Sorry for not blogging much...

Hi Everyone,

I am so sorry for not blogging for a while, I have been so busy at home. Painting the outside wood work, new roof gutters and now we are getting a new bathroom and toilet. So I have been living in a mess for a while...and it is not over yet. But the end will be great I hope.

I haven't even posted all my Halloween mani's that I did but I guess I'll just post them all now. I have been doing my nails once or maybe twice a week so still plenty to show you all.

Halloween 2015 scenery. 

A bright gradient base with China Glaze Neon & On & On, China Glaze That's Shore Bright and Color Club Pucci-licious. Everything on my nals is stamped with MoYou Nails 304 plate. Stamped and colored using Konad and Mdu polishes.

Blood drips.

Catherine Arley 806 as a base, stamped the blood drips with MdU Reddish and the skull with Konad White. Both images are from Nailways Monsters- Halloween plate.

Candy and cute ghost.

A gradient with Nailways 132 Spiked and 133 Ponytail stamped with Konad black and BM306 and the cute little Trick or Treating ghost is from Stampaholics ST02.

Gothic graveyard.

 When I thought of this theme the colors red and black popped in my head :)  So I did a red and black gradient base using China Glaze Cranberry Splash and Catherine Arley 805. Stamped with BM13 the bat and crosses, BM409 the creepy trees, BM413 the skeleton, BM H07 the skull and BM224 the creepy house next to the graveyard. Freehanded the moon, the small crosses and all the tiny eyes.

Witch slime.

Just something quick and easy.  Base Barry M 299 Racing Green. Stamped with MdU Avocado and FUN20 and the little witch is from Bunny Nails HD-D. Happy I got to borrow my sis her Bunny plates again.

I promise to post more often.

Thanks for reading.

In loving memory of our rat Faith

Hi Everyone,

Last thursday our ratty Faith died. She would have turned 3 in about 4 weeks so she was pretty old. And she even had tumor surgery twice in her life. She was a very strong lady. Now she died very peacefully because of old age and joined her sweet sister Hope who passed away in January.

Ofcourse I had to do a mani to honor her. In the fb group WON we had a chance to submit images for a special WON plate made by Fab Ur Nails ofcourse I had to submit ratties and cheese. I drew the images myself from pictures I saw online. I once submitted these for the BM CYO too but they did not pick them so I was happy they made it on the FUN-WON. The plate also has some Arctic images on it that were my idea and some of them I drew too :) 

Gradient with China Glaze Son of a Peach and Neon & On & On. Stamped the full nail with FUN16 and MdU pastel pink. The word Faith is from FUN17 and the ratties and cheese are the images from the special FUN-WON plate. If you look close you see the one one my thumb has wings too stamped with Konad M90.  I try to color the images to match Faith her colors.

And some more pictures.

Here also one with Faith so you can see her colors.

And the last picture we took about a week before she passed away she was still very active then.

We were at the pet store this weekend to get some food and other supplies and we always look and cuddle the ratties there. But there was one who kept climbing out towards us, she was adorable and she misses part of her ear. We did not plan to get a new ratty, I said 3 were enough but I fell in love. Also because of her ear I was afraid she might become snake food...cause maybe other people would not want her. When we decided she had to come home with us and the employee saw the ear he said half price is fine....that is how little a small animal life is worth. But for us she is perfect.

On instagram there is this tag #mynailsandmyrat so I had to take a picture of our new ritten Scar and my memorial nails for Faith :)

Thanks for reading.

Have a nice weekend!

Kings Day 2015

Hi Everyone,

Last Monday the 27th was Kings Day (I still want to say Queens Day lol) been so used to say that. Sunday night it was Kings night...that usually means a night full of parties!!! And Monday it was Kings Day (fleamarkets, live music etc). I was not feeling 100% but did went to a local bar to see some live music. 

Instead of a bright orange base like I usually do I went with a black base (now that I have Mundo polishes that stamp great over black haha) :) And ofcourse did used orange our national color and the colors of our red, white and blue flag. Some Dutch mills, little crowns, tulips and ofcourse beer wink-;) 

I used Winstonia Store W105 for the beer, W215 for part of the crowns and W218 for the mills. Stamped with Mundo de Uñas 28 neon orange, 51 tulip mixed with Konad red, 1 white, 30 neon blue mixed with 5 turquoise, 18 silver and 46 mustard. The base is Sinful Colors Black on Black.

Thanks for reading!
