Tribal Shatter :)

I know I said this last time but seriously life has been hectic :) in a good way. To fill you guys in I got engaged this past weekend so I'll give you an idea of what's on my plate that way maybe you won't be too mad for not posting weekly :)
Me and my fiance have full time jobs, a toddler (I could've just stopped at toddler lol my son is everywhere!!!), My fiance goes to online college full time so I watch our son on the days he has to study or take tests, I'm planning my cousin's baby shower, and starting to plan our wedding :) So exciting!! I still paint my nails every Sunday but the way they're uploaded is the kicker. I have to use my phone camera until I can replace it (Sorry) so the quality is still way below par :(
Anywhoo on to the nails that I've had in the past 2 weeks.

This is Orly's Oh Cabana Boy. The black shatter is Katy Perry's OPI Shattered with a topcoat of Seche Vite

This is China Glaze french with Strawberry Fields with a tribal print from BM in Konad Black with a contrasting teal stripe from LA Colors. Topped off with Seche Vite of course.

It is here!

My first post ever on my nail blog! Soo exciting. I created this blog to 1. Document all my designs. 2. Share them with the world :)
Before we continue there's a few things to know of me...
1. I won't do too many hauls unless it's super special

2. I won't be taking pics at every angle and in every form of light.

3. I can't guarantee I'll post EVERY Sunday but I'll do my darndest to do so.

4. I'm not a profession and no company is paying me to advertise, publicize or sending me samples. Everything you see posted is stuff that has been bought by me myself and I. Trust me my pocketbook doesn't lie :D

I'll be posting my design of the week or NOTW every Sunday as time permits. I'll also tell you how to recreate the design. I paint most of my designs on fake nails. I'll tell you what form of nails I'm using as it applies. This week will be my natural nails. I slammed my thumb in a car door (who does that?) Apparently me so I have to let my thumb heal before I can suffocate it with polish :)  That doesn't stop me from painting my other 9 nails. With that being said here's my first design.

This is a simple purple crackle manicure. I used Sally Hansen's Lacey Lilac as a base, Milani's Holographic lavender Hi-Res 514 and China Glaze's crackle Fault line with Seche Vite as a top coat.

It's not the best picture in the world but bare with me my camera died on VA Beach :(  All I have is my iPhone if you want a better pic you can look at my facebook. Clarice Uttke
