Cool Happinin' Ghosts

Bundle Monster is doing a Nail Art challenge to win their yet to be release 2014 Create Your Own Nail Stamping Plates.  You follow the theme for the day and include some kind of Bundle Monster product.  Today is supposed to be inspired by ghosts.  I mostly have plates from Bundle Monster, but I do have some stickers.  One of the collections I own has hats, glasses, and mustaches.  I thought those might be rather adorable on the sheet ghost shape.


I know this similar to a design I had previously done, but I think it is a bit grown-up and definitely executed better.  I know the background color, China Glaze Want My Bawdy, looks blue in the pictures, but it reads more purple in real life.  I don't think blurples were meant to be photographed. . .


I also used Nina Ultra Pro French White, China Glaze Liquid Leather, and Maybelline Color Show Clearly Spotted.



I really like how these little guys turned out.  I am not sure which one is my favorite.  If you have a favorite, leave me a comment and let me know.  Any suggestions if I visit this design idea again?

Tootles!

Edit*  I won Bundle Monster's nail art challenge for this day and this design!  I am over the moon excited!!

TIHNAC #3

Today's theme is ghost.  I scoured Google looking for some inspiration.  Nothing really caught my eye and I was not coming up with anything on my own.  I did find this blogger's post and I liked the different faces, so I decide to try my hand at it.  It seemed rather easy, but that was deceptive.  I have come to realize I have small nails, and this design did not do as well on them as I hoped.  However I am still happy with it.


I used Finger Paints Paper Mâchè, China Glaze Bizarre Blurple (from their new Halloween line Wicked, Eeep!), Wet N' Wild Hip (?), and China Glaze Liquid Leather.  I also used China Glaze Ghoulish Glow, but I forgot to add it to this picture.  Plus I didn't get a picture of the ghosts glowing, because I couldn't figure out my camera.  Which makes me sad because you could see their faces in the glow.



What do you think?  Not too bad.  I am still learning, but I also know it could be better.






I really like the faces.  My ring finger looks like he is laughing and my pinkie looks forced serious.  I also like the half smile on my middle finger.  Too much fun!



An inside shot just for refrence.

Check out all the other talented participants.  I love looking through the photos.  Also, it is not too late to join, wink, wink, nudge, nudge. . .

Tootles!
