Color Club's Blue Heaven

Hello Ladies,
I am sure many of you have already gotten your hands on the new Color Club Halo Hues collection. I am in Canada so I needed to wait the extra time for 8ty8 to get them in stock. When I first made my order only four of them were in stock. On Monday they told me my price for shipping but before confirming my purchase I went online to check and they were ALL in.. I hurried to contact the representative who contacted me to Please cancel my order right away for a new order of Five of the six polishes that I really really wanted.. Within a few mins my confirmation email came in confirming my order of the BN Halo Hues collection... YEY!!! Now if they would only hurry up and get here.. I was not happy that they only shipped out my order on Thursday which was 3 business days later after payment was confirmed.. BUT I did get my shipment the next week so technically shipping was pretty quick.. So I am giving them a pass for shipping 3 days later.. lol..
I ended up getting my package from Models Own too that day.. Mon and Tue last week was awesome but nothing since Tues.. I am not having a good week.. ha ha ha.. I am so not a patient person so when I order something I have a hard time to force myself to forget or understand that it takes time to reach me. I really literally am looking in my mail box the next day after I order something even if it is coming from US or England or China.. I know it can't possibly be there already but I still check and see.. I know, I need counselling in the worst possible way. Or at least that is what my hubby and children keep telling me. ha ha ha
Ok, here are my swatches.. I first tried on Blue Heaven cuz it was just so pretty. All bottles truly have a wonderful holographic hue to them.

I really LOVE how these look. I hope you are enjoying your own bottles of these beauties.. I will be sharing the other five colors soon! Thanks for dropping by!
Take Care of you!

MASH Image Plates 26-50 *Review*

Hello Ladies,
I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!! I have no plans this weekend except to do my nails. I guess that is pretty much the same thing that I do during the week. LOL.
As you have seen previously MASH has come up with their second set of image plates. This 25 piece set is really turning out to be a good quality set.
MASH Image Plates 26-50 have so many design options for all kinds of occasions. The only bad thing about these plates for me, is trying to decide which images to use!! I was not able to get the first set from MASH but when this second set came along and I was able to do a full review I was so excited. MASH plate images are really easy to work with, they are compatible with all of my stampers, which is great. I have had issues with other brands not working with all my stampers. That can be a problem if you only have one type of stamper on hand but I have tried my four stampers with success. 
I wanted to use some of the single images from MASH Image plates 26-50 and I really loved the Zodiac images. I chose to use all of the Zodiac signs and a couple extra that I just thought kind of fit with a mystical theme. The gradient base was finished two days ago so there is a little wear on my nails but I think they really turned out nice.

Thank you for taking the time to stop in!
Take Care of You ^_^

MASH Image Plates 26-50 Review

Hello Ladies,


I hope you all are doing wonderful!! 


I showed you all last week my wonderful new set of Mash Plates. I was in touch with Dan and he sent me these awesome new plates to try out so I could share with you all how great these plates are. I don't normally do product reviews as I am not able to guarantee that I will actually use the products, nail art items don't always like me. Stamping however is right up my alley. MASH Image Plates have not disappointed me. These plates are so good in quality that I must say they are now my new fav. I am always comparing my plates to a popular name brand that we all know but most aren't able to provide the same quality. 


MASH has really made stamping an enjoyable experience for me. Each plate has the protective backing and soft edges so I did not cut myself. Each image that I have tried of my new 25 piece set is stamping perfectly. Each plate has many wonderful new images not seen in other sets. MASH Image Plates 26-50are being sold right now for $12.99 (plus delivery depending on your area). These plates measure 1.8"(5.5cm in diameter) that fit beautifully in my card holder for easy storage in my stamping binder. 


I have been so excited to take tons of pics with my new camera but I can't seem to get good images of the plate itself with this camera. It really doesn't do the wonderful images any justice. You are able to see each plate on their site. I have linked their address above or here. I am going to be taking a pic of the plate that I did use for my mani to show that image. I think it turned out nice.


I got my new bottle of Floam in the mail too so I was excited to use it with my new Mash plates.

MASH-37

I am very impressed with the MASH Plates. They are easy to work with, give clear images and work with my normal stamper and polishes. I would recommend this new set of plates. 


Thank you for dropping by!!
Take Care of You!!

How was everyone's week? I hope you all had a wonderful week. My son turned 13 today. I feel old!! I am also sad that he is growing up and doesn't seem to need me except for food, cleaning and money.. LOL.. I know they normally come back at a later age but I can see many a nights with my sitting here worried out of my mind wondering what he is doing... 
I loved this mani, I am sad for such a crappy pic but wanted to share with you..

Thanks for stopping by!

Take Care Of YOU!

Blue Fail ^_^

Hello Ladies,
I am trying out some new plates so that is why I am posting a little more
than normal. I loved how this mani looked in my mind but it too didn't work
out as pretty, I also had shaky issues. I still wanted to share. This is a blog
about nail art good or bad.

Thank you for taking the time to drop by!

Take Care and Pamper Yourself!

Blue Tuesday

Hello Ladies,

I hope you are all having a wonderful day!

I did my nails last night and I wanted to share with you.

I used a few different plates to get the different stars or music

notes. I was pleased with the outcome. I will be doing

more gradients in the near future. It allows me to

have multiple colors on my fingers. I love it!

I hope you like it too.



Thanks for coming to me!

Take Care!

XL K IMAGE PLATE

Hello ladies,

Hope you are all having a nice day!!

Take Care!

RED ANGEL FAIL

Hello Ladies,

I was so happy to try these out but so far I seem to be

having bad luck. I used RA-105 plate and sponged a few CC blues.

I was seeing something else in my mind. I just

wanted to share how it turned out.

Thank you for stopping in to see me.

Take Care!!

Nicky

PS. I am hoping to get a new camera for Christmas. We always

do a good Christmas for the kids and then do our gifts

after the holidays. We are very limited so our number one

priority is always the boys. I am hoping maybe after

holiday there is good deals so I can get a camera.

My last one was a flop. We bought it at a pawn shop,

but it quit working last summer. This time I will just

get a brand new one so I don't have the same problem.LOL

Cesarsshop It is the special edition Charming Nails Q1 plate.

*****Friday KOTD******

Hello Ladies,

I hope you all had a good week and I wish you an even better weekend!!

I have to say sorry to start off this post. My camera still won't transfer

any pics I am taking so I am back to using cell phones. I know

it sucks but I just hate not sharing my nails. LOL.

I hope you will continue to be patient and not get frustrated with

my small, blurry, and basically crappy pics. LOL.

I used a friends plates again and LOVE, LOVE them.

For my base I used four colors, kind of a gradient type. I just

used a makeup sponge to dab all over with the three colors.

I finally got Barracuda from  SH which I had to use right

away, I dabbed with Orly Gumdrop, Zoya Robyn and

a splash of purple with Funky Fingers Chesire

and I stamped with Konad black.

I hope you can see it and I hope you enjoy it as much as

I enjoyed making it!!

Thank you for taking time to come see me and I hope to see

you again ^_^

*****HELLO KITTY MANI****

Hello Ladies,

I hope you are all having a wonderful week so far!!

I have just got back from school supply shopping. NOT FUN!!

Oh well. we are pretty much ready just need a few more

lunch food. My 8year old will not eat anything other than:

Fries, cheese, yogurt, chips, smiley face fries, fish sticks,

chocolate chip muffins. I kid you not. I am not exaggerating.

We have thought well he'll get better when he is older, but

man, he is worse I think. It sucks, big time.

If we force him to eat, he pukes, or he gags to the point of us

just giving up and saying fine.

I thought as he got older he'd be easier to reason with but

apparently not.

On to my pretty mani. I got a couple new plates from

Beautifulscratchers.

I used Sephora Natural Environ-Mint, It's Hippo to be Square.

I used Konad special black for stamping.

I hope you think it is just as cute as I do.

Thank you for coming to see me. I hope to see you again!

Have a safe and happy weekend!!

Nicky

****KOTD*****FRIDAY*****

Hello Ladies,

R U all having a great Friday??? I did my nails with my

BM Gingerbread Man plate. I wanted to share with you all.

I used OPI Gargantuan Green Grape alternated with

Born Pretty's Dearlee polish 007(Baby Blue).

Hope you like it!!

Thank you for taking the time to come see me, I hope

to see you again soon!!!

Have an awesome weekend!!!

Nicky

*****KOTD*****FROGGY******

Happy Thursday!!

Well, it's not really a happy one but it is a alright one.LOL...

We were supposed to go to Magic Mountain today, but it isn't turning

out to be a warm enough day. Instead we are going to an indoor water

park type place. I feel bad for my 8 year old, he's never been yet.

I am hoping very hard that next week may be one of the last

hot, humid, crappy days of summer so we can go before school

starts but I told him not to expect it so he won't be sad if we can't

get there this year. But, you mom's out there know that they

are still sad when they can't get to go.....

I got my #61 in the mail yesterday and chose to do a

water critter mani for the occasion. I just realized that my froggies are

upsidown when I took the pic. 

I used my new nfu-oh 61 but I can't ever get the best kind of pic

with this crappy cell phone..

Thank you for coming by!! I hope you will drop in again ^_^
