Quilted Hearts - Trying my hand at Liquid Jelly's Tutorial

Happy Hump Day everyone!

Today I decided to share with you my attempt at completing a tutorial by written by one of my absolute FAVORITE bloggers Liquid Jelly  She completed this tutorial a few weeks back & I always kept in the back of my head that I wanted to try it.   Although my daughter told me i'm too old to be wearing this mani, I couldn't help but try.

I'm horrible at nail art but I was so proud of myself.  Although it's far from perfect, it just shows me that maybe next time I can do a little bit better.  I video'd myself during the process & it seemed everything in the world went wrong but I hoped to be an inspiration to other newbies who are afraid to jump in & try!  It's not perfect but I still love it.  Thank you Liquid Jelly for sharing your awesome talent!

 

 

Thanks for reading!!

Max Factory Fantasy Fire Stamped plus Tutorial

It's day 2 & I still can't stop looking at Max Factory Fantasy Fire.  Especially when the sun hit it.  But I wanted something different today.  I saw a leopard tutorial on several blogs & decided I would give it a try.  I'm not giving credit to anyone as i'm unsure where this originated from.

I used the video below as a guide but changed a couple of things to make it easier for me; however, if you're unable to view videos, I've posted the picture tutorial as well.  I love the outcome..ESPECIALLY in the sun.  



Max Factor "Purple Leopard" Nail Tutorial from Dionne Loftus on Vimeo.
Instead of using the Max Factor pen, I used Konad image plate M57 & Kleancolor polish in black (this stamps even better than the Konad black & doesn't smudge!!)
Here are my results.  What do you think?  I'd love to see yours as well.
