Contest Entry

This is a VERY quick post to show you my entry to the China Glaze and Seche Vite contest!

You can vote for your favourite here. I'm not asking you to vote for me, vote for whichever one you like best!! Not even I have voted for my own :)

Here's my entry -

The contest was to do a manicure using only China Glaze and Seche Vite products. I have to admit I very nearly didn't enter because without konad I am truly bad at nail art but in the end I thought 'give it a go'!

I used China Glaze's Coconut Kiss for the base and the circles were done using a brush protector and CG's Emerald Sparkle, Ruby Pumps 2Nite and Sexy in the City. There's also a bit of Fairy Dust on there too! Top coat was of course Seche Vite :)

So get voting people! There are some really fabulous entries so good luck deciding who to vote for!!

China Glaze's Emerald Sparkle and a couple of dodgy manicures!

Hey!

Today I thought I'd show you a couple of manicures I've done this week that didn't really turn out as I expected.

Both times they were meant to be festive manicures but both times they didn't really turn out quite as I had imagined in my head!

The first one was a french manicure using China Glaze's Emerald Sparkle (thank you Judy!), Sinful Colors All About You, CG Fairy Dust and CG Ruby Pumps for the Konad Stamp.
 

This didn't stay on long because it just didn't look quite right to me... I think I need to get a better red for konading!

Next I tried a manicure using pretty much the same polishes again apart from Fairy Dust -

(China Glaze Emerald Sparkle and Ruby Pumps with Sinful Colors All About You)

Again, this just didn't quite work for me! Rather than look festive I think it looks more like a flag of some sort!

So not much success for me there! Before I did either of those though I did try out Emerald Sparkle on it's own -

SUCH a gorgeous green! Absolutely love it.

The snow here is so bad at the moment! I wished for snow so much but it's a classic case of be careful what you wish for! It'd be ok if we didn't need to go out but we don't have the turkey yet!!! I hope it slows down enough for us to go get it tomorrow.

Lastly here are a couple of really short videos for you. The first one is my 2 cats, Bobo and Barnaby, doing their favourite thing - wrestling!

About 2 seconds after I stopped filming Bobo fell off the bed and they both dashed off on a mad gallivant around the house!

Lastly, I saw this video of someone else's cat and it's so cute and funny!!
