Neon Leopard Nails

Just another set of freehand leopard print nails with a neon base.

I can't get enough of true neons and leopard print!

Neon Gradient Zebra and Leopard Nails: Week 26 of the year of Polish Challenge

This week's assignment for A Year of Polish Challenge was a Neon Manicure.   Neon gradients are so striking so I did my nails up and they decided they needed something.  I decided to practice my freehand zebra and animal prints and I think it works well!   Another Lisa Frank inspired mani!

Gradients are on the challenge list in a couple of weeks so I am getting in some practice ahead of time!

Skeleton and Bows Nails: Week 20 of the Year of Polish Challenge

This design was one that I've had in my head awhile.  I finally drew out the design on paper and it is rare, but the drawing was cuter than the nails.  I am too lazy to do them over so here you go!  Nail Fail #4530 lol.

Morse Code Nails

Don't you just love Pinterest?  These nails are directly inspired by something I found on Pinterest and thought "what a neat idea for nails?!"

Incidentally, the note card below is the source of my inspiration for these Morse Code Nails:

Cute right?  You can actually buy them here!

Without further ado, here are the nails in question!

I think the design and colors for these nails make them . . .  - - -    -.-.  - - -  - - -  .-..!

Dots of Summer Nails

Being a relatively new resident of Denver, I have come to appreciate the extra long "summers" I had in Texas.  Snow in April makes me long for flip flops, shorts, and summery neon nails.   I am vacation right now (in Texas, incidentally) and did these Neon polka dot nails.

(Sorry about the quality of my photo taken with my Droid--I inadvertently left my digital camera at home!)

The base is KleanColor Teal Envy with a chunky holo top coat.  The white dots were made with Sinful Colors Snow Me White and the inner dots were made with Sinful Colors Innocent, Amethyst, Boom Boom, and Wet N Wild Megalast Club Havana.  I also topped each dot with a matching chunky holo color.  The dots were made with two sizes of dotting tool heads.   C'mon Summer!

Ribbon Nail Fail

I have to show this nail fail not because its spectacularly bad but it does show how one can, um, overdo the nails.  Sometimes I just don't know when to quit.  Even so, the idea has good bones so I'll keep working on these!
