FingerFood's Theme Buffet - Delicious (White Jazzies/Snowies)

 Hi guys, and welcome to another edition of FingerFood's Theme Buffet.  The prompt for today is Delicious, and I decided to go retro and do white Jazzie's :D  They're called all sorts of names though: snowies, jazzies jazzles, disco discs, but essentially, they're a little disc of chocolate with colourful ball sprinkles on top.......

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go - Day 28 - Art Nouveau

Hi guys, and welcome to the final day of the NAGG challenge.  The prompt for today is Art Nouveau - something I know literally nothing about!  According to Wikipedia, it is "an international philosophy and style of art, architecture and applied art—especially the decorative arts—that was most popular during 1890–1910.  A reaction to academic art of the 19th century, it was inspired by natural forms and structures, not only in flowers and plants, but also in curved lines. Architects tried to harmonize with the natural environment."

My first attempt at Stamping Decals

 Hi guys, today I have some nail art to show you using a new technique for me.  I had a go at doing stamping decals last week, and while this is far from perfect I was still pretty happy with how it turned out.  It looked amazing from a normal distance, but as always, macro photos show every tiny flaw that isn't really visible in real life.

#33DC - Day 30 - the same pattern in different colours

 Hi guys!  I'm back today for Day 30 of the #33DC and the prompt for today is: the same pattern in different colours.  I decided to go with a vertical pastel rainbow gradient, and some silver stamping.  I love how subtle this turned out, even though I used 6 different base colours!

#33DC - Day 22 - 3 colour gradient + pattern.

Hi guys, I'm back with Day 22 of the #33DC and the prompt for today is: 3 colour gradient + pattern. This is actually my second mani for this prompt.  My original idea ended up being way too summery : D  I don't mind though, in fact I'm actually quite pleased, I love the way these 3 colours work together so I guess all is well that ends well.

A break from the norm.


 Hi all, hope you're having a great weekend so far.  Today I have a mani for you that involves a lot of glitter, and not a stamp in sight!  Don't worry, I have not taken leave of my senses.  I just wanted to post something a bit different today.  I will be back tomorrow though, with a massive post about basic stamping.  I don't really want to call it a tutorial, as I'm not an expert, but really, it kind of is.  Hopefully some of you who are not familiar with stamping will find it useful.  There's definitely a few things I've picked up that I wish I had known when I started!
