another late night nail painting (party of one!) happened Saturday at midnight. and, unless i have a girl, i don't foresee myself painting them anytime before 10pm ever again. ha.
as you can see, i was inspired by my scarf...
...that i made myself! leopard print. i will have to tell you about that later. i'm almost embarrassed to post about it tho because it was too easy :)
here are the colors of choice. look at me getting all fancy with my backgrounds. my other one(white foam board) got demolished in our last move, so here i am using cardstock and an envelope...so legit, i know.
another close up of the nails.
here's what else i used:
left-konad nail stamp plate, m57. this was actually the first *nail plate i ever bought. awe. my sis-in-law and i got it at a kiosk in the mall and paid $6 for it! so ridiculous don't ever buy yours there. amazon is the way to go girls. i am eyeing this set right now or this one.
right-nyc, MATTE me crazy. this definitely classifies as a "fun find"! i picked up this little gem randomly on a Winco trip back in December, and this was my first time using it. i love the change(not gloss) and how it makes my nails look!
*i have found(through trial and error) that the best polishes to use for stamping are the Wet n Wild brand (see above). it has to be thicker to look good when stamped, and i wasn't about to go buy a new set of polishes just for stamping..
