Halloween 2012: roses, spiders and skulls + party pics

Hi Everyone,

 

I went to a Halloween party this weekend in a rock cafe in Utrecht. We had so much fun. Also the pre fun of dressing up and doing our make-up and making bloody handprints on my best friend his cooking clothes. I also had fun doing the make-up of the guys. I went there with my boyfriend, my sister and my best friend. Below you also see pictures of how we look liked :) This post has a lottttt of pictures, hope you don't mind.

Of course my nails had to match my outfit.

Barielle Elle's Spell over Beauty Midnight Minx black. Stamped some roses from Konad M65 with Color Club Worth the Risque. Stamped with SN white the bat from Konad Coraline C04, Halloween from M13, and the spiders and skull from M28. Painted some mini silver rhinestones red for the eyes on my ring finger.

 

Before the skulls and spider, I already liked it this way it just had something.

 

Also some swatches of the layered base.

 

 

 

 I got this cool red flakie polish from the sweet Nat of No Holos!

 

Also a swatch of just the black base.

 

I also pimped some jewelry :)

 

And ofcourse some party pics haha lol.

 

Our full outfits. My dress short in front and long at the back and full of skulls. 

 

Having fun with the stage blood, my handprints where everywhere...he killed me..I was even writing help in blood.

 

 A little spider on my cheek.

 

 Somehow I looked really white here, thought it was also cool if I really was that white (only for Halloween)

Me and my sister.

 

 Rhinestones are not just for your nails :P I thought lets stick them to my face :) haha.

 

 My sister Angelique, my best friend Dennis, me and my boyfriend Dave (trying to look angry hahaha).

Inspired by music/song challenge (Bon Jovi)

Today I'll show you my creations I made for the inspired by your favourite music/song challenge. I don't really have one favourite band or music style but I do like these songs for many years now. And my mom also liked Bon Jovi especially the song Bed of Roses.

This is my 1st for this challenge inspired by these lyrics:

  

It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up.

Bon Jovi - Always

I actually found this one funny... it tells a story ;) But not pretty and I only had this on one hand and went out the door with it, with on my other hand something completely different ;)

It's been raining and the water level is rising on each finger. On my ring finger a girl who's been left by her boyfriend looking sad waving goodbye with a broken heart. And the water level keeps on rising and on my thumb it's at the top. And the girl just gave up looking sad/angry she is drowning in the flood (all the bubbles of her last breath).

Base China Glaze Moody Blue, water sponged with PSN sky blue on top a layer of Maybelline Bolt of blue 140 for the glitter. Rain stamped with Konad SN blue and M13, waves to make it more look like water from H20 (SN pastel blue), broken heart from M18 (made it broken myself) girls from Coraline C02 and C05 (SN black pearl), bubbles from M16, M34 and M35 (SN blue, black pearl).

My 2nd creation was also from a song from Bon Jovi and I did these because it was also one of my moms favourite songs.

I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
for tonight I'll sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as, the Holy Ghost is,
and lay you down on a bed of roses.

Bon Jovi - Bed of Roses

These I found a lot prettier ;) and did it on both hands and I'm still wearing it.

Somehow I really love blue and I was in a blue mood so I chose for a blue base again. Base is Teeez Cool 02 a blue holographic polish and on my ring finger Nfu Oh 65 a light blue holo. I stamped some roses from M65 with SN black pearl on them and on my ring finger a love couple (self made water decal) from a guy who'd love to lay his girl on a bed of roses ;) also stamped a blue rose from M25 with SN blue and SN black pearl above them.

I know there is a lot more to the song then just that one sentence, but I only used the Bed of Roses part literally for this creation ;)

I hope you like my music inspired creations :)

Valentine's Day ideas part 6

Today another lovely Valentine creation. But I'm really bummed, I just couldn't get this normal on a photo. The flash made the holo effect too strong and then I couldn't see the metallic stamps anymore. But without flash it became blurry...so sorry for these bad pictures.

On the first photo you can see the colors the best and on the second photo you can see the design better.

Base China Glaze QT from the OMG Collection. Stamped with China Glaze Admire and imageplate BM11 and China Glaze Emotion and Konad imageplates M3 and M18. On my ring finger a light pink heartshaped rhinestone.

And some older Valentine's Day creations :) This one I made in 2010 for Valentine's Day.

China Glaze Lubu Heels with China Glaze Long Kiss roses stamped from M65. Pink hearts from M2 with China Glaze Admire.

The next one I didn't made for Valentine but it could be something you could wear at Valentine's Day ;) This is from the beginning of 2009.

The base is a french with some pearly polish don't know the brand any more, stamped with Konad SN red and green imageplate M40.

This I actually made for my boyfriends birthday in September 2009. It was his choice the base color and design. I find it also something romantic so it's also a good idea for Valentine's Day.

Base OPI Rosy Mistletoe-sies stamped with M65 and China Glaze Admire.

Photo without flash.

I'm planning one more creation for V-day, something special voor my boyfriend ♥

Valentine's Day ideas part 2

For today a quick red with black Valentine's idea.

Base China Glaze Red Stallion with a coat Golden Rose Scale Effect No 10 for the flakies, see swatches below. Stamped with Konad SN Black and image plate M65, on my ringfinger M13.

Here some swacthes:

Zoya Ivanka (+ nailart)

This is my first Zoya nailpolish I really love the color. To bad my camera couldn't capture it's true beauty. Now it is a bit to dark.

This photo is with flash.

Another one with flash but darker skintone.

A blurry one so you can see the sprakle.

Photo in daylight.

I wanted to do some Konad on it, but I don't really like how that turned out. I do think it's kinda okay in real life but not on photo (because of the flash but without I couldn't take a photo at all). I feel like a floral curtain or something. And the color combination reminds me of Christmas :) I used M65, this is one of the few full nail design I can stamp double so when I use a full nail design I often choose this one. I stamped with China Glaze 2030. I'm not really pleased with this creation, but it's just for a few days because this weekend my friend Brenda is going to paint on my nails (I believe you call it one stroke and maybe she also makes some 3D acryl flowers). She is just 13 years old but so very good. Ofcourse I'll write a blog about it.

Nubar Gem swatches + nailart

A few months ago I ordered my first Nubar polishes. One of them was this beauty from the Prism collection.

I am just totally in love. It's such a nice color and wow the holographic glitter is awesome.I didn't do much nailart on it, just a simple black rose from Konad M65. And on my ringfinger a swarovski diamond.

Here are some swatch pictures:

With flash.

Without flash under a bright light.

Blurry without flash, look at those colors!!!

With flash, lighter skintone option.

Blurry with flash, I just love the holo glitter.
