This is really super not my style...

This is really super not my style, but I try with holidays sometimes because my stamping plates often have holiday images and when else am I going to use them?  😂

The candy hearts were a stamping plate image and usually they would be all one color, but I used the image several times with several different polishes, top-coated them while they were on my stamper, then painstakingly cut them apart and applied them to my nails.  Totally kicking myself after the fact for not using a pink, but it's too late now.  😕

I really need to make a collage of my Valentine's Day nail photos.

I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to do Valentine's nails...

I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to do Valentine's nails to go with this ring, but I didn't.  Life isn't working out like that right now.  Maybe next year.

Might share a few nail pics from when I had time in my life.  😂  I used to look festive... on my nails - at least.  😛

The other polish ring I made the other day.

3:19 pm:  The other polish ring I made the other day.  I used my favorite color - Essie Demure Vixen.  If no one else likes this ring I might keep it for myself.  😜


3:21 pm:  These are some of my larger (18mm) earrings.  Yes, I had Halloween on the brain.  😂😂😂

These change from blue to purple to almost pink - depending on the light. I love how they turned out.

Neon and black. Had to do at least one!


Ready for Halloween. If no one wants these now, I'm sure they'll sell at OxfordFest in October. 😃

Weird color combo that I couldn't resist.

I did a ring with the brown crackle and gold, and a lot of people seemed intrigued by it. So I thought I'd make some earrings to match.


3:25 pm:  Smaller earrings (12mm) - and now I have studs!  I also have some more paisley in the works.  😃


This totally has flakies in it, but they aren't showing in the photograph. Really pretty in person, though. 🙂

This is the neutral color...

This is the neutral color I was complimented on so long ago.  It was really hard to find something that worked with my skin tone and I actually think that Shauna gave me this.  I don't think I even picked it out.  😂  So she did a great job!

I've wanted to do the glitter gradient tips for SO long.  Finally, here they are.  And a little heart because I don't know when to stop.  😂

Trying to get in the mood...

Trying to get in the mood for Valentine's Day.  I don't really celebrate any holidays.  Not willingly, anyway.  😂  But it's always fun to challenge myself to come up with something that would go with them.  😃

Pardon all the paper cuts on my cuticles.  I've been doing some hard core office work this week.

My red polish that I stamped over the pink didn't show up so great... so I took a red glitter and a tiny paintbrush and painted over it.  I was pleasantly surprised with how well I stayed "inside the lines" - so to speak.  😃

Lacey nails!

Lacey nails!  I wanted to post this before I jacked them up.  I'm about to go and wash my lizards.  Separately, of course.  🙂

Sorry for this crappy photo

Sorry for this crappy photo, but I'm not going out in the rain just to get a photo without a wonky cast (Damn you, fluorescent lighting!) These nails are pink and red. Just basic, ugly pink and red. Nothing special. 😂

I did these last night. I think they turned out nice, but Valentine's is not a holiday I celebrate, (nor do I like these colors), so I might have to take them off today and do something I can live with. Blegh.

This was my first foray into layering stamps. I like it!

These images were from two of my new smaller plates.  I wish I'd used a warmer pink and that my shimmer behind the swirls was showing up.  Maybe out in the sun it will.  I still think they are cute, though.  This was my first foray into layering stamps.  I like it!  😃
