I'm a slacker

Sorry I've been bad at updating this past week but I've been going crazy.  I have been working on putting together a tutorial for the resin jewelry, but it will have to be split into parts and I'm still working out a few bugs.  I promise that I will get it posted shortly.



















In the meantime check out this franken I made.  I 'think' I accidentally duped Zoya's Danii!  Or at least pretty friggen close to it.



















I think it's a bit more mauve than Danii but it's got that awesome golden sparkle to it.  I really need to get a better camera, sorry.  I used an old light blue Avon that's almost a dupe for OPI What's With the Cattitude, a splash of Sally Hansen Maximum Growth in Cherry Charisma and a really healthy dose of Revlon Beach.

And here's a mani for you since I've been such a slacker...



















This is one coat of Finger Paints Carnation Creation.  This polish stains so badly that I had to wear another dark colour for my next mani.



















I double stamped with BM12 in Black and then used the rose image from Konad plate m36 in Sally Hansen Celeb City.  Meh.

Laser Lime Love



















Oh yeah Tronica again :)  This is 2 coats of China Glaze's Laser Lime.  I know I said I was going to use all my stamp images plate by plate but I have occasionally been switching it up and I used plate BM12 with Wet and Wild's Black Creme.



















I did use a topcoat here and it did sort of dull the holographic effect but I still liked it well enough.  I will probably use this image often.



















And here are my latest acquisitions over the last couple of weeks.  I think I'm seeing a trend here...what's up with all the blue polishes lately? From L-R:

Finger Paints Carnation Creation
Nicole By OPI Honeydew You Love Me?
Nicole By OPI Rich In Spirit
Wet and Wild Blue Wants to Be a Millionaire
Wet and Wild Night Prowl

The Nicoles were on sale at Shoppers last week for $5.99 :)

And speaking of hauls...lucky me again, I got to take part in the Zoya BOGO offer and I ordered 6 of the new polishes - 2 of the mattes, 2 of the cremes and 2 of the sparkles...Faye, Breezi, Mitzi, Apple, Mira and Phoebe for the bargain price of $26US.  Unfortunately I won't have them in my possession until my other sister, the Duchess of Doo, comes up here to visit us in late May.  If I didn't have a sister in the US I'd be pretty ticked off that Zoya doesn't ship to Canada...we need to fix that!  Zoyas are already pretty hard to find up here as it is!

A Princess of Poo two-fer



















I really liked these colours together but this didn't turn out like I thought it would.  I was pretty sloppy with it too.  This is the mani I did for the Princess of Poo before I left on my holidays.

It's 2 coats of Sally Hansen Salon Manicure in Yellow Kitty.  I stamped it with konad plate m64 in Revlon's Copper Penny.  I liked it but she didn't, so I freehanded the tips on it and did a terrible job.  I need to help her out with shaping her nails.  She's actually got one nail that has a wicked curve/warp to it...does anyone know any fixes for that?



















And this is the mani I did for her when I got home.  It's 2 coats of Color Club's Ms. Socialite...she seems to always pick out the colours that I've recently worn for some reason lol.  Then I stamped her with a partial image from BM12 in China Glaze's Hologram. 

So lastly, I just wanted to make a quick mention to anyone who's recently stopped by here that although I haven't been putting the Canadian purchase info in the body of my posts anymore, you can still find a listing of brands, retailers and prices if you click on 'Where to buy' under my blog header.  Does anyone know how to change the title on the 'pages' because I can only find how to change the 'home' page title?  Seems I'm not as computer savvy as I thought lol.
