STAR SPANGLED BANNER

This is a custom mix of all different glitters that I had. I also put a glitter on the nail beds. As you can tell I am having a lot of fun doing flags on nails. It's just too cute not to. I can't help myself!

I made this flag using acrylic and painting the white stripes on. The stars I purchased from dollar nail art and mixed them with clear acrylic.

You can't go wrong with fimo clay dots. They are from oaktreedollshouseminiatures.com
I always love to mix it up by doing the ring finger just a little different. It's unexpected fun!

This is a marbling technique that I learned at a young nails class. This is acrylic. All of the colors are from young nails. I painted the silver stars and red dots with polish.

This is my favorite black called nebula. I added 3d flowers with acrylic in opposite colors.

This is just me having fun with some super cute colors purple and black!

This is opi gel polish in one of their newest colors Kyoto Pearl. I painted a cheetah print with my migi nail art pens.

PATRIOTIC

Everytime I use the fimo clay dots from oaktreedollshouseminiatures.com the nails turn out so cute so I had to incorporate them into the 4th of July theme. I created the flag on the ring fingers with acrylic :)

This is OPI gel polish in Big Apple Red. I hand painted the design.

4th of July nails! I mixed this confetti with stuff I purchased from dollarnailart.com. The white stars are confetti from Zurchers party store.

This is a light blue art glitter called Mystery. I added fimo clay flowers from kennickkreations.com.

These nails have 3 different colors of pink with silver stars.

4th of July and Many More

I just have to say this is an amazing client of mine. She thinks she drives me crazy but the truth is I love crazy! She is awesome because she makes me think out of the box and pushes me to be more creative and keep learning. This is the exact reason why I love my job so much. It would be so boring if I never had to use my brain. So thanks to this client and all of my other amazing clients! You're the best!

These are some little diamonds that I purchased from dollarnailart.com. The background silver is hologram from young nails.

This is a twisted version of 4th of July nails. Love these!

My new favorite fimo clay flowers.

More 4th of July nails. The white stars are made with an impression tool from youngnails.com.

The next two sets of nails are of amazing clients of mine. They ran a 188 mile relay race called the ragnar. They both wanted nails that went with their teams colors. I wanted them to both look different though.


This is me just adding a little spice on a regular fill on a client.

This is gel polish I did on my sisters nails and toes for her upcoming trip to disneyworld. Have fun!

This is opi gel polish in bogota blackberry. I added 3d stars and painted some little fireworks and accents.

This is a real dried flower on the ring finger.

This is a fimo clay lily from oaktreedollshouseminiatures.com. They are sliced super thin so they are easy to work with.
