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!

Nail Art Marathon 2015 - 4. Palm trees

Hello! :D

Summer's here, the weather's nice and warm, and this week's theme, which was Oana's idea, fits in perfectly: Palm trees! :D
Wouldn't you like to be a on a sunny beach, under a palm tree, sipping a yummy cocktail and reading your favorite book? I know I would...

Anyway, since I can't be next to a palm tree right now, I'll settle for the ones on my nails:

Alphabet nail art challenge - Letter H for.. Harry Potter! (Hogwarts & Hedwig)

Ever since the first book appeared in Romania, I became obsessed with "Harry Potter". I love the idea of wizards, a school of wizardry and pet owls, almost as much as I love vampires! :">

This time, my idea came from a Facebook Harry Potter fan page that promoted Hogwarts quite a lot lately. ^_^ I looked on deviantART for inspiration and I found the perfect drawing of the school, which you can see here. Since I rarely wear the same design on both hand, I used another "symbol" from the book, that begins with the letter "H" - Hedwig, Harry's owl! :D

Alphabet nail art challenge - Letter F... for Fairies


 Today's challenge was to make a manicure inspired by the letter F. In my case, a friend suggested I try painting fairies on my nails... and so I did! :D

Alphabet nail art challenge - Letter D for... Dinosaurs RAWR!

Hello ladies! :D
This week 's letter is the letter "D" *giggles*

My first idea was to paint dragons on my nails for today's challenge, but while searching for inspiration on Google I found these cute, little dinosaurs which I just had to reproduce on my nails! ^_^

Alphabet nail art challenge - Letter A - Alphabet

Hello ladies! ^_^

I haven't posted in almost two weeks (shame on me) but I just couldn't bring myself to do it, even though I did do my nails and even took pictures! :)) I guess I was just lazy... 

Aaaanyway, today I am happy to announce you that the girls from the previous collaboration have agreed upon participating in a new collab, inspired by a picture posted by Miss Happy, called "Alphabet nail art challenge" which will last for 26 weeks (26 letters in the alphabet - get it, get it? :D ). The rule is simple - each week we post a manicure inspired by a word or technique that starts with the letter corresponding to the week. This week's letter is... *dum dum dum*  A (of course it's A, dooh... ) and I chose to show you the whole alphabet on my nails! :D

Painted Nail Art Stickers (Tutorial)

Hello!
As I promised in my previous post, today I am going to show you how to make stickers for your nails, using acrylic paint and a clear nail polish. :D

Buna!
Dupa cum v-am promis in postarea anterioara, astazi am a va arat cum sa faceti abtibilduri pentru unghii, folosind vopsea acrilica si un lac de unghii transparent. :D


First of all, this is what you need:
a. a nail art stamp or a normal rubber (not shiny)
b. acrylic paint
c. nail art brushes
d. a clear nail polish (I forgot to take a photo of it -_-" )

In primul rand, aveti nevoie de:
a. o stampila pentru nail art sau o radiera normala (sa nu fie lucioasa)
b. vopsea acrilica
c. pensule pentru nail art
d. un lac de unghii transparent (am uitat sa-l includ in poza -_-" )


 And here are the steps to having original nail art stickers! :D
Si aici sunt pasii pentru a avea abtibilduri originale pentru unghii! :D


1. Draw the contour lines of the image you want onto the stamp/rubber.
1. Desenati conturul imaginii pe care o doriti pe suprafata stampilei/radierei.

2. Fill in the colors (be careful, acrylic paint dries fast on this surface so you have to move quickly and carefully, not to ruin the contour lines)
2. Colorati imaginea (aveti grija, vopseaua acrilica se usuca repede pe aceasta suprafata asa ca trebuie sa va miscati repede si cu grija, sa nu stricati conturul).

3. Wait for the painting to dry out completely (about 1-2 minutes)
3. Asteptati ca pictura sa se usuce complet (aproximativ 1-2 minute).

4. Cover it with a thin layer of clear nail polish. Don't worry about the edges, paint 1-2 millimeters over the edge of the painting. :D
4. Acoperiti-o cu un strat subtire de lac transparent. Nu va ingrijorati cu privire la margini, depasiti-le cu 1-2 milimetrii. :D

5,6,7. Grab a pair of tweezers and, after the nail polish dried, grab one of its corners and gently pull the sticker off the stamp/rubber. 
5,6,7. Dupa ce s-a uscat lacul incolor, prindeti unul dintre colturile abtibildului cu ajutorul unei pensete si dezlipiti-l de stampila/radiera.

8. Apply a top coat on your nail (if you used nail polish on it, like I did, be sure it's dry) and put the sticker on the nail, pressing gently, to remove any air particles from under it. Afterwards, seal it with another layer of top coat and you're done! ^_^
8. Aplicati un strat de top coat pe unghie (daca e vopsita, asteptati ca lacul de unghii sa fie complet uscat) si pueti abtibildul pe unghie, apasand usor, pentru ca toate partiulele de aer sa iasa de sub el. Apoi, sigilati-l cu inca un strat de top coat si sunteti gata! ^_^


I hope you liked my tutorial! If you have any questions, please post them in the comment section or on our facebook page, Sophie & Laula's Nail Art Dreamland! ^_^
Sper ca v-a placut tutorialul! Daca aveti intrebari, va rog sa le postati in sectiunea de comentarii sau pe pagina noastra de facebook, Sophie & Laula's Nail Art Dreamland! ^_^

Cupcakes!

I recently bought some acrylic paint and some new brushes and I wanted to try them on something colorful and bright so I could really see how they are. My best option was a manicure I've been wanting to do for quite a while (October) and didn't get the chance... So.. I did it now. Twice. :D
It's up to you to choose which you prefer and why not... try it yourself... :)
Enjoy! ^_^
