Fall Mani

Hey everyone! It's finally that time of year when the days are sunny and nights are chilly! My favorite season: fall. I love everything about it: the leaves falling, chilly days, starbucks everyday, halloween. I think I'll stop.

I decided to once again create a mani inspired by fall. I attempted two last year but both were a fail. Check them out: Fail #1 and Fail #2! But this year I really liked how they look! Enjoy!

Gradient Challenge: Day 2: Yellow

Hello lovelies! Today is the second day of the Gradient Challenge Kelly (Nailpocalypse) and I are doing this week! Since the theme is yellow I tried doing a yellow gradient and black stamping to make it look like a bee. However, it ended up looking horrible and started over.

Soo this is the outcome. I'm not sure how I feel about it but I didn't feel like trying a third time. I'm sure Kelly came up with something super awesome so don't for forget to check out what she did for Day 2: Yellow!
