Creative Nails Collab - Hello Summer

Hello nail art lovers,

Officially, summer is here! Curious enough, we've had rain every day since June began - not that I'm complaining...

Anyway, my nails are meant to represent heat and fun so... have a look!

Creative Nails Collab - Puzzle

Hello nail art lovers,

I don't know about you all, but this Saturday I'm feeling kinda... puzzled!
No, it has nothing to do with confusion, it's just the weekly theme that reminds us that we switched months. :)

Saturday's Theme - Hawaiian

Aloha, nail art lovers! ^_^

I believe you've already figured out what this week's challenge is, haha. Pretty predictable, but very fun to paint, as I've taken my best sponge out and did another gradient for this manicure.

Saturday's Theme - Ice Cream

Hello, nail art lovers!

This week's theme was awesome! But my pictures did not turn out so well, even though I'm pretty proud of how my nails looked. Ice Cream has been a theme that we had last year, as well, and my manicure was featured at an ice cream themed party. I was so happy!

July's Nail Challenge - Fruitylicious

Hello, fruit lovers! Oh wait... I meant nail art lovers!

Now that I "accidentally" disclosed the theme, I might as well carry on and give you the details.

Today's theme is all about fruits. I chose to interpret it in my way and give fruits personalities and cute looks. :D

1 Decembrie - Ziua Nationala a Romaniei

Hello!

Today is Romania's National Day and this is the first time I'm doing my nails for this event. I'm not a nationalist or anything similar, but I do like my country and, due to some changes going on in the political field, I kinda felt the need to express something with my nails, using the colors of our flag: red, yellow and blue.

Here's a little bit of history from Wikipedia:

"Great Union Day (Romanian: Ziua Marii Uniri, also called Unification Day[1]) occurring on December 1, is the national holiday of Romania. It commemorates the assembly of the delegates of ethnic Romanians held in Alba Iulia, which declared the Union of Transylvania with Romania.

This holiday was set after the Romanian Revolution and it marks the unification of Transylvania, but also of the provinces of Bessarabia and Bukovina with the Romanian Kingdom, in 1918."

Nail Art Marathon 2015 - 13. Beach Scene

 

Woohoo! I made it on time for my own theme! Hahaha!

Ok, so, as you can see, this week I had the privilege to choose the theme and I decided to suggest that the girls have beach scenes on their nails. Originally, my idea was to paint a beautiful sunset on the beach with two lovers looking at it, but since my nails are half the size they were when I thought of that I had to change it.

I still couldn't let my short nails appear on my blog right at this moment so I filed some plastic tips to match my nails and I painted on them instead. ^_^

Nail Art Marathon 2015 - 9. Butterflies

Hey, hey!

Another late manicure is here! This time I don't have any excuse for not posting on time, except for my laziness... Or I could blame the hot weather... May I, may I? :D

Anyway, this week theme was Madalina's idea and it is one of my favorites from this collaboration - butterflies! ^_^

I love butterflies for their beautiful colors and soft wings. They brighten my day when I notice them in the garden or on the street and I remember that in my grandparents' back yard there was always this white butterfly that would appear each spring and sit on my grandfather's shoulder at some point during spring. I'm pretty sure there's some magic involved. 

And here are my nails:

Nail Art Marathon - 8.Gradient

Hey there!

This week's post is a little late because I had some issues with my nails and other things, plus a very busy end of the week, but I managed to take some [bad] pictures of my manicure this evening.

The theme is one of my favorites - gradient - and was Madalina's idea. I use a lot of gradients as a background for my manicures but this time I tried to make it stand out a bit.
