Born Pretty Store Stamping Plate 16 Review

What better way to start off 2015 than with a nail art look inspired by Elton John's "The Circle of Life"? As soon as I saw the Born Pretty Store stamping plate 16 this song came instantly to mind; and I knew I had my inspirational song for day 22 of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge  2014 (please disregard that it's now 2015 and let me wrap up this goal from last year...heh).

The Friday Night Knitting Club Inspired Nails

Today's post was inspired by a book (series) the Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs and is the day 24 prompt of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge  2014. I'm disappointed in how these nails turned out, but I really want to finish the challenge before I leave for vacation on Thursday so I've decided to post this look anyway.

French Dotticure over a Subtle Pixie Dust Gradient

And I'm back again with day 11 of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge 2014, (polka) dots. I decided to layer on top of my beautiful day 10 look which featured a gradient of Zoya Cosmo (silver) & Bar (warm topaz) from the Magical Pixie Dust line.

Well, it's time for me to start playing catch up in Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge 2014 with my day 10 prompt, gradient nails.

The French Come to Bed Red

Can you believe today marks Day 1, Red, of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge 2014? I know I can't! I'm going to try my best to finish the change, even if I need to create a few twists or extensions of my own.

Graffiti Love Skittle

Today I have a fun, despite old, nail look I actually wore back in February. I call it Graffiti Love because it's got glitter, gradients, stamping, and more; oh, and I absolutely loved wearing them!

31DC2013 : Gold Iron Ore Textured (Half Moon) Vintage Manicure

For day 18 of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge 2013 I bring you a textured vintage, half moon manicure. I really enjoy vintage inspired manicures and I tend to do a matte versus sheen with my half moon. This time my inspiration was gold in iron ore so I choice to mix sheen and texture. I then added a gradient for a little something extra. I hope you like it.

31DC2013 : Polka Dots Meet butter LONDON Rainbow Gradient

Day 11 of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge 2013 is here with polka dot nails. I decided to apply polka dots to my butter LONDON rainbow gradient nails from yesterday, and I really like how they turned out.

31DC2013 : Windestine Asbestos & Carbon Copy (in B&W)

Day 7 of Chalkboard Nails 31 Day Challenge 2013 is here on day 8, because I mixed them up when reading them, heh. Today's challenge is B&W nails, and when I read this I knew right off the bat I wanted to utilize Windestine Asbestos and Carbon Copy to make a static TV look.
