Love Birds

I started off with 1 coat of Sally Hansen Jungle Gem and then added 2 coats of Sancion Granito. Granito is a green tinted jelly with copper blue and green flakies, it is very pretty in person.
I stamped BM H22, using Mentality Proper, a set of love birds.

Weirdly enough, even though Proper is drastically different than Granito, because the copper flakies were so strong, it actually made this stamping really subtle in real life.  Granito can be layered to Opacity but it would be 4 coats or at least 3 thick coats and I don't have the patience for that kind of drying time.

Cookie Monster Nail

I have loved sesame street for ever I watched it until I was well out of its demographic. I do think elmo ruined it he was a selfish little puppet and still find him horribly annoying if I happen to catch a glimpse. I did however love the original cast of puppets and stop motion film shorts.

I started with 3 coats of Misa Peachy Keen. To make the cookies I used dots of Contrary Polish Hayride  and for the chips and out line  I used KleanColor Coffee Addict.   Cookie Monster was made using Mentality Ruffian and outlined using OPI Black Onyx, for the eyes I used Polish Me To Go White Undies.

OK, OK  so I may have gotten a little snap happy, believe it or not I had loads more. I do so love how these turned out. They are so cute.

Seeing Spots

This is 3 coats of  Mentality Nirvana which is described as an orange toned bronze holographic polish with copper accents. I think it leans more to gold but that's just me.
I used Cheeky plate ch11 stamped with Mash Black the  sequins and studs are from eBay

I like this look, I thought it was very cute, as usual Mentality and Mash polish are really great to work with, I liked the extra bit of shine added by the glitters and the studs were sorta cool.

Flowers and Stripes

I thought I'd do some roses again and maybe try to do striping. I think this turned out alright but I think I like my first attempt better :)
I started with 3 coats of Chick Cutie Pie. To make the stripes I used a striping brush and Ulta The Jungle Look (green)  and Princessa (pink).  To make the roses I used Princessa (pink) to make some blobs to start then I used a small detail brush and Dashica Stamper(red) Princessa (pink) Mentality Suede to add detail to the roses. I used Ulta The Jungle Look (green) to paint in some leaves.

I showed in both lights, I think the ones at bottom are more true to color. While I am fairly happy with how this turned out I do think my first attempt was better.

Mentality Nail Polish - Siren

Mentality Polish, Siren is described as a burgundy red holographic polish with purple flecks.
For me, even in person, I found purple to be the most prominent color, though I did catch it shift through burgundy to purple to almost grey finally to an almost lilac color.

Again sorry for the swatchy month, I've been a lazy bugger.
