I'm not a nail tech. I have no training. I know my nails aren't perfect. But I do my nails for me and just have fun with it. I don't update as often as I should. But I always have polish on. I usually wear it for 3 or more days at a time.
If you like what you see give me a follow or comment. I'd love to hear from you! :)

*Again, the Canadian thing. Sorry.

I wasn't sure how to take this prompt...
I've mentioned that I am an avid hockey fan, so I'm finishing up my 31 day challenge with some Hockey nails.

My favourite team is the Montreal Canadiens, their graphics this year is black and white and the logo in colour. I did these nails for the inter-squad game they hosted the day before the pre-season kicked off [pre-pre-season!?]. I did the newsprint nails and free handed the logo. You can see my inspiration here.
Also as you can see I did both hands, even though I don't always show both hands, they are usually the same.


That concludes my 31 days. Did I pass at least half of the days?!

31DC2013 Day 30 - a tutorial

Here is the nail art I did based on a tutorial. The tutorial was done by Chalkboard Nails, who does awesome work. The tutorial I did was for Beauty and the Beach. As you can see I mixed up the fingers, it was not done on purpose. I just started the white on my index and then went 'opps, oh well'.

I'm still happy with how they turned out.




one more day!


31DC2013 Day 29 - the supernatural

I wasn't sure where to go this with one. I'm really not big on aliens and ghosts, So I went with these cute unicorn nails. Inspired but professionalDQ on youtube, she has some very colourful nail art tutorials and some cute unicorns.




31DC2013 Day 28 - a flag

The Union Jack. I have wanted to try this one for a while and finally had the chance when the One Direction movie came out. The other nails are also a first attempt, the waterfall mani. I first saw this done by The Nailasaurus, she even did a Monochromatic one based on a comment I left on her blog. :D




Bonus pic: my toes. I don't often do nail art on them, but I couldn't have One Direction inspired Union Jacks, without tribute to the cutest Irish member. 


31DC2013 Day 27 - artwork

This one is a total stretch. But I had a dream one night a few weeks ago and in it was I was painting a picture. It was a landscape, from the top of a hill with a little village. Well that was what it was going to be in the dream all I got done was the big pine tree, seen here.

I have sort of started the real painting on a canvas might show up on this blog some day depending on how it turns out...

31DC2013 Day 26 - a pattern

Another simple design, but a nice fall look.





31DC2013 Day 25 - fashion

I know there is a lot of 'out there' fashion. I would have attempted something crazy but in case you haven't noticed I like simple designs. So here is my inspiration, it's from the Joe Fresh Fall line, I guess. I thought it was pretty.




Pass or fail?!
