#StampingSaturday: You're So Boo-tiful

Happy Saturday ya'll!!!! Anyone have super fun weekend plans? We went to see a concert last night and now we're just lazing about the apartment.
Today I have a fun beauty to show you. This is Serum No 5 You're So Boo-tiful. This is a black jelly filled with purple, fuchsia, green, orange, and silver glitters. Bonus...it glows bright blue in the dark. I used two normal coats for full coverage here.
Then inspired by the lovely Lo of Bruised Up Dolly I stamped on some spiders and webs from Uber Chic Halloween-01 in Sinful Colors Snow Me White. I then added on some flat backed pearls to give the spiders some dimension. I'm normally not a creepy crawly person, but damn, I love those spiders.
So there you have it! Only one more week of fun Halloween manis ahead. Do you want to see anything specific?
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

Today's post is short and sweet, so let's dive right in. I showed off this beauty under some nail art in September, but I felt like it needs its own post so you can appreciate how just how pretty it is. This is ILNP Overnight Bag, a deep brown polish filled with scattered holographic particles. I used three thin coats for full coverage.
There you have it. Anyone have any weekend plans? We're going to see a concert tonight, so I'm sure tomorrow I'll be super tired because I'm a 70 year old in spirit.
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

Mix 'n' Match Pumpkin Faces

It's Thursday y'all. That means tomorrow is Jeans Friday and then I'm free for the weekend. It's much needed. I cannot wait to have a free moment. After this weekend its go go go through the holidays. How did that happen? It's a good thing I'm obsessive about my planner because otherwise our lives would fall apart.
Today, I have two things to show you. One is a beautiful polish and the other is some fun pumpkin faces, but more on those later. First lets look at the polish, Illamasqua Marquise, a warm-toned orange filled with gold. This polish is actually meant to be worn textured, but for today's purposes, I'm wearing it with a top coat applied.
Now for the fun bit. I got these Mix n Match Pumpkin Faces* from Beyond the Nail. They are little vinyls that you can pair up in a ton of different combinations to create pumpkin faces. Some of the smaller bits were a little hard to place, but not to difficult. I topped everything off with topcoat to seal the vinyls in.
And I'm topping this post off with a rare shot of both hands, so you can see more face combos. Don't expect it often ya'll.
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

Cirque Colors Some Great Reward

Another fun swatch for you today. When Annie texted me and said she'd figured out how to make brush stroke free multichromes, I knew immediately that they would be mine. As soon as they hit my doorstep, I had to play with them but deciding on the first one to use was incredibly hard. I finally settled on Cirque Colors Some Great Reward. This beauty shifts from green to gold, and sometimes I feel like there is a flash of blue there on the far edges as well.
There you have it. I'm sure you'll be seeing the others in this collection from me soon as well. They are sitting on my desk, asking to be used. ;-)
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

Happy Monday! Or....Boo Monday....if that's how you view it. I'm in Camp #2. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend, I went to see the Goosebumps movie on Sunday, it was super cute, and it inspired some nail art. Otherwise my house was filled with Sports on the TV. Between my baseball team and the hubs being in the playoffs, plus College and Pro Football (and a husband who is all sports all the time) we never get a break.
I started with a base of Different Dimensions Gnarly 2.0 on my thumb/pinky and Zoya Raven* on all the others. I then used Twinkled T Drip Vinyls and Raven to create the drips. I freehanded the Goosebumps font with Gnarly 2.0 and a tiny paintbrush.
Gnarly 2.0 makes the perfect slime. I adore the way it looks paired with black. Have you gone to see any Halloween movies yet? Goosebumps is about as scary as I get. I just don't like the Horror genre too much.
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

#StampingSaturday: Skeletons Galore

Happy Saturday y'all! I'm writing this post today while watching my beloved boys in blue, the Royals, play in the postseason. If this were an audio recording, you'd be hearing normal talk interspersed with yelling. To say I'm into Postseason Baseball is an understatement, especially when my boys are playing.
Today I have another fun Halloween look to show you. I think I've established where I stand on the whole October/Halloween issue, so prepare yourself for even more themed looks. Today I started with a base of Beyond the Nail Black Hole*. This was two easy coats for full coverage and lots of rainbows in that holographic base.
I then went in with Uber Chic Halloween-01 and Sinful Colors Snow Me White to add in all kinds of skeletons. My favorite is the little guy hanging out on my thumb.
