Thanksgiving Day Nail Art
I didn't clean up the edges of my nails after I did this design but I didn't want to delay this post any further. I think the lil pilgrim looks so cute! I was going to do a pilgrim on one hand then maybe an indian or a turkey on the other hand but didn't know how I could draw them in a way that would match the pilgrim. So I did the pilgrim on both hands and did some water marbeling on my pointer fingers to make the design more visually interesting. As always, products are listed below in the order I used them ..
Brown Nails
Brown Color: Pure Ice "Magic"
Shimmery Top Coat: Sally Hansen "Hidden Treasure"
Water Marble Nails
Base (off white) Color: Sinful Colors "Easy Going"
Brown Color: Pure Ice "Magic"
Yellow Color: Sinful Colors "Let's Meet"
Orange Color: Sinful Colors "Cloud 9"
Red Color: Sinful Colors "GoGo Girl" (This color showed up as a hot pink when marbling, so I tried to paint some red directly over the pink color in the water marble)
Pilgrim Nails
Base Color: Sinful Colors "Easy Going" **2 coats on entire nail**
Black Color: Sinful Colors "Black on Black" **Used a striper brush to apply the color, start with the top hat first**
White Color: Sinful Colors "Snow Me White" **Take the white polish and apply a V shaped french tip then line the edges with black**
Yellow Color: Sinful Colors "Let's Meet" **Applied with a striper brush to make the band around the top hat**
Brown Color: Pure Ice "Magic" **I used this color to fill in the gaps on the sides of the top hat**

My Nails for Thankgiving
So around 11pm last night i got the urge to do my nails and totally forgot about taking photos of all the steps i did to create what i did..so yeah no tutorial but i wanted to explain on my blog how i did it all.
not only did I use nail polish but also makeup pigments!
this is the design I did
.......
What you will need is
..
emerald green and a rustic red polish - or in my case pigments
clear polish
A sponge
A stamping image of a leaf
A good white polish that you can stamp with- I used konads white
striping brush
gold polish and golden yellow striping polish
and a black polish pen
....
So I applied my base coat first..then on a paper plate i put some off me BFTE (beauty from the earth) mineral pigments in colors Emerald and Isis
then on the paper plate pour a small amount of clear polish,then with your sponge dab it into the clear polish then dab it into the color of your choice ...then bring to your nail and in patting motions ..pat in the areas you want...What i did was half and half on each nail tip..and added just a little rustic red to the green and vise versa
so when that dries just apply a clear coat over entire nail to seal it all it.
Next I got my nail stamping stuff...with my white konad polish i applied to the image plate,scraped and picked up with my stamper and applied to the nail ..keep it random for each nail
here is the image I used..this in not a konad image plate..i won this plate and have no idea who made it,sorry
next I went and filled in the white of the leaf starting off with a yellow gold..and blended some darker gold into it...from there I got my striping brush
and with it a created a few wavy lines on each nail around the leafs.also added a few dots.
And lastly with a black pen polish i added a few drops of black on the gold spots i did...Apply top coat and your all done.
I hope i have explained how i did this clear...cos im hopeless when it comes to directions!...lol.
here is the finished design again
