#WhenColorsCollide vol.1 !!!!

Hello, my lovelies....

How is your summer? Any new art ideas or interesting stories? Hope so. Also hope you are spending this hot sunny days as good as I do.

Some of you probably have already seen my last mani at my IG - @redfrogscorner but it's finally time to post it here too. It's my first design for the #whencolorscollide be-weekly challenges and this time the theme was green&blue. I've used three of the most gorgeous holographic polishes in my stash and mixed them using the dry marble technique.

Don't forget to take a look at the group collage in Instagram and Facebook.

Now go and have a cold tasty drink with someone you love.... and enjoy the evening.

Stamp the sand with BPS Crystal clear stamper !!!

Hello, my lovelies....

The weekend is almost over and it's time to prepare for the new working week. That's one of the things I hate most. I'm still on a lazy mode and there's only one power on earth that can give me enough strength to start the process immediately - doing my nails.

Week or two ago I've received a package from Born Pretty Store and guess what was inside it - my first crystal clear jelly silicone stamper. Well, there were few more gorgeous things along with the stamper - you've already seen the beautiful water decals. So, your frog has a clear stamper! Oop-oop! And as I've said on my IG let the stamping begin!!

I'm really impressed how easy the whole process was -  the stamper's diameter is almost perfect for claws like mine. The clear surface gives enough control so you can easily transfer the image on the place you want. 

More great plates are available on the store here .

Let me show you couple of photos I've made with a flash and surprisingly the colors are pretty accurate -

School time with A-England and L'Oreal !!!!

Hello, my lovelies….

There are less than 2 weeks until my daughter’s first day in 4th grade and all the thrills are ready to explode. Wondering what to put on my nails at that special day I surprisingly found the photos of the mani I’ve made last year for the same occasion. Yeah, I know…. One year later is a bit longer even for me but what can I do – the folder probably had been ‘lost in the script’.

As you can see on the photos the mani is mostly in yellow and green – these were the colors of the uniforms in her school last year. As a good mom I’ve wanted to make her happy with dressing myself in the same colors and of course with a mani in the same theme.

This year the pupils will be dresses in deep blue with accents in bright orange and pastel yellow – a better color combo for sure. So when the time comes I’ll show you how your Red Frog, a proud mom of a 4^th grade girl manage with that palette on her nails. Now let’s see the photos.

 It’s not one of my best presentation but the kid was enough happy with it. To be honest I did like it too because the colors were not the typical for me. Let’s hope to do it much better this September.

Draft Series: Do the Dots !!!!

Hello, my lovelies....

Couple of days ago was Day 6th of #OMD3 Challenge and as I may say my mani was a complete disaster... We should be honest with our own selves right? 

Back to the #DraftSeries, please.

So, after yesterday's failure I've decided it's time for the next post from my draft box. And what better way to cheer myself up than a good old doticure? I know it isn't something very special but who cares? At least it's better than my #omd day 6th.

Draft Series: Holographic decorations !!!!

Hello, my lovelies....

It's early in the morning here in Sofia and the sun is still sleeping somewhere far from us. My little princess is also still sleeping. It looks like all the world is still sleeping. Except me. 

My coffee is right beside me and I'm ready to start the day. #DraftSeries are really close to their end. There are just a couple of posts waiting patiently to be published. 

Today's mani is one of the oldest in my draft box - my camera says I've made it around March 13th 2014. It's so bizarre. I can see my polish history in my Picassa albums - every single mani is like a page in a diary. 

So today we're back in 2014. It's March and the spring just has arrived with some holographic mix of decorations.

Brush Strokes & Studs !!!!

Hello, my lovelies ....

It's finally Friday. I'm finally home. Oops, it's not Friday .... It's Thursday but it feels like Friday. Just because there will be three, yes, three weekend days .... Yeyyy!!!! Tomorrow is May Day - International Workers' Day  so I'm going to have one more day to relax and have fun with my daughter. So why not to cheer myself up with a quick post tonight? There's only one thng to be sorry for - there was no sign of the sun when I took these photos few days ago and the gorgeous holo effect is almost invisible...

Forgive me. And enjoy your Thursday night.
