Corsage Inspired Nail Art

Hey Ladies! Here's another Prom nail art design I created. This design was inspired by a corsage that configure1973 recently purchased . I was SO Happy when I saw this video because I was racking my brain trying to figure out what to do with them feathers! As soon as I saw it I knew what to do! LOL! I was also glad to have the chance to use my new Doodlebug Glitters and the shreds I got From Tamanala and my red holographic that I got was back around Valentine's Day!

Here's a list of the producs I used:
Acrylics~ Clear, Red Glitter, Metallic Red, and Green
Glitters~ Red Holographic, Red Shreds, Small Black Hexagon, and Large Black Hexagon.
Black Mini Beads
Red and Black Feathers
Clear Polish



Another youtuber that was a big influence on this design was andreajk182. She does these totally awesome glitter mixes that I really love. She is the 1st person I saw make a nail art tutorial with feathers and I have been wanting to see one! Also I love the crescent moon filing that she does. I love have my nails sharp at the corners like that. =D So I had to try it! It really sets the look off! She has a website called The Rock Star Nails where she sells her glitter mixes and the prices are very good, so be sure to check it out! I hope Y'all love it!

Craft Store Haul

Hey Ladies! As usual, I've been shopping... I've recently been finding some good coupons for my local craft stores, so I wanted to share. I also wanted to show the last few things I got from Ebay.

I found a printable coupon for A.C. Moore for 40% off your entire purchase! Can you believe I didn't know there was one around here?! When I went to check it out, I noticed it's a bit more pricey than Michael's or JoAnn's but they have a lot of stuff that they don't as you'll see. So I was very pleased to get this coupon. Unfortunately, the last I didn't get on sale. =(

Doodlebug Sugar Coating Chunky Glitter's regular price is $19.99 but $11.99 with the 40% off coupon.

Doodlebug Sugar Coating Glitter Assortment regular price $16.99 but $10.19 with 40% off.


Craft feathers regular price $2.49 the 40% discount brought the price to $1.49 The pack came with red, blue, hot pink, green, yellow, white and purple.

I didn't get theses craft shells on sale, I can't remember exactly how much these cost but I know they were less than $4.00.

I am really sad that I didn't get these Sable Kolinsky brushes with my 40% off coupon even though I bought them the same day cause I was gonna get them @ Michael's but they didn't have any so I had to go back to A.C. Moore to get them. =( I got size 1 which cost $8 and size 2 which cost $12.


The only thing that I got from Michael's was This Martha Stewart's iridescent hearts & stars glitter. The retail price is $19.99 but it was $11.99 with the 40% off one item coupon.

These last 3 items I got from ebeautyhouse on Ebay.

Rhinestone wheel $1.18

4 size pearl wheel $1.88

1,000 4mm Pearl Hearts $2.99

I deco'd my phone up with the pearls, the pink and clear heart rhinestones I got from Karlinsu88 and some pink and clear rhinestone's I got from Michael's a while ago. =D Here's a pic... It came out OK, I should have got swarovski's though. Oh well...it's cute though =)

In case you like to hear me ramble, here's the video haul. =) Gotta love the wii shopping soundtrack. LOL Hubby been buyin old Intedo games so much I was whistleing this at work Friday! =P

Tiger Lily Mother's Day Nail Art

Hey Y'all! I made this design for Mother's Day! The look is inspired by the Tiger Lily flower. I really love them, they're so exotic!

For this design, I used metallic plum and translucent acrylic glitter acrylic under plum holographic and iridescent shreds encased in clear acrylic. I created a tiger lily as my decorations with gold mini beads as an accent. I used baby pink and golden yellow acrylic I made from L.A. Colors eye shadows. I got the glitters that I used from Micheal's & JoAnn's. I got the mini beads on ebay.
