GO RAVENS! Super Bowl 2013 Manicure!

As promised, here is my Ravens Super Bowl manicure! :) 

 I told my husband and my dad that if the Ravens made it to the Super Bowl that I would do a Ravens manicure! I'm not a football fan but I do love Baltimore.

I decided to do the menacing Raven's eyes on my middle and ring nails with some "explosion" accent nails.

I used Orly Charged Up, Sinful Colors Black On Black, OPI Dazzled By Gold, Essie Laquered Up, Sinful Colors Snow Me White and (of course) Seche Vite as my top coat.

Hope you enjoyed this mani and have a great Super Bowl weekend!

GO RAVENS!

GO O's!!!

Well, Hello there! Two blog posts in one week?! Am I feeling alright?! :P

Today I have a Baltimore ORIOLES manicure to show you! I am not a huge sports fan but the one sport I can understand and enjoy going to watch is baseball...and since I am from Baltimore I like the O's...naturally! They happen to be doing pretty well this season and I know everyone in Baltimore is pretty stoked about it. 

Besides the fact that they are doing well, I have a few other reasons to have my nails like this!

Tonight I will be going to the O's game with my dad, sister and my husband. It's a special game because they will be unveiling the statue of Cal Ripken Jr. at Camden Yards. (Today is also the 17th anniversary of Cal Ripken Jr. breaking Lou Gehrig's record for consecutive games played...2131!) Oh, and they're playing the Yankees...bringing my team spirit is a must!!!

 On Saturday, my husband's cousin is getting married and the wedding has an Oriole theme (Congrats Jenn and Derek! :D) and I will be going to another Oriole game next Tuesday! 

So, I hope you enjoy the design I came up with! It was a tough one! The striped nails are done with tape and the "O" and The Bird are painted by hand...

Yes...I'm crazy. ;)

GO O'S!!!!!!

I'm back with an abstract "Cloud" mani!

I bet you thought I died, didn't you?! Nope. Alive and well....just a busy girl! :)
I hope you all are doing well and enjoying Spring so far! :D
Today I have a mani that I did last week. It's sort of and abstract "cloud" mani. I used Orly "Wild Wisteria", "Essie Braziliant" (which is also on my toes right now! I love it!) and Sinful Colors "Snow Me White". This was my first attempt at the "cloud" and I like it! It actually wasn't that hard...even though it was freehand. No tape involved here! I hope you like it and I will be better about updating on here more often. :)

Hope you all have a very Happy Easter!
