Garden Variety Butterflies – featuring KADS Flowers 15
I originally painted this nail art for a collab, but I was left out of the collage and list of participants. Little hard on the heart since it was the second time in a month. But I decided to make the best of it and save this for a rainy Read More
Coral, Mint, and White
This was a fun combination of #ClaireStelle8Challenge’s Chevron, #NailChallengeCollaborative’s Geometric, and #WhenColoursCollide’s coral/mint/white prompts.

#origamidaily2007 – End of June
June was supposed to be origami butterflies and utter happiness. I wasn’t as happy with the results as I wanted to be, sadly. I was hoping to find a butterfly that would translate well on a really small scale and I’m just not feeling it with any of these. I Read More
Mixed Tape Mani
There were a number of different interpretations in the Crumpet’s Nail Tarts group on the subject of “Mixed Tape Mani”. Some of us thought it means using different tape techniques and some interpreted it as the musical kind of mix tape. Some even took on both themes! I decided to Read More
