Challenge Your Nail Art: Traditional Thanksgiving Image

Happiest of Turkey Days to you!!!!  I hope you have wonderful plans for the day (even if you don't celebrate Thanksgiving!).  I'll be spending it stuffing my face with good homemade food, and chatting with family :)

Today is the final day of Challenge Your Nail Art's Fall theme!

For my traditional Thanksgiving image, I chose a turkey - but a super cute one!!  Check it out!

(Please excuse the boo-boo on my ring finger)

The only polish I used was "Weddell Sea" by Elevation Polish for the background, and "Pilgrimatic" by Different Dimension for the glitter gradient.  Everything else is acrylic paint.  I like him ^_^

The Challenge Your Nail Art group has some pretty fantastic themes coming up for the entire month of December - that's right, there will be a new design every other day starting December 1st!  Be prepared to be spammed with some jolly good nail art!!!  I will try to insert some regular polish posts in between, too, for those of you more interested in polishes than art ^_^

Have a fantastic Thanksgiving, lovelies!!  See you soon <3

Challenge Your Nail Art: Fall Colors

Hard to believe Thanksgiving is tomorrow already!!  I'll be spending the morning making grilled bacon guacamole and sweet potato bacon and chive biscuits.  Yummo!!

Today is the third theme for Challenge Your Nail Art - Fall Colors!

I have to admit, this one had me stumped a little.  You'd think such a vague subject would be easy, but I operate better on specific themes rather than leaving it to my imagination - go figure :P  So I decided to go with something a bit simple, and a little new technique for me :)  Here's my design:

I found every polish I had of my favorite fall colors (the reds, oranges, golds, and browns of the changing leaves).  I lined them up so they would look like they were turning from red to brown/black and sponged them on that way in a long gradient design.  From left to right, I used "Friday the 13th," "Donna," and "Akiko" polishes from Above the Curve, "Gobble Me Up" from Ice Polish, "Latte," "Mocha," and "Dark Roast," from Model City Polish, and "Blackest Night" from Colors by Llarowe.  The beautiful glitter gradient is "Pilgrimatic" from Different Dimension.  

I'm surprised at how lovely this turned out!  I'll be a little sad to take this off, but happy to know that this type of design worked for me ^_^  Sooooo many options out there now!  The world is mine!  Bwahahahaha!!

Make sure you check out the other lovely designs by some more amazing blogger gals!!  See you tomorrow morning for the last design <3
