This week for Twinsie Tuesday we’re doing monochrome. I’ve done a monochrome prompt before, and went with a black and white theme, even though – strictly speaking – monochrome in general just means using one colour, and shades of it. I’ve gone with that meaning this time and have created some tone on tone magenta […] Read more
Today I have some ladybird nails for the animals theme of the 40 Great Nail Art Ideas group. Now, we have insects coming up in July as a prompt, so perhaps I should have saved these for that. But, I’ve left it to the last minute as ever – well, over the last minute; these […] Read more
For the tulips prompt for Twinsie Tuesday this week, I have some stamped tulips. The base is three coats of SpaRitual Gentle, which is a lovely soft creamy colour and a great base colour for nail art. I stamped on top of that with MoYou London Pro XL 14. I’ve used this image before, but […] Read more
The Twinsie Tuesday prompt this week is gradient stamping, so I have tribal gradient stamping manicure. It’s a summery, festival kind of look with a hot gradient, stamped with an image from CICI&SISI Ethnic Elements (plate 33). My gradient is inspired by the colours in the Sky logo. I keep seeing it on TV and […] Read more
For the 40 Great Nail Art Ideas group, the theme is children’s TV. I’m honouring Great Uncle Bulgaria from The Wombles with these green, blue and white tartan nails. Orinoco was my favourite Womble really, but he just wears a big, floppy hat and a red scarf. Great Uncle Bulgaria, on the other hand, has […] Read more
These violet tweed nails are for the 40 Great Nail Art Ideas group. The theme is violet, and my personal prompt is houndstooth or tweed or plaid. There has been some discussion in our Facebook group about what shade of purple violet actually is. For myself, to be sure I was getting the right colour, […] Read more
Birds is the theme for the Twinsie Tuesday prompt today. I’ve put some birds in a tree, after I saw this manicure by Wacky Lacki where she used the same Fake Tattoos of birds that I was planning to use. For the background, there was nothing better to start off with than Barry M Sky […] Read more
I’m on time for Twinsie Tuesday this week, for the first time in a while! The prompt is inspired by jewellery. My silver swirls are inspired by some silver and abalone jewellery I saw. I didn’t want to faithfully recreate it; I just wanted to take a few aspects from it to create my manicure. […] Read more
The Twinsie Tuesday prompt for this week (I’m late again – sorry to the other ladies) is your favourite colour. My favourite colour is blue, so I’ve created some metallic blue wavy lines stamped nails. The blue is Ciaté Birthday Blue. It is gorgeous and I adore it. It is perfect. It has such a […] Read more
I am way behind on posting at the moment. So this is for last Friday’s 40 Great Nail Art Ideas group where the theme was food. I’m not sure if these citrus nails are oranges or lemons. They’re lemon coloured, but stamped over orange. So they could be either. The base is Barry M Mango […] Read more
