Summer Nails!

This is aqua blue acrylic with white & silver mylar stars. I finished with a gel top coat. Now you're extra famous Ally!

Fourth of July rebel! This is a fun spin on fourth of July nails. The blue tiger stripes were painted on with polish.

These are little pink mylar flowers added into the acrylic. If you're a regular reader of my blog I'm sure you're not surprised that I added pink dots!

This is a fun design I did with mylar dots. I put a thin layer of acrylic on and then added the dots on top while it was still a little wet. Then I added clear acrylic on top of that. I finished with a gel topcoat for extra shine!

This is pink and white acrylic with little painted white dots as an accent. I did the ring fingers with an opposite color scheme of the other nails.

BUSY SATURDAY!

This is a great example of what could happen when you can't decide between two colors that you like. I think they turned out pretty "wicked"

Aren't these nails too cute! Both are done with opi polish and I finished them with the black tiger stripes! I hope you like your nails squishy!


The flowers on the ring fingers are made from fimo polymer clay. I did the pink tips in magnolia art glitter.

More fourth of July nails!

ITSY BITSY PURPLE & YELLOW POLKA DOT NAILS!

I am just loving these nails! I added little purple and yellow polka dot glitters into the white acrylic and capped them with clear. On the ring fingers I layered 2 real dried flowers together in yellow and purple. I finished it off with a gel top coat. Can't you just tell this client is fun by looking at her nails! Fun! Fun! Fun!


BLUE MYLAR
I have already shown nails similar to these on my blog. These are a little different though. I used a light blue acrylic on the nails which made the blue mylar seem even brighter. They remind me a little of a mermaid. Don't forget to click on the older posts link at the bottom of this page to view the nails that are similar to these.

Flowers and Fruit!

This is pink acrylic in "hot kiss". The blue flowers are real dried flowers. I finished it off with a gel top coat.



These grapefruits are made from polymer clay. I just got a bunch in all different kinds of fruit including strawberries, oranges, lemons, bananas, kiwis, and limes. I added the pink tips with acrylic and painted the yellow polka dots. I always use a gel top coat to make the nails extra shiny.

STAR SPANGLED NAILS

It's finally time for some fun 4th of July nails! I used blue acrylic with white stars on the nails and red acrylic with white stars on the ring fingers. Then I added the tips in the opposite colors. The toes are acrylic with red and blue mylar stars and I finished them off with red and blue polished dots.





LIME NAILS

Fruity Nails! These limes are made from polymer clay. I added the green acrylic to the tips in fresh lime. Now all that's missing is a margarita.

COTTON CANDY

The name of this color is cotton candy. I used opi makeover pink on the nail beds. The ring fingers have a real dried flower in cream. Those flowers in the background are real too! It is a clematis vine and I just had to use it as a background.

PINK LEMONADE

The color combination on these nails reminds me of pink lemonade. I used pink acrylic and added pink mylar chunks to it. Then I added yellow flowers to the ring fingers. The final touch was adding the yellow to the tips.

Purple Flower Bling!

I used glittery white acrylic and added shimmery mylar discs to make these nails really pop! The ring fingers are dried purple flowers. I just had to use my yellow rose bush as the backdrop for these. So pretty.



RIBBON RIBBON RIBBON
Here are some examples of all of the different ribbons that I have to use for nail art. I have used several of them in the pictures listed on this blog.

CREATIVE!!!

This was one of my most creative clients. She came up with the design completely on her own. She gave me a lot of suggestions for other designs too. There are little pink mylar flowers on all of the nails. You can't see them as well in the picture as you can in person. The ring fingers are real dried flowers. I added the pink dots with polish to tie everything togethter. They turned out so cute! I love when clients get into the nail art as much as I do. Thanks Cindie!

Let the sunshine in!

This is yellow acrylic with yellow mylar added. They are so sparkly!

CHERRIES!!!!!!
These cherries are made from fimo polymer clay. They are placed on top of a thin layer of the white acrylic and then covered with clear acrylic. I think they look especially cute with the red tip added onto all of the nails. It's amazing that I ever finished these nails because my client was so entertaining and had me laughing the entire time. Thanks Melony!

3D Mylar Nails

These are purple berry acrylic with pink mylar chunks added. They really have a dramatic 3D effect. I wish you could see them in person. They really pop!


These are my nails. They are purple acrylic with purple mylar added. I liked them so much I had to try a little different version on my client above.
