A England Perceval and Freehand Nail Art

Hi loves! My previous post was just a swatch of A England Perceval and it was so beautiful I couldn't bring myself to stamp over it. I attempted some freehand nail art on top of it with black and white acrylic paint. I got some acrylic paint last month and haven't really used it, so I'm glad I finally justified my purchase lol. I liked working with the acrylic paint because I was able to wipe off my mistakes with water  and try again until I liked the result. I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but I didn't expect them to turn out so well. I'm kind of proud of myself!

A England Perceval Swatch

Hi pretties! I bought my first A England polishes last month when The Mythicals were on sale. I got Perceval, Tristam, and Lady of the Lake. Immediately after I placed my order, I decided to go all out and I placed an order on Ninja Polish for St. George, Dragon, and Princess Sabra. Why prolong the inevitable right? Lol I'm eventually going to want need them! Anyways, I decided to use A England Perceval first and since I couldn't bare to stamp over it, so here it is on its own. What a beauty!

China Glaze Peachy Keen and Bundle Monster 305

Happy Saturday ladies! Do any of you ever have a lack of nail inspiration? I do sometimes, but no need to fear, Pinterest is here! I love getting ideas from the stuff I see on there. I saw a beautiful mani from Pshiiit and I immediately had to recreate it. She used tape to create this look, but lucky me, I found a stamp that reminded me of it. I used China Glaze Peachy Keen and stamped using BM 305 in Essie Good As Gold. I'm kind of loving these =]

Pink to Purple Gradient Cupcake Nails

Good morning! Today I have an adorable cupcake mani to show you. I can't believe I waited awhile before using this image, it's so cute. I first did a base of China Glaze Something Sweet and then did a gradient using China Glaze Something Sweet, China Glaze Dance Baby, and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Lively Lilac. Lastly, I stamped using BM 307 in Konad White. I just love how the stars and dots around the cupcake make it look so whimsical.
