Yesterday we were traveling over the sea and today we’re beneath the water’s surface with this brown ‘O’ is for Ocean mani for #AZNailArtChallenge. I wanted to pair China Glaze’s shimmery “Choo-choo Choose You” brown with duochromes and see what kind of magic would happen. I’m loving the results. I Read More
Today I have a design inspired by a poem: “The Owl and the Pussycat” by Edward Lear. For a brief period during and after high school I would read poetry and therefore be inspired to write my own. But it wasn’t something I cared about deeply so I drifted away Read More
I’ve been using nail foil glue with nail stamping fairly regularly for a few months now so I think it’s time to talk about its pros and cons while sharing this cute tiger nail art. 🙂 How I used to decal everything… I both live in a dry climate and Read More
I try to at least paint two designs for #NailChallengeCollaborative’s month long themes, but this month was especially challenging because…pink/blue instead of food. You guys know how I feel about food. 😢 So I was sad and I wasn’t sure what to paint. I managed to get out a Pink Read More

Not acceptable. We only need one more state to make the Equal Rights Amendment Read More
[press sample] Summer is not over yet (even though people are already starting to talk about fall). I’m happy to hang onto summer a little bit longer with my final review of the stamping plates that Beauty BigBang kindly sent to me: BeautyBigBang XL-002. It’s a little bit tropical, a Read More
[Press Sample] Ah, how the simplest of plans can go awry. I have another design that was supposed to go live before this one, but I turned it in for a challenge with a final collage and it’s five days late with no word as to why. *sigh* So today Read More
