Lisa Frank Inspired Nails

As a kid I loved anything Lisa Frank, I had a million folders, Trapper Keepers, stickers etc. I was obsessed!!  I love the bright colorful designs she did (and still does).  It is great inspiration for a fun colorful mani.

I started with a base of Orly Au Champagne, the did a gradient with Color Club Electro Candy, Pure Energy, Ultra Violet, and What A Shock!  I then stamped over it with the Express Manicure kit using the star image, I used Wet N Wild Black Creme.  Then topped it off with a glitter top coat, that is honestly a mixture of a bunch of glitters that looked better mixed together than on their own.  I am not the best stamper in the world and this is my first full manicure that I have attempted to stamp.

I like the end result, just wished I was better at stamping haha!!  Also neon's really do drive me nuts to try and photograph, this is way more vibrant in real life.

Girly Nails

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, my computer has been acting up on me and all of my pictures are saved on it!  I decided to show you a few girly and probably over the top manis that I have done.


This first one were the nails for my birthday!  I used China Glaze Fuchsia Fanatic on all the nails, then added New York Colors Love Letters over the top and for the accent nails I added Wet N Wild Sparked and Party of Five Glitters.  I loved the look of Fuchsia Fanatic with Love Letters over it, it was soooo pretty!

For this one I used China Glaze Gothic Lolita and Electric Beat and on the thumb I have OPI Simmer and Shimmer.  I love dotted mani's I think they are so cute and they can be toned down by doing tone on tone dots.

This last one was a manicure I did around Valentines Day, it is a bit over the top but I loved it.  I used OPI Pink Friday on all of the nails, then for the index and ring fingers I used China Glaze Crackle in Broken Hearted (haha fitting for V-Day no??), the heart on the middle finger is China Glaze Fuchsia Fanatic and the thumb and pinky have China Glaze Techno.



I am going to try and get the sponged gradient tutorial up tomorrow if I find the time, but if not I promise it will be soon!
