Not so great!

Hey everybody:) Today I wanted to share some of the 4th nail art failures. Now sometimes I do things and they sound really great in my head and on paper, but when I finish the nail art it just looks like crap:( But I wanted to show you a few of the "not quite up to par" nail art from this week.

Here we go! First up is a water marble that really pissed me of.... as you can see the blue on the two middle fingers smeared and I had to do a little fill in work, boo! And I thought this one looked to much like the other water marble from Monday. Failure #1.

Next I did a star and stripes mani. Well the star didn't come out great and I really couldn't get passed that. So this is Failure #2.

This next mani was a really good idea in my head. I wanted to do half red and the other half blue and put stars in the middle.... well the stars from the polish I was going to use were to old and falling apart. And the white line just didn't do it for me:( Failure #3.

This next mani wasn't too bad. I did free hand fireworks. I really wanted more glitz, every time I went to make a post for this mani I just couldn't bring myself to put it up. So this mani is Failure #4.

Wow that is a load off me! I hope y'all know that I try really hard to bring you the best I can do and hope you enjoy reading our blog:) Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of these Failure manis!

Happy Polishing Everybody!

Water Marble Week- Day Two

Hey everybody :) Today I have a blue water marble for y'all. This one was a little tricky, had a few dots and water bubbles. These two colors just marbled so well together I had to show you even with the dots ♥ Here are my pictures.

So what do y'all think of these two colors together? I love the teal with the dark blue, they really set each other off well :)
Need some help water marbling? Here are some helpful links:

Opals are beautiful!!!! *Water Marble*

Hey everybody:) I just wanted to say how great y'all are, the response to the Bad Ass Water Marble was amazing..... Y'all Rock! Now today I have another amazing (well at least I think so) water marble for y'all. This water marble was inspired by an Opal.  I saw this an HAD to do a water marble!! Here is the picture of my inspiration .

Beautiful!!!

This water marble was not easy to get the combinations right ....*exhausted*  But I finally got it right!!! I started off with Color Club What a Shock as a base color. The green was the hardest part for me to figure out...... I needed this green in the marble but it just never seemed to work out right. THEN----------- lightning struck! Put the green as the base coat.... DUH! Then moving on to marbling colors, I wanted to have the dark blue in the marble so I went with OPI Yoga-get this Blue ♥ And then I wanted to bring in the other shades of blues(cause I already had the green covered) I went with 2 ULTA Polishes Jaded and Dance Teal Dawn.  This combination was perfect! Here are the amazing water marble pictures:)

I hope you can see the colors I was trying to duplicate from the Opal in this mani.  I love how the green pops out from underneath the water marble. Oh before I go on I had a little mash up with my pinkie that's why you can't see it so well(it was the first one I did and the colors ran together). This was fun to do.... I love water marbling, every nail has something different on it! Is there a color combo you want me to try???? Leave a comment and I can try it, it may not work but I will try and I will give you a shout out on the blog:)

Happy Polishing Everybody!
