Pink Wednesday - Color Club Hot Like Lava

First things first, just before I sat down to write this I realized that I am sitting at 105 followers. You know what that means! So a big thanks to all my followers and keep an eye out for a 100+ follower giveaway in the near future. Now on to the my mani.

Being as this is my first Pink Wednesday post, I decided to not only use one of my favorite pinks, Color Club Hot Like Lava, which is a foil to boot, but also to konad some dragons in there too (index and ring). I decided to use the dragon image from my XL Special Plate K and used Konad Special polish in black. Then I dabbed some of Sinful Colors Pinky Glitter on the tips of my pinkies, middles, and thumbs just for the heck of it.

Some one else kept saying we were painting our nails pink today, so here is the baby's mani. I used my semi-unnamed pink creme franken (older two kids want to call it Baby Barbie because it's a cross between Barbie pink and baby pink) and Sinful Color Pinky Glitter.

Stone Cold Snowflakes

I was starting to feel left out for not doing a snowflake mani, I was going to save mine until after Christmas but I was getting kind of tired of red and green so figured it was time. For the mani I used Orly Stone Cold, which I think is my new favorite dark blue. It's both bright and dark at the same time! I think it's in part to the small flakies (large shimmer?) that makes this polish pop. I then proceeded to stamp with XL Special Holiday plate K, m59, and BM-14. I used China Glaze Adore, China Glaze Devotion, and Konad Special Polish in white for my snowflakes. Excuse the lack of clean up as I was racing the sun to take pictures...I have decided I just need to cave and build a light box. LOL!

I then decided to sponge some iridescent glitter on top. I used an unnamed pink to purple to blue giltter from Shades of the Season and then Sinful Colors Smoking Hot. I still haven't decided whether this was a good idea or not, I think I liked it better before the glitter. What do you think?

Yesterday's Christmas mani + konad

I wasn't ready to give up my mani from yesterday (Orly Meet Me Under the Mistletoe & Orly Rock-It) with all of it's sparkly goodness so I decided to add some Christmas konad stamps to it. I used konad special white stamping polish and plates m12, XL Special Holiday K, and BM222. It didn't come out quite as good as I hoped so I won't be keeping it past tomorrow.

Happy Halloween!!

Thought I'd better throw my Halloween mani on here before the day is over. I used Wet n Wild's Ink Well (black), Color Club's Wham! Pow! (neon orange), Fantasy Maker's Creepy Pumpkin (orange glitter jelly), China Glaze's Fairy Dust, and Konad special polish in black and white, stamp plates BM-211, BM-224, and XL plate K- special design.

Had so much fun with these!!

Blurry close-up to show the awesome holo-sparkle of the coat of Fairy Dust.

I did two coats of Ink Well and two coats of Wham! Pow! followed by one coat of Seche Vite, then stamped, then one coated the orange with Creeping Pumpkin. When dry I hit all fingers with Fairy Dust for that uber blingtasticness and then Seche Vite-d so I could head to be as it was around 2 am yesterday morning when I did these. Oh and thumb is like the pinkie but with 2 different types of skulls, just in case anyone was wondering.

Happy Halloween! Much love, The Dragon Lady
