Aussie Nails Monday - Black and White

Okay, it's not Monday, its Thursday...and I am super late with this post. This mani for Aussie Nails Monday was Black and White and because I have been sick for the last 2 days with fever, cough and just generally dying (swan-like!) I wasn't super creative. So today for my Black and White I did a gradient...

For this look I used a base of Ulta3 Lily White, then a gradient of Ulta3 Lily White, Nubar Citadel and Nubar Silver Sword and Ulta3 Satin Black

Then, because I couldn't leave well enough alone I did a coat of Sparkles by Julie Sugah!

I think perhaps I should have stamped on top of the gradient? Although I was pretty happy with this when I added the bling of Sugah! It was just what this needed to complete the look :) Hope you catch the what the other participants did..probably more creative than mine!

China Glaze I Herd That Leopard Print

Helloooo all, I just wanted to share with you my NOTD that I did whilst I was away for the weekend. It was nice and sunny so I wanted to do something blingy so I used China Glaze I Herd That and then stamped with Ulta3 Black Satin using Cheeky Jumbo plate!

I think I have been lemming Pinkerbell for over 6 months, so was very happy to snag a bottle of this in a recent restock! I also have Sunny Floam coming ...I wonder if Nail Pattern Boldness Flipping Out Hard and Sunny Floam are dupes?? Hmm..will have to swatch!

I have a baby shower this weekend so want to come up with a fun mani with a blue tone. Will have to show you what I come up with ..AND the mini cupcakes I am going to bake :)
