Green Week

Wanted to something green for Shamrock Day. But I didn't really have a good shamrock green. Or any shamrock stamps.  This green is Mint Sprint by Sally Hansen. Not really St. Patty's day green at all.  I didn't care for it. I had to take it off after a day.

Konad Plate m51
Konad Special Polish White
China Glaze Lemon Fizz for the flower centers.

Ocean Blue French Tips

This blue is more like a blue green and very metallic-ish.  I didn't love it.

Simple Lace

Simple, yet one of my favorites that I do quite often.   I love that it goes with everything.

Konad Blue

I saw this on Pinterest from Daily Something blog.  I didn't have the Essie blue that she used. I really liked it but couldn't find it at my local places, so I used what I had at home.   Essie Mezmerised as blue base and Sally Hansen InstaDri  Mint Sprint for green stamp.  Konad plate S6.

Copy Cat Pink

I saw this on Pinterest here and really liked it. And it's quick and easy.  No special tools needed.  Everyone has several shades of pink on hand.  I used Milani Paradise Pink as the base, NK Bubble Gum as the middle shade, and NYC Fuchsia Shock Cream as the darkest top corner.
