Spring nails with Woodstock ♥

Hello Hello,

The weather is finally feeling it more like Spring here in Holland. And the challenge in AIS today is Spring colors, so I decided to make Springy nails ;) My short middle nail on my "photo" hand is also almost the same length again :) So I made the rest a bit shorter too, know you can hardly see the difference.

The base is a subtle gradient from an older LE from Essence called Essence Blossoms etc ...02 I Like and 05 Forget-Me-Not. With Spectraflair topcoat on top. Stamped some Spring flowers with Konad M2 using SN white and SN yellow dots. Self made water decals of Woodstock ♥

Another picture with different lighting.

Just decals before the stamping.

And of course some swatches of these pretty polishes, the normal swatch and the gradient one.

 Essence Blossoms etc ...02 I Like. And I do like this color a lot :)

And another pic with the bottles in my hand. This one of my favorite LE's from Essence, I also have the yellow one (posted that about 2 years ago). I believe there were also a green and a purple one but I don't have those :(

Hope you all have a great weekend.

I can't wait for warmer weather and a lot of sunshine ♥

Thanks for reading :)

Happy Easter! Skittle nails + short holiday pics :)

Happy Easter everyone!

Like I said yesterday, I made Easter nails a week ago before a went on a short holiday to Center Parcs in Belgium. We had fun especially in the sub tropical pool with the under water camera. And it was sooo cold that week, with snow...so it felt more like Winter then almost Easter and Spring time. When I go swimming I always love to paint my toes too, so I did a pedi and a mani :)

Base P2 Ship Ahoi! 01 Pure white, sponged with Konad SN pastel yellow, SN pastel green, SN pastel violet, SN pastel blue, China Glaze Peachy Keen and SN pastel pink. With a layer of China Glaze wireless holographic topcoat.

Stamped the eggs in the same colors as the tips of the gradient base imageplate Nailways Spring Time - Easter Bunny A-NW00006 and Konad SN white flowers from M2. Little dots in the same pastel colors made with a dotting tool.

My right hand.

Again my left hand with the shorty in the middle with different lighting.

And of course some pics of both hands with the gradient base.

And like I said I also did a Easter skittle pedi :) And took some pictures in the pool and under water :)

Base China Glaze Peachy Keen, China Glaze Lemon Fizz, China Glaze Moody Blue, Chine Glaze Go Go Pink and China Glaze Refreshmint. Stamped the full nail eggs with Nailways Spring Time- Easter Bunny A-NW00006 plate. With Konad SN pastel orange, SN yellow (mixed with orange), SN sky blue, SN pink pearl and SN green. 

Again but then a underwater shot :)

It so much fun playing with the under water camera.

And some pictures of my mani in Center Parcs and other holiday pics.

 In the market dome with flamingos in the back.

 At the children's petting zoo/farm with a cow.

At the sort of beach around the lake. It looks so warm and sunny but it was freezing, if you look closely you see the lake is frozen in the back.

 We even had snow :( soooo cold.

But it does look pretty the white snowy scenery with the Swan shaped water pedals.

Walking on the high wooden rope brigde on heels :P lol.

 Petting the sheep who walk free in the entire park :)

 Walking over the stones in the tropical Market Dome.

 The pretty flamingos.

The parrots.

 Dave and my sis in the Market Dome.

 At the other side of the pond walking with Yoshi the dog, Dave took this pic from "our" back yard.

 Me and my sis in the Discovery Bay with the water drops.

 Look no feet :P

Dave and I in the Pirate boat.

 Poor duckies on the frozen pond.

 Cool tree :)

 Let's pretend it is Spring/Summer ;) lol well that day without the wind it was very nice there.

 Part of the pool from above.

Under water...lol.

Have a nice Easter everyone.

V-day 2013 pastel gradient with hearts and kisses

Hi Everyone,

Today a V-day creation I've made today :) I was inspired by something I've made in 2009 but back then I used loose glitter over the sponging instead of a glitter topcoat and also used a different purple. Also had more hearts and no kisses see this post.

Sponged the base with Konad SN pastel pink, SN white and SN pastel violet, holo glitter topcoat from INM Nothern Lights. Stamped with M2, M3, M4, M18, M59, M84 Konad SN magenta and Catrice Forget me not.

Some more pictures.

And some pictures of the sponges base with the holo glitter topcoat.

I also made something like this (or more like the one I've made in 2009) last year with different colors and made my first and only video of it last year see this post.

I've entered these in a Valentines Contest from Konad if you like them you can "like"  my picture to vote and ofcourse see all the other pretty nails and like the ones you like too ;) Some have over 300 likes I know I won't make that, but that is okay I just love making themed nails for contest/challenges and like I always say having fun is most important :) 

Thanks for reading.

Enjoy your day :)

Funny .. 15 oldies from 2008 :)

Hi Everyone,

 

I still can't add photos :( Hope this problem will be solved soon. So I thought lets show a lot of oldies from 2008, when I just started stamping. I have those on a Dutch page of my mine, so I can link them and doesn't have to add new pics, since that isn't possible at the moment unless I first upload them somewhere else.

Back then I was also still struggling with my nails and trying to stop biting them completely. So my nails aren't in the best state, but I find it fun to show you those oldies too :) Although some are ugly hahaha and very bad cuticles and stuff. But it makes me laugh to see those oldies :)

 

I don't know all the base colors anymore, but I do know the plates I've used.

 

Stamped with Konad M2 and M9 using PSN gold black, SN whte, SN violet pearl and SN silver.

 

Konad M31 stamped with PSN cool red, SN yellow, SN green and SN dark orange.

 

Konad M15 stamped with SN dark orange.

 

I actually did liked these, and it was a holo from a Essence LE. Stamped with Konad M35 and SN white.

 

Konad M66 stamped with PSN chocolate, SN pink pearl and PSN light gray.

 

Konad M24 stamped with SN white.

 

Konad M8 stamped with PSN psyche pink.

 

Konad M25 stamped with SN green and PSN gold black.

 

Koand M24 and SN violet pearl.

 

Konad M8 stamped with SN pink pearl.

 

Konad M9 stamped with SN violet pearl.

 

Konad M24 stamped with SN white.

 

Koand M15 and SN blue.

 

Konad M66 stamped with SN blue, SN green and SN violet pearl.

 

This was actually the first time I took a picture of my nails in the beginning of 2008. But I like these much more then some other ones I made after that hahaha. Also my nail shape looks much better, but sometime I did start biting again, so I guess I did that after these too. Konad M29 stamped with SN green, SN red, SN yellow.

 

Hope you liked seeing my oldies haha.
