Batman Nails

Happy Friday! Today I have a mani I have been planning for a long time! Mr. heartNAT is a huge Batman fan and when I told him about an image plate that has Batman he told me to get it and he'll buy it for me so of course I took him up on that offer. I wore it to watch The Dark Knight Rises today and I have to say, it was amazing. It's high up on my all time favorite movies list. For my base colors, the yellow is China Glaze Happy Go Lucky, the black is OPI Black Onyx. The Batman image is D25 from Chez Delaney and I stamped it in Konad Yellow and Konad Black. The blue chevron is OPI Swimsuit Nailed it, and the building image is from FUN2 and it's stamped in Konad White. I knew right away I wanted to do the bat signal with the buildings, but I got the idea to do a chevron from Not Another Nail Blog. If anyone else catches the movie this weekend have fun!

China Glaze For Audrey and Konad M59 and M79

Good morning beauties! Today I have a very girly mani. I have owned China Glaze For Audrey for probably over a year now, but have finally decided to use it. I tried it once in the winter and thought it looked weird on me, but I gave it another go and it's so pretty. I stamped dots using Konad M79 and the bow with Konad M59 in Konad White. I added rhinestones to the bows and I think it finished everything off nicely. On a side note, I have been wanting to get M79 for the dots for the longest time and I finally gave in. I kept telling myself I should just practice using a dotting tool, but the perfectionist inside me would not have it lol.

Exotic Encounters and Gold Glitter Frames

Good morning! I'm having a lovely 3 day weekend with my hubby celebrating our anniversary weekend. Yesterday we had a marathon of Breaking Bad Season 4 and then watched the premiere of season 5. Who else did that yesterday? Today I have my first frame mani. I was not a huge fan of the frame mani, but I saw toned down with just dots or glitter and wanted to try that out. I actually like it toned down instead of a full solid frame or maybe it's because the solid frames I see are really messy or too thick. The Nailasaurus rocks at frame manis, I love all of hers! I used China Glaze Exotic Encounters and added some gold hex glitter. I quite like this and it doesn't take much time to do!

Color Club Modern Pink and Konad M65

Happy Saturday! Today is my first wedding anniversary with my husband! Last night we went to a flashlight tour at the Winchester Mystery House. It was really fun, not very scary though. I was half hoping I would see something paranormal, but I guess I'm glad I didn't because I wouldn't have been able to sleep. I was going to do some stamping with red and hearts, but it would look too much like a Valentine's Day mani so I used roses instead. I used Color Club Modern Pink and stamped using Konad M65 in China Glaze Passion.  Hope everyone has a great weekend!
