World Cup: Proud of the Dutch Lions

Hi Everyone,

Even though we did not made it to the Final I am still proud of the Dutch team. In the beginning nobody thought we would make it this far (most people thought we would not make it pass the first round). Tonight they play for the 3rd and 4th place against Brazil. So this is my last World Cup mani. I am proud of the Dutch Lions in Brazil :)

Base Sinful Colors Snow me white and P2 divine (white shimmer). Stamped the thumbs up from FUN2, the Brazil heart from Moyou Tourist 14, the orange lion from Moyou Fairytale 12, the soccer/ foot balls from Winstonia W103, the flags from Konad M49, the lines from Nailways Back to Basics - Lines, the letters VS from Nailways Back to Basics 123ABC. And some red, white and blue dots made with a dotting tool.

I do hope we win ofcourse but I also find it okay if Brazil wins ;)

Have a nice weekend!

World Cup: The Netherlands- Mexico

Hi Everyone,

Tonight is another World Cup game for my country. We have to play against Mexico and they are good so it will be hard. But of course I had to make another mani and pedi to support my country. I love making soccer/ football nails.

Base Color Club You Got Soul-Ar (orange our national color), stamped the leg/foot and ball from Cheeky CH35, made the little flags with the stripes on Bundle Monster BM411, the Dutch wooden shoe/clog is from Moyou Tourist 15, the big ball print is from BM408, the Mexican sombrero is from BM-H24, the soccer/foot ball from Winstonia Store W103 and the World Cup name is Konad Brasil M49.

And I had to make a pedi too :)

Little and big soccer/foot ball from Winstonia Store W103 (first stamped in white then colored it with white and went over it with black) Little feet in the colors of our flag red, white and blue. (yes did my other foot on purpose different so it will stay red, white blue from left to right  ) stamped using Nailways Snowwhite- Traces and the wooden shoes (clogs) made with Moyou Tourist 15.

And a picture with both my hand and foot.

I am ready for tonights game..fingers crossed we will make it to the quarter finals :)

Thanks for reading have a nice Sunday!

Terschelling, World Cup and Oerol festival

Hi Everyone,

As many of you know I love going to Terschelling, one of the Dutch Wadden Island. I love the nature and feeling there, it always feels like home when I am there. We used to go there when we were little too. Every in June there is the Oerol festival there, this means music, theater, plays etc. There are sooo many people on the island and and it is always fun. This year we are also there and just like other years I wanted to do a Terschelling scenery but the World Cup is also now and I also always love to do something for that too....so I combined those things...

Terschelling is turning orange for the World Cup during the Oerol festival...with soccer balls all over the island and a beautiful orange sunset sky ;)

Holo base using many holo's from Golden Rose Paris, DA, Catherine Arley, Nail Nation. Self made water decals of the seagull on the pole, the seals, seagull, the lighthouse Brandaris, the flag from Terschelling, the Oerol logo, the boat. Painted the back white on some decals to make them pop. And stamped the soccer balls from Moyou Tourist 14 and Konad M49 first in white then colored them and stamped over the in black, stamped the green grass from Konad M66 and M29, and the flying seagulls are from Stampaholis ST01. Using Konad SN black, green and white.

Another picture with different light.

Also did a pedi ofcourse. Base Impala Tech with Hits Demeter (both Brazilian brands so hopefully they will bring us luck in Brazil ;)) The soccer balls from Konad M49 and self made water decals from the Terschelling flag and Oerol logo.

And my hand with my toes together. A bumped my toe while it was still wet so the ball is not round anymore haha, tried to fix it.

I usually also post some pictures of our vacation there. But I will do that in another post since I planned this post, and I haven't been on the computer since my vacation so those pictures aren't on the computer yet.

Thanks for reading.

Soccer/Football month: World Cup final Beesies nails (World Cup 2010)

Tomorrow the European Cup Final is played. Too bad we are not playing like we did 2 years ago in the World Cup Final. During the World Cup (and European Cup) you got all kinds of stuff when you went grocery shopping. At the supermarket I usually go you got Beesies, some wormy little furry creatures in the Dutch colors. They were really populair.

So I made Beesies nails :)

Base OPI Alpine Snow, selfmade water decals of Beesies. Stamped with Konad M79 and SN red and blue the stripes. And M49 SN blue the word World Cup.

To bad we did not won back then, but it was better then how we did this year at the European Cup. Soccer/Football month is now over let's go back to Summer nails :)

Soccer/Football Month: Feet, Flags and Balls (World Cup 2010)

Hello!

Like I said before it is still soccer/football month even though Holland is already home ;) We really sucked this year. But I had fun making supporting nails. These nails I made in 2010 for the World Cup. We did it better back then ;)

Base is Golden Rose Holographic no 111. A rusty orange kind of holo polish, Stamped with Konad SN black, white, red, blue. And imageplates M49 world cup, balls, flags and GCOCL B02 for the feet. Did not turned out really neat but they were okay for one match.

Here a swatch of the base color:

I love these tiny bootles of Golden Rose, they are cute :)

Soccer/Football month: Holland football nails with Orange You Hot? (European Cup 2012)

Hello Everyone,

Like I said in my previous post I wanted to make something matching with my toes for Hollands first match today. Normally I match my toes with my hands, but this time the other way around. Because I plan on leaving my toes that way for the upcoming 3 matches.

So I made my hands to same way as my toes :)

Base 3 coats of China Glaze Orange You Hot? from the Summer Neon 2012 collection. I sooo love this orange color. Stamped with M49 and M52 (bigger footballs on my thumb) first in SN white and then I colored them with a Essence pearl white nail art pen. And tried to precisely stamp over it with SN black. On my thumb a selfmade water decal of Hup Holland.

Some funny pictures with Holland supporting lions ;)

My hand and my foot

My feet picture from earlier this week.

And some swatches :)

With topcoat.

I did not cleaned up very wel, so sorry for my bit orange cutticles ;)

For my Dutch readers (and Danish ;)) have fun watching the match tonight!

Also good luck and have fun for my Portugese and German readers who play after our match and are in the same group as Holland.

Soccer/Football month: Orange You Hot? Football Toes (European Cup 2012)

Hi everyone,

My feet are already ready for our first match saturday against Denmark. I usually leave polish on my toes longer then on my hands, so think they will last for the upcoming 3 matches (we probably don't play more..yeah I know not optimistic right ;) but we have some tough opponents). As you can see in me previous post I did something similair 2 years ago during the World Cup. I just like these footballs on my toes :)

Base is China Glaze Orange You Hot? from the new Summer Neons 2012 collection. A perfect bright "Dutch" orange ;) Stamped with Konad SN black and M49 and M52. Again first stamped it in white on my big toe and colored it with a Essence nail art pen and stamped over it with black. A selfmade water decal of Hup Holland Hup (means Go Holland/Netherlands Go) it is also part of the lyrics of a Dutch soccer/football song.

I plan on making something matching on my nails for this first match :)
Will show them tomorrow!
