SHORT NAILS MANI

Hello Ladies,

I hope you are having a great weekend so far!! I had to cut my nails in half last night and I actually cried.. lol.. Two of my nails had been really bothering me for a few weeks now but I could not figure out why.. I assumed all the remover from doing my nails two to four times in one day.. I finally realized yesterday that my nails were bending inwards so they were cutting my finger tips!! They were squeezing them to the point of cutting the tips of my fingers so I was loosing circulation. I had to chop off right to the skin of three fingers as a third one was also turning inward. When I had them all cut off within one hour the skin was a normal color and the tips were a normal size again.. I have no clue how on earth my nails were squeezing my fingers to the point of cutting but I will be more careful from now on... 

Here is my new length. I hate it, I am so used to having longer nails I feel so naked without them...lol.. 

I hope that my nails will grow quickly to the normal size. I haven't had nails this short in over 8 years, basically since my youngest was in diapers..lol... 

I just wanted to do a mani to see how it looked with stamping.. It looks different to me but some on facebook didn't even notice.. I have posted two one before and one after to show immediately the difference.. 

Thank you for dropping by!!

Take Care!!

Hello Ladies,

I used CG White Out, Quirius News of the Beloved, Nubar Oh Baby Pink, Silver dots, Stamped with Konad M57 plate and black polish too.

Thank you for dropping by.

Black and White KOTD

Hello ladies,

I hope you all had a great weekend!

I did my nails this morning. I loved how it turned out.

I always love any black and white actually. I find it is clean

and crisp so it always looks fancy too.

I used CG White out for base and WNW Black Cream for stamping

the XL D plate. I apologize for my yucky cuticles. I have

been moisturizing like ten times a day but the

broken skin is just taking forever to go away.

The pain of nail polish remover on broken skin is just

a pain that I can't seem to get used to.

I did my best to clean up but I end up just making it

bleed more so I can't get them as clean as I would like.



Take Care!

Zebra KOTD

Hello Ladies,

Hope you all had a great week and nicer weekend!

I did my nails a few times this week and took pics with

my new camera. I seem to now be lacking in the

creativity department so I am having a hard time

with coming up with ideas. The ones I am doing aren't

turning out as I hoped they would. I am trying to
post my nail journey so that includes fails.

First one is today's mani. I used Orly Fancy Fuscia,

CG White Out and stamped using Konad black.

I hope you like this one. I did it before as a

french mani but now wanted a full nail.

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

Have a wonderful night!

Take Care!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR***KOTD***

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

Hello Ladies,

I am posting my last mani till after Christmas time. I just wanted

to wish you all a safe and happy holiday.

I saw this here I loved how it looked.

I could not wait to try it myself. I used all

shiny polishes for stamping and a white base to see it.

I hope you enjoy it too! I can't wait till after the holidays to

have much better pics with my new camera. I need to wait

till the sales start but it is still only one week away.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

HAPPY NEW YEARS

TAKE CARE!

HOLIDAY MANI ^_^

Happy Holidays!!

I did this mani last night with my new XL K image plate.

I can't seem to get it clearer than this. The shiny parts are

making it very hard to see.

I used OPI Alpine Snow, CG Chromes for stamping.

Thank you for coming to see me!

I hope to see you soon!

Take Care!

CHRISTMAS TYPE KOTD

Hello Ladies,

I just could not stand the look of the last mani.

I love the holiday designs on some of the plates I have here.

I am still waiting for a few new ones from a couple of weeks ago.

It is supposed to have more holiday stuff on them.

I used white base and CG chrome ones to stamp.

The horse is kind of holiday ish. LOL.

I hope you enjoy this one better!

Take Care ^_^

FRIDAY KOTD ^_^

Hello Ladies,

I am hoping you are all happy it's Friday!!

I also hope you are all having a great day and for those of you

who aren't I am glad your day is almost done ^_^

I had found a mani many many months ago and fell in love.

I don't know where I found it, I have over 900 blogs in my Google Reader

so for me to see a design and try it out months ago is not unusual.

I would however really appreciate it if you know who's design this was,

Please let me know so I can give her the credit.

I hope you think it is pretty too!!!

Talk with you soon.

Take Care!!!

Please do not look too closely at my clean up job. I was careful on one

side and then wanted to show the other but forgot to clean it better.LOL

HALLOWEEN KOTD

Hello Ladies,

I hope you all had an awesome weekend!!

Mine was creative I guess. I did my nails like four times.

My son had his cell phone with him so I could not share

all my designs. I took some last night to share.

I used BM plates. They do have awesome plates for

Halloween. I used OPI Alpine Snow, Konad Black for stamping.

I hope you enjoy. I wish you all a great week!!

Take Care!!

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

Hey Ladies,

I hope you all had a wonderful week!!

I seen a mani a while ago, I can't remember where or who's idea

it is. I want to please invite you to let me know who

had a similar mani like mine.

Hers was a different color on each nail and it was a full nail

design. I want to let her know, "Great Job!!"

I used CC Yum Gum, OPI Alpine Snow stamped with Konad Black. M57?

I love the look, I think next time I need to do the french part a little higher.

Next week I am getting a Kindle. I am very excited!!

Do you have one and what do you think of yours??

I just really want to know if it is better than my local one

of the Kodo reader???

I am ordering online from Amazon cuz I am in Can. So,

I just wondered if it is worth it or if it's the same thing.

The pricing is the exact same so......

I hope to hear from you, Thank you for taking the time to

come see me. I wish you all an awesome weekend!!

Nicky



*** BLACK AND WHITE** KOTD****

Hello Ladies,

I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend??

I wanted to share with you my new nails.

I have been very lazy with my nails that I have only been

doing them maybe once or twice week.

I love any designs that are black and white so I loved this one!!

I hope you all like it too!!!



KOTD

I just wanted to share what I am currently wearing.

I love how this looks, it's so cute.

I know my fingers are not shaped right, so please don't mind them.

I just made it bigger so you can see the soccer balls clearly.

I used a friend of mines plates, they are nice.

Thanks for coming by. Have a great day!! ^_^

Can't help myself!!!

Hello Ladies,

I know I said no more posts with a cell phone

camera, but I loved this one too much to

keep to myself. I used the new BM 222 and the

flower was from P30. I don't remember seeing

this design used yet so I tried it.I think black

and white looks awesome, I find the bottom

to be too bare with french tips so I always

find a little something extra.

Hope you like it, Have an awesome weekend!

I will see you ladies next Wed!

Hopefully with a new Macro Camera

for crisp,clear and bigger pics.

Thanks for dropping in.
