my sister many years ago as a souvenir) and ofcourse I had to take a picture with it :)
Sooo cute :)

I already like this creation without the stamping and just the polish and decal, but I love stamping so much so I just had to add some.

Photo of just the base with the water decal on my ring finger.

Ofcourse I'm spendig a lot of hours in the swimming pool, so I had to make matching toes ;) And the weather is nice here too, so time for flip flops and summer shoes :)

Base of my toes is China Glaze L8R G8R, on my big toe decals of the Centerparcs logo. The rest stamped with H20 and Konad SN green mixed with Nubar Reclaim.

To end this blog some swatches of the base:
I really love these 2 polishes together. Photo with flash.

I won't be able to blog or comment on your blogs this week, so I say bye for now and see you next week!

China Glaze Monte Carlo with nail art

This was one of my first China Glaze polishes but I never used it (I did marbled with it sometimes). It is a beautiful pink polish. I did some quick nail art on it after a "killed" Keroppi :(

Base China Glaze Monte Carlo, stamped with Konad SN pink pearl and imageplate M69. White flowers stamped with SN white and imageplate M7. In the white flowers some SN pastel pink dots made with a dotting tool.

Here some swatches, it looks like I still have a visable nail line on these photo's.....that wasn't showing in real life. But I guess I could have used a third coat ;)

With flash.

Keroppi Nails (on OPI Bikini Envy)

My big sister is a huge Hello Kitty/ Sanrio fan, and she collects all kinds of stuff from it. Mostly small Hello Kitty figures, but also stuffed animals. Not only from Hello Kitty but also Hello Kitty's friends the other Sanrio characters. Last christmas she gave me a cute stuffed animal of Keroppi (Hello Kitty's frog friend) and she said I should make Keroppi nails and then take a photo with the stuffed animal :) And that is what I finally did ;)

Base OPI Bikini Envy with self made water decals of Keroppi (and I believe his sister). I stamped with Konad PSN Cool Red some water lilies up side down with imageplate M66. Also from M66 water lily pads/leafs with PSN Apple Ggreen.

All my nails.

On my thumb I colored his eyes and clothers with a white nail art pen from Essence.

My nails with only the decals and cute Keroppi stuffed animal.

My nails with the decals without the stamping.

Here a swatch of OPI Bikini Envy:
Very sweet light green color with  some sort of white shimmer in it.

Flowers, pink, sailing and holo (Nfu Oh) all things I love ♥

Last week I mentioned I had Nfu Oh 63 on my nails and I wanted to post that friday but blogger was down. And in the weekends I normally am not online. So I will show you this today. Not last weekend but the weekend before that we hired a small moterboat in Giethoorn, and my best friend, his girlfriend, my boyfriend and I had so much fun that day. Ofcourse I took some photos of my nails there, the last time I was there I took the photo that is my blog logo now with the big water lily. I wanted take a new one with a lily but unfortunately it was to early in the season and the lilies were not in bloom yet. I did take some other nature photos. So I have a lot of photo spam for you :)

Base Nfu Oh 63, self made water decals of this cute pink flower (Frangipani). Stamped with XL plate B and OPI Rosy Mistletoe-sies.

Photo made from to boat in the background some sort of a small windmill.

It was such a beautiful sunny hot day ♥

Debora ♥ Dennis aren't they cute. (she is the one who always gets me those nice Brazilian nail polishes).

They call Giethoorn also the Dutch Venice because of all the water and bridges.

Just a pretty photo :)

Me and my boyfriend captain Dave ;) He's was at the rudder most of the time.

Some cows.

 Isn't he sweet?


Me at the rudder :)

Now here are the regular photos ;) I also took a few because with decals and holo it sometimes is difficult to take a good photo.

Photo with flash under artificial light.

 Without flash or any direct (sun) light. So you can see the decals a bit better.

Ofcourse I also took some swatch photos:

I sooo totally love Nfu Oh holo's and also loved this creation I had it on my nails for more then a week.

I also painted my toe nails. I wasn't really matching but it did matched a lillte bit because I used this Nfu Oh for stamping. For those of you who don't like the see foot photos..... DON'T look ;)

 Base Teeez Outta Control a beautiful bright dark purple holo nail polish.

I stamped some flowers from XL plate F with Nfu Oh 63 and Nfu Oh 65.

Green and Glitter nails + Liebster Blog award

Ever since I bought the glitter Essence Twin duo 06 Edward I was thinking that it would look great over China Glaze Four Leaf Clover (that looks a bit like Essence Bella that belongs with Edward). So last week I decided to try that out.

Base China Glaze Refresh-mint and a french of China Glaze Four Leaf Clover. On top of the french Essence Twins duo 06 Edward. I stamped with China Glaze Four Leaf Clover and Konad imageplate M57. On my ring finger Istamped a flower from M31 also with China Glaze Four Leaf Clover, in the middle a silver rhinestone.

My camera had a bit of trouble to take a photo of the true color of Four Leaf Clover. The french and stamps really looked the same color in real life ;)

Photo without flash in natural daylight.

Butterflies in the sky (P2 530 Charming)

This creation I made this weekend. I had it in my head the day I got these decals from one of my nail friends (thank you Syl). I did not really found this creation beautiful but I found it funny :) and it reminded my of wallpaper from a children's room. (that is what my mom and I said) I did found it very happy :)

I was in a supermarket in Germany and an older lady was handing out chocolates for the customers and I grabbed one and she noticed my nails. And wanted to see them and she was talking too fast so I couldn't understand everything but she really liked them. All I could say was Danke Danke Danke with my blushing head ;)

It could also be something for Easter with the clouds (look like dots from a distance).

Base P2 530 Charming, beautiful blue polish that reminds me a bit of Orly Snowcone, stamped with Konad SN white and imageplate M77. Water decals of some great colorfull butterflies, I got them from a friend (not self made). Photo with flash.
