Since it's 2 a.m., it's technically Halloween. This won't be a long post; it's simply for purposes of Halloween.
First, a complete VOTD. Or VO-Yesterday. Whatever. It's a vent.
Last night I settled in with what I thought was a foolproof plan for a fairly quick Halloween mani that I would actually wear out of the house. Mummy nails the water marble way. I'm good at water marbles, right? Should be a cinch.
I found the polishes I wanted and off I went. I marbled 'em all, and they looked really nice. As a marble. As mummies, not so much.
And then being the genius that I am, not only did I not take a picture of that nice water marble, I took it off, painted my nails blue and called it a night.
I went to bed pissed.
So the plan for today was work, clean the house, make supper, do Halloween nails. And that's exactly what I did.
I'm not the least bit excited by these, but at least I can say I did a manicure for Halloween. Cuz' I'm cool like that.
This is a gradient using (light to dark) Essie Rock the Boat, China Glaze Secret Peri-Winkle and Maybelline Color Show Blue Freeze. Then I used Julep Ledi for the black stamping. The graveyard is off of Messy Mansion's HD04 stamping plate, and the little bats are from the Bundlemonster BM213 plate. As an afterthought I decided to slap on a bit of Orly Shine On Crazy Diamond to add a bit of twinkle to the night sky.
I'm assuming this will be on for a few days. Razzie will be here for some puppy fun this weekend, so at this point I'm just hoping to get this off before work on Monday, at which point it will be too late to be sporting a graveyard on my nails.
Happy Halloween!!!
They turned out wonderful!
