OMD Challenge - Day 28 - Inspired by TV show

Today's theme is inspired by a TV show. Just like with the movie theme, I didn't know what to do. I decided to use WnW Grey's Anatomy because it was an easy choice. Then I used Sally Hansen Honeymoon Red and a stamper and did a heartbeat.

OMD Challenge - Day 27 - Jewelry

Thank you for all the birthday wishes yesterday. Today's theme is jewelry inspired. Even though I recently picked up the rest of my jewelry from my dad's, I didn't feel like I had a good selection to choose from. I went with an older bracelet that was easier to transfer to the nail. I used China Glaze Icicle and Sinful Colors Pink.

OMD Challenge - Day 26 - Fav. Holiday/Vacation

Today's theme is favorite holiday or vacation. I'm sure most of my regular readers can already guess where my favorite vacation spot is at...Disney! Yes, even though I'm a born and raised Florida gal, staying at a Disney resort would be my ideal vacation. I've only had the pleasure of staying on property one time and that was a Christmas present from my dad for our family in 2010. I've dreamed of staying on property again and the resort I want to stay at is the Polynesian Resort. Hince the reason I based today's nails on the Poly.



I used:
White: Spoiled Correction Tape

Beach:
Sally Hansen Himalayin Blue
Revlon Peach Smoothie
Sally Hansen Sugar Fix

Turtle:
Sinful Colors Vacation Time
Revlon Midnight Affair

Palm Trees & "Coconuts"

OMD Challenge - Day 25 - Inspired by a movie

Hey everyone!! Today's theme is inspired by a movie. When themes are this broad, it's hard for me to think of a idea for a mani. I eventually decided on Breaking Dawn (part 1) which is a far-stretch. My inspiration is when Bella wakes up on her honeymoon and feathers are falling. The accent nail is blinged out just because they got married.


I used:
WnW Heart's Desire
Spoiled Correction Tape
Essie Set in Stones

OMD Challenge - Day 24 - Inspired by Tutorial

Hello everyone! Today's theme is inspired by a tutorial. I chose another design from CutePolish. But instead of "strawberry ice cream" I did "Mint Chocolate Chip" using Hard Candy Gummy Green. That's perfect for a hot summer day.

OMD Challenge - Day 23 - Inspired by Music

Hello everyone! Tonight's theme is inspired by music. I was not sure what to do for this theme but then I decided to go basic. I did a few music symbols and attempted a xylophone because that reminds me of music class in elementary. I loved music class, it was my favorite special.


I used:
Spoiled Correction Tape
Kleancolor Dark Brown
WnW Heart's Desire
Diamond Cosmetics nail art - black

OMD Challenge - Day 22 - animal inspired

Besides cheetah/leopard and zebra print, I also really like giraffe print. So for today's theme I decided to pull out my stamping plate that most resembles a giraffe print but went with an untraditional color scheme. What do you think? Does it really look like a giraffe or like some type of stone print? I used Kleancolor Dark Brown and WnW Heart's Desire.

OMD Challenge - Day 20 - 3D nails

I didn't have much here to do a 3D mani, so I got creative and found something random to stick on my nails. The polish colors is China Glaze With Love and Sinful Colors Black on Black.


OMD Challenge - Day 19 - Glitter

Hey everyone! I missed yesterday's post so there will be two posts today. The first one is glitter nails. I did two versions of glitter nails but I'll save the other one for a different day. For this mani, I applied Sinful Colors Dream on as my base color. Then I added Revlon Facets of Fuschia and used WnW Back Alley Deals for the tips. Purple overload!

OMD Challege - Day 18 - Delicate

When I think of delicate nails, I think of nice soft colors with a subtle print. At first, I went too subtle with my print and it barely shows up. Finally, I decided to go over it with a white.



I used:
Sinful Colors Candy Coated
NYC Cashmere Creme
Color Club Starry Temptress Top Coat
Spoiled Correction Tape
OPI Lucky Lucky Lavendar (on my index)

OMD Challege - Day 17 - Gradient

Gradients are the theme for today. I really like gradients. However, I do not like how mine don't flow smoothly together. Well sometimes they do and other times they don't. Like with today's gradient it took me two times to get it right. I find it's easier with one two colors but silly me tried to go all in and do three.
Since I didn't like the look of that one, I took it off and tried again. Better results the second time.





I used:
Zoya Zuza (first attempt only)
WnW Teal or no Teal
WnW Blue Moon
Color Club Starry Temptress Top Coat (first attempt only)
Spoiled Pet my Peacock

OMD Challenge - Day 16 - Half moon/ruffian

Before I continue to today's theme, I would like to take a minute to say Rest in Peace Talia Joy. You truly were an inspiration to many. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

Today's theme is a half moon or ruffian mani. I usually don't like how these turn out but this time I was pleased with outcome. I used WnW Ebony Hates Chris and Sally Hansen Rockstar Pink.

OMD Challenge - Day 15 - Hearts

Today's theme for the OMD challenge is hearts. Because of my color scheme this came off looking very "Valetine's Day" but it doesn't bother me at all. Once again I wanted to freehand my design and it didn't turn out the best but it's definitely noticeable that this is a heart. Take a look.

I used:
Hard Candy Pink Taffy
10 Pink a boo
Sally Hansen Fast Fuchsia
Spoiled Correction Tape

OMD Challenge - Day 14 - Flowers

Hello everyone. Today's OMD theme is flowers. I went to Elizabeth at Did My Nails for inspiration because she does outstanding flower manicures that always amaze me.

I've done my fair share of floral manis here on my blog but nothing that was "wow, I did that"! I went through Elizabeth's floral manicures and decided to try cherry blossom nails. She recently posted a tutorial that was really helpful and easy to follow. Here's how my cherry blossom nails turned out.


I used:
Sinful Colors Mint Apple
OPI Pink Friday
OPI If you Moust you Moust
Diamond Nail Art Black

OMD Challenge - Day 13 - Stars

Today is my mom's birthday (and Maribeth's). Happy Birthday ladies!! In honor of my mom's birthday, I decided to use one of her favorite colors, purple. For the OMD challenge, the theme is stars. Let me just say I did not do my favorite shape justice. I tried to do stars freehand and that didn't work. Then I tried to stamp and that was a fail too. But here it is...



I used:
OPI Planks a lot
Revlon Grape
WnW Kalediscope
