St. Paddy's nails

I have completely fallen behind and have a backlog of photos that I will hopefully be able to show you once I figure out how to schedule posts from my phone .

These are my St. Patrick Day themes nails. I am not very skilled at nail art but I loved these!

Unfortunately I only took 1 picture in poor lighting. I can still tell you what I did though. I did a base of Nicole by OPI's "It's all about the Glam" on all nails but my ring fingers. On my pointer finger I drew a cauldron in black. For the gold I used Milani's Jewel FX "Gold", and was very impressed with how it looked. For my ring fingers I did a base of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Going Green". I then did a stripe of black as a belt and used a gold for the buckle.every

My first attempt at clouds

Even though I suck at posting here doesn't mean I suck at keeping up with reading other's blogs.  I think everyone has picked up on this new cloud mani trend. As it is now dieing out I finally got around to doing it. I am such a slacker!

I learned a lot about my abilities and the abilities of my polished. The white I used needs more that one coat to be solid enough for me. I found it works better at the top part of the cloud. I also learned that I need to work on my patience and wait much longer on dry times for this mani since I am stacking colors.

Unfortunately I just got the picture of my thumb before I got distracted, did something around the house and snuffed the Crap out of all my nails. I was almost in tears. Well I guess I live and learn. The colors I used were Wet n Wild "How I Met Your Magenta" , then China Glaze "Champagne Bubbles", and the white I used was Buckle by OPI "It's All About the Glam"

This is also my first time posting from my phone. We will see how it turns out.
