You make my Heart Beat

Base colour for these is "Frostbite" by China Glaze. Along with a heart beat pattern done with foils. The heart on the ring finger failed, but the one on my thumb was a roaring success!
And that's what I did on Christmas Day! Happy Boxing Day!

Tea Rose

Playing with some Nail Foils I purchased from www.dollarnailart.com. This is my first attempt, and I used Tea Rose, and the glue they sent me. I should've photographed these last night, but didn't and so they were utterly
destroyed after I finished work this morning.

Next time I'll use "The Best Glue Ever" and more topcoats, hopefully that will make a difference.

Black Flowers and Sparkle

Base colour is "1020 Poinsettia" by China Glaze. I added some one-stroke hand painted black flowers, and topped them off with generic rhinestones for some added sparkle.
These probably won't survive work this week, but that's what photos are for :)

Carly's Nails

Painted Carly's nails. This was done ages ago. Base colour is "Turned up Turquoise" by China Glaze. That was followed by  a fishnet pattern stamped in blue Konad polish, and then some hand-painted purple flowers.

With Flash

 Tried a different type of french. It's similar to a fishtail braid idea I saw on Tumblr, if I can find it again I'll post a link to the original photo. Colours used are all by Kleancolor. I took it off same day, and am now just wearing "Holly-Day" from China Glaze on my paws.

Colours:
"45 Copper"
"58 Expresso"
"118 Jazz Olive"
