Pink and Silver Sponge Gradient Animal Print Konad Nail Art Stamping Design - Fun Nail Art, Gradient Nails, Pink and Silver Nails, Zebra Leopard Gradient Nail Art

Image
Hey everyone, it's been awhile since I did a post, been a little busy, hope all is well with everyone. For this design I did a gradient effect by first patting on a white polish base with an eyeshadow sponge applicator. (The sponge applicator really helps to create a nice gradient effect; it's an easy way to fade colors into one another to create an almost airbrushed look. A makeup sponge could also be used.) I then patted on silver polish diagonally across the nail with the sponge & then patted on pink polish diagonally, going the opposite direction as the silver so that the silver & pink criss-cross each other right at the center of the nail. (It's ok if some of the white base shows, it adds to the effect.) Then I took a very light glittery silver shade & patted a very small amount right in the center of the nail where the silver & pink polishes meet to create a more blended & highlighted effect. Then I painted on a clear glitter polish, I find...

Simple Periwinkle Konad Nail Art Stamping Design - Periwinkle Kotd, Periwinkle Konadicure, Periwinkle Nails

Image
Hey guys, this is just a simple konadicure I did awhile back using plate M73. This is a full nail pattern but didn't quite fit my nails properly so instead of stamping on the full pattern in one stamp I stamped half the pattern on one side of my nail & then stamped on the other half of the design on the other half of my nail.

For Audrey Konad Nail Art Design

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of posts but still haven't got a new camera yet so I pulled this design from my nail archives! I've already posted some other kotd's featuring this pattern cause I really like it alot, plus at the time I did this I didn't own that many plates, lol. My collection has grown alot since then & hopefully I will be able to share my newer designs once this camera situation gets straightened out. I'm so indecisive, still not sure which camera to get! Ugh. Anyways, have a fantastic week! : ) M64 - China Glaze For Audrey, Konad White Special *TIP ALERT: Designs like this are pretty simple for the most part because they are full nail patterns but you may find that you have to double stamp because the pattern doesn't always cover your entire nail & that doesn't always go over too well. Other times the pattern may not have transferred entirely to your nail leaving unsightly chunks missing. Well I frequently stam...

2011 Bundle Monster Plate Set Review & Nail Art Design

Image
Hey guys! So I received the new Bundle Monster plate set a couple weeks ago, I meant to post this sooner but as I've mentioned in previous posts, my digital camera broke so that has slowed things down for me. Hopefully I will get one soon & get back on track. Anyways, I got my new plate set which I had won in a Bundle Monster nail art contest & I really like them. I now own both the old set & the new set and it's great to see that Bundle Monster has made some improvements to their new plate set! Here are some of the new features: * These plates have all new image patterns.  * The plate edges are smoother, much less sharp than the old set. * The plates still have a protective film that you must remove before your first use, but the film is blue so it's easy to see unlike the old set's transparant film. Also I found it easier to remove. * The new plates now have a Bundle Monster backing. * The plates consist mostly of full na...

Hey guys, sorry for the lack in posts but my digital camera broke and I still haven't gotten a new one! I'm having trouble finding one I love as much as my last one so I haven't been able to capture my latest nail creations. I pulled this design from my archives or as I like to say my nail "art-chives", lol. I thought this flowery design would be a nice appropriate look to post in celebration of this upcoming Mother's Day! I used bundle monster plate BM16 & then I added some rhinestones & glitter polish. The glitter doesn't really pick up in the pictures but it's there, lol. Hope you like! ...Btw, if anyone has any good suggestions on digital cameras that work well with capturing detailed nail art, I would love to hear them! I think I'm gonna stick with Sony because that is what my last camera was but still haven't decided on a model yet & would love to get some feedback, thanks! God Bless! And sticking with the theme of this post ...

Happy Easter KOTD

Image
This is just a quick post to wish you all a Happy Easter & to share with you my Easter themed KOTD! The design didn't come out exactly how I wanted, this was my first time using Konad Special Polish in Pastel Purple & the color did not come out as vivid as I would have liked. Perhaps it works better on darker shades, but over the pastel yellow base I used it is very faint. Also, my digital camera broke, ugh, so I had to borrow another camera & I don't really like how the pics came out. Hopefully I'll be able to get a new camera soon! Anyways, I hope you & your family have a safe, happy & healthy Easter! God Bless! : ) M65 & M82 - Sinful Colors Unicorn (Base) Stamp Colors: Konad Pastel Purple Special Polish, BSN Matte Sky

Hey guys! As you may already know, I had entered a contest that Bundle Monster was having to win a brand new set of Bundle Monster plates! Click here to see my entry! There were 159 entries & 25 winners (well actually 26 because there was a tie) & I'm so happy because I am one of the winners! I want to thank everyone who voted for me & for all your wonderful comments! The plates should be on there way & I can't wait to get them! Also, this new plate set just became available for purchase on amazon lastnight! I am not affiliated with bundlemonster, but just wanted to share the news in case any of you were interested in getting them! According to bundlemonster they have made some improvements to their new plates such as minimizing the sharpness of the edges & making larger full nail & tip images. Can't wait to see for myself! There are 25 brand new plates in this set with 6 images per plate, mostly full nail & tip designs. He...
