Does it look like fireworks, candy sprinkles or African printed clothes? :D

Love to create new nail art design using my new image plate.. But it doesn't fit in accordance with what I have in mind... Hmmm... I'm having problem doing C-curve design on my right hand.. Hehehe .. I think this design is suited for summer because it is very colorful.. but summer is just a few months from now... lol! It looks like candy
sprinkles! What do you think? Do you like it..? I hope you do.. ☻Have a happy and colorful 2011 everyone! God bless

China Glaze "happy go lucky"
Etude House " gr605"

Vintage Flower NOTD + Color It Red NailArt Contest

Hi all! It's a wonderful sunny Saturday! We woke up early this morning, went over to my parents' house, then just drove around all morning... I was inspired by the nice view, I felt relaxed and comfortable. Here's the mani I made, vintage flower, I love the color of this, usually I'm into abstract design, but now I'm inlove with this vintage flower I made. I also noticed that my nails grew in length faster, it's only been a month since I cut it down.. Anyway, hope you like my NOTD! Have a great weekend! God Bless!





And here's my entry for Rina Alcantara "COLOR IT RED" nail art contest you can choose 3 of your fav entry.. You can also vote for me if you like.. thanks so much in advance..

I enjoyed doing my entry, eventhough it took a lot of time to make, I got my idea from traditional chinese dress... while I was browsing the net, I stumbled upon a picture of early chinese community which gave me that certain idea.. The chinese character in the middle of my nail means "happiness"..
My second entry is "Chameleon Ring" inspired design..
Hope you like them!

I will try some nail tip design again definitely... :)

bobbie "vodka on ice" for the base
Allue "Black night out" for the tip
And Flat square-gold

PHD Vampire Challenge!

Hi all! I would say my favorite day for nails is Monday and Saturday, Why? Monday, because polishhoarderdisorder will post the theme for her weekly challenge, and saturday, the day she posts the entries. I'm very happy that I was able to participate again on her vampire challenge...thanks polishhoarderdisorder, it's a good thing that you came up with the idea of holding a weekly challenge for nail art enthusiasts...

In my design,
I applied,konad "solid white" for the base, and I used allue black night out for the tip to make an illusion. The idea is to make it look like the teeth of a vampire, then I put a black radiance dark red lipstick on the top of my finger to make it look like vampire lips... I used N.Y.C lip liner to make the outline of the lip and make it more defined.. I named it "Bite Of The Vampire"


What you need:
konad solid white
allue black night out
nyc lipliner
black radiance lipstick

and a bonus Vampire Candle!

Hope you like them! God Bless you all!
