Pink Hearts - Valentine's Design

Jan/29/2011
The base colour for this was "Tickled Pink" by Wet n' Wild after my attempts to make my own colour failed in a gloppy, forever to dry mess. On top of that a paler pink paint was used to make stripes, and finally some simple hearts.
On a side note, I wanted to attempt to film the making of this but completely forgot when I actually went to make them... Who knows I might venture into video-making one day, but for now I don't have the memory power for it.
As you can see, I managed to dent my index finger before it completely dried... just my luck -_-'

Hearts and Sparkle - Valentine's Day

Jan/21/2012
Here's a simple design for Valentine's Day. Very easy hearts on a red base, you don't need any special brushes for these hearts, its just a matter of learning to flick the nail polish wand in certain directions. It will take a bit of practise to get them right, but it's fast and easy once you get the hang of it.

So for this the base colour is "Hey Sailor" by China Glaze, the hearts were done using "Red Carpet" by Sally Hansen, and the top sparkles were "Golden Enchantment" by China Glaze.

White Rose

Sept/08/2010 to Sept/15/2010
"Purple Panic (Neon)" by China Glaze, with a sculpted white rose done using acrylic L&P.

China Plates



More stamping, used the BM-221 plate because it's just so damn pretty. But I am a sucker for florals, as for the title, this combination just reminds me of those gorgeous fine china plates I see in my Nanni Amma's dish cupboard.

Colours Used:

"04 White" by Klean Colour
"948 First Mate" by China Glaze
