Bus Ride to Somewhere

March 14, 2022 Lisa 0

Today’s look is brought about by more Instagram prompts: smoosh marble and bus. I knew I had a beautiful image of a bus on KADS’ Flower-16 so I decided to go with that. I followed it up with talk of travel because it really felt like a school trip kind Read More

Moth You Be So Floral?

I’m back with another mani where I try to use the items that came in the month’s Mani x Me box. This time it worked out for me and I used everything in the box but the extra item. (A cuticle tape used to mask the area around your nail. Read More

Party Pigs

It’s time for a pig party where the pigs dance around in a vortex of polka dots while wearing crowns and eating cupcakes! Okay, it sounds a little strange to describe it in that amount of detail, but party pig nail art makes sense and has some alliteration, which I Read More

I love it when a mani looks equally good in a matte and glossy finish because it makes me feel like the number of photos I post are justified. 😂 Today’s ladybug nail art combines even more things I love by using a non-traditional ladybug color scheme (magenta and purple Read More

A coppery-y floral mani with a magnetic copper base and simple stamping images of a floral field and tiny baby blue and white butterflies.

Magnetically Donna

February 6, 2022 Lisa 1

Today’s look was inspired by one of my Instagram friends who passed away on January 20th. Donna was a wonderful, sweet friend and I am among many who will miss her. But also, happily, among many who will remember her. Which is the gift that social media has given us: Read More

A Valentine's Day nail art with rosegold lace stamping on a pink thermal jelly with reverse stamping decals saying "Call me! XOXO".

Call Me! XOXO

February 6, 2022 Lisa 0

And we’re back to the holidays with Valentine’s Day coming up. This one was a simple lace + something fun mani. I paired a “Call me! XOXO” stamping decal with more “XOXO”s and a mobile phone. Really in many ways my favorite part was the lace stamping image paired with Read More

Le Petit Prince

I did take French when I was in public school, but I never went very far with it so I never had to read Le Petit Prince on its original language. Instead, I read it on my own in English and loved it. In many ways, the fox’s words to Read More

Carnival

Here we are: my last catchup post from the move. The #AZ prompt this time was ‘I’ is for Italy. I thought about going with food since I definitely had the stamping plates for it, but I had already painted food with the France prompt. I also pretty much never Read More

Orange and white bloody french tip drip nail art on a glow in the dark base with a bloody brain stamping decal.

Brain Bleeds

January 15, 2022 Lisa 2

I’m back with another catchup post; this time for the #HalloweenForeverCollab, which I kept up with until it was moving time. It somewhat made up for missing October/Halloween last year so I’m definitely going to try and keep up with the prompts this year. Meanwhile this was August 2021’s prompt Read More

A sunset beach-themed nail art with nail stamps of palm trees, seagulls, and skeletons. The best of tropical nightmares.

Bones at the Beach

August 3, 2021 Lisa 3

I certainly meant to post this last week, but my brain has entered a fugue state which I mostly blame on the pandemic. One family member, who was vaccinated, got Covid and is still in pretty bad shape, though not so bad that they are in the hospital. I’ve started Read More
