Hi!
Today I have a Ruby Wing colour changing dotticure to show you!
Ruby Wing Crowd Surf
I picked this bright pink one up in my local Sally’s and the shade is called Crowd Surf.
I applied two coats of Crowd Surf over my usual base coat, the formula for this polish is lovely and it dries really quickly which is always a bonus!
For the dots I used a medium dotting tool with Barry M Black, Orly Velvet Rope and Poke from Illamasqua.
Outside!
I really thought that it was only going to change colour a little bit. I was really surprised that it actually changes to much! I really like the dark purple shade!

Hello everyone! 🙂
This is my last 31DC2014 post! And how could I not do a celebratory water marble!
Purple Water Marble
For this I used
- China Glaze – White on White
- Orly – Liquid Vinyl
- Sally Hansen – Good To Grape
- China Glaze – Bizarre Blurple
I have been a bit lazy with choosing the polishes for this and just grabbed the closest few on my desk. 😀
Purple and Black
I may have forgotten to use tape on my fingers, so the clean up for this took ages! Ugh, and I’m a little bit annoyed about not getting my little finger nail lined up as well as the others.
I really like this colour combination especially the blue iridescent flash from Bizarre Blurple.
Liquid Vinyl, Bizarre Blurple and Good To Grape
So, there it is the 31DC challenge all done, eventually… It only took me a couple of months longer than it should have… Ooops! 😀

Hello! 😀
This is my inspired by a tutorial post for day 30, The tutorial I decided to follow is this rather amazing one that I have been meaning to try for ages.
Nimbus Nail Art From The Nailasaurus!
Nimbus Nail Art
The polishes I used are
- China Glaze – White on White
- Chanel – Vendetta
- China Glaze – Get Outta My Space
- Revlon – Amethyst
- China Glaze – Bizarre Blurple
- Sally Hansen – Good To Grape
Purple Nimbus Nails
I found that the Nimbus technique is really fun! And definitely something that I’m going to try again!
I started out with a couple of coats of white on white as the base, then starting with Vendetta which is the darkest polish I used a cotton bud soaked in acetone and polish to dot on the colour.
When each colour was dry I repeated the process (with a new cotton bud for each colour)
Then I finished it off with a coat of Seche Vite!

I couldn’t resist doing a bit of stamping over this 🙂
I used Plate MM07 from Messy Mansion, this is the first time I’ve used this plate and it’s really lovely! I used Konad SP Black then another coat of Seche Vite
Messy Mansion MM07
I had better take this off and get on with the final post for the 31dc challenge! 😀

Hey everyone! 🙂
Today I have two very different attempts at the inspired by a pattern prompt!
Unfortunately I didn’t get the chance to photograph my blue gingham nails as soon as I had finished them so they all chipped and looking scruffy, so sorry about that!
Blue gingham Nails
For these nails I started out with a base of white on white from china glaze, for the gingham pattern I used a thin brush and my blue franken polish creation, you can find another post about it right here.
The black polish is Emotions from O.P.I It’s one of the Liquid sand range.
After I had finished the blue pattern I realized that I absolutely hated it! It looks like those dreadful plastic tablecloths! Ugh!
Purple stripe nails
These where inspired by the pattern of my fluffy slipper socks lol!
I used two polishes for this, Poke from Illamasqua and Inkwell from Sinful Colors. I Have to say I’m much happier with this than the tablecloth nails! 🙂
I started off with a coat of Poke, then when the first coat was dry I added alternating stripes of poke and inkwell, while the polish was still wet i used a pin to break up the edges of the stripes to give it a slightly fluffy look.
It was so easy! I added a coat of Seche Vite and it was all done! 🙂
nails inspired by stripy slipper socks lol

water marbled
Here are my water marble nails for day 20! 🙂
I decided that I wanted a glittery water marble. but it turned out to be more of a challenge than I thought…
glittery water marble
The glitter polish I wanted to use wouldn’t work, it’s too thick and heavy, so after some swearing and spilling nail polishy water over my kitchen, I instead used it as the base colour and made the water marble with a sheer sparkly purple and black, I think it worked quite well!
The polishes I used are
- Moon Walking – Rimmel
- Filthy Gorgeous – Twilight
- Purple Diamond – Sinful Colors
- Seche Vite
Originally I was going to use a clear polish but my bottle has vanished oO
purple water marble
I’m really happy with how my thumb nails turned out! One day I’ll manage to get the same marbleyness on each nail! 🙂
But I suppose I had better take it off and start on tomorrows nails! 🙂

Here are my (much shorter) day 19 Galaxy Nails!
Galaxy Nails
The polishes I used for this are,
- Twilight -Filthy Gorgeous
- Strap On Your Moon Boots – China Glaze
- Ruby Sapphire – Sally Hansen
- Get Outta My Space – China Glaze
- Barry M Nail are pens in black and silver
- Seche Vite
Purple Holographic Galaxy Nails
I decided on the China Glaze polishes as I wanted this to be shimmery, without being too metallic (if that makes any sense) and the Ruby Sapphire for it’s lovely purple blue duo-chrome shift!
After I had sponged on the galaxy pattern I used the silver nail art pen to draw on the stars. I couldn’t resist the little UFO! 😀
Then I sealed it all in with a coat of Seche Vite
