Saran Wrap Nails

Today I have Saran wrap nails!
This creative and simply technique 
is hugely popular, but believe it or not,
this is my first time trying it out!

I decided to go with one of my favorite 
color combinations, brown & turquoise.

I started with Sinful Colors in Nirvana, 
a delicious milk chocolate brown cream.
While waiting for it to dry, I tore up small pieces of Saran
wrap and crumpled them up.

I topped it off with China Glaze in Aquadelic,
one of the best minty turquoise creams out there in my opinion.
While its freshly wet, I took a piece of the crumpled
Saran wrapand lightly dabbed it onto my nail, creating an
almost soft crackle finish. 
LOVE IT!

Here's the end result.



 

Super cute and EASY!
Have you tried Saran wrap nails yet?
What kind of color combinations have you tried?

Cool Zebra

Hi Everyone! 
I hope everyone is having a wonderful Summer so far!
Things have been a little slow on my blog, and I do apologize for that!
As my kids get older, every Summer, every holiday, it seems to 
be increasingly more difficult to find time and reign them in...
and I haven't even reached the teens yet!
YIKES!

But I do have a new design today, and I've also got some
hauls and swap posts coming up as well.

So today, I've got a blue turquoise gradient zebra print. 
I don't know why, but I always associate animal prints 
with Summer, I guess it is just the boldness and the fun of them.
I always like using unusual color combinations with my prints too
to keep it even more interesting.
I've had several people comment that this feels more aquatic, 
and reminds them of drifting seaweed....that works too!
This design was inspired by so many others I've seen, I just had to 
try it out and make it my own. 
I hope you like it!
