I’m feeling a little sad that I ended up not participating in Stamping Saturdays with a new manicure, but I just haven’t been feeling up to blogging for the last few weeks which explains my rather sporadic posting especially this week. I got a burst of energy and started to work on a stamped look today, but I ended up not taking pictures of the end result because I smeared the stamp pretty badly when I used a matte top coat before using Seche Vite. Anyway, this is what my base looked like before I ruined it with my crappy stamping which I will not be showing you:
I’ve previously using this watercolor technique with another manicure and I loved the end result, but unfortunately I rushed the process and ended up ruining the whole thing. Oh well!
Sooooooo…I hope that I can get back into blogging soon because I miss chatting with you guys. I have some gorgeous KBShimmer polishes to share with you guys and some fun Salon Perfect polishes and nail art items for the 4th of July as well. As you can tell, I have changed my nail shape again so I hope to get a little more length soon. I’m sure that this is just a temporary hiatus because I will miss it too much if I stay away. Thank you so much for continuing to stop by. Talk to you soon!
Love the effect on the nails you got. I know what you mean, sometimes I rush and ruin a manicure I was excited about too.

I missed out on Stamping Saturday too, we were on our summer cottage and then got the news that a family member passed away. The last few days has been a blur but I hope I’ll get back to posting soon since It’s something I enjoy and it gives me something else to think about…

Cynthia,
You created a beautiful soft base. Looking forward for your Stamping Saturday series to return. 🙂
Oh I hate when that happens. Having a great mani going on and then messing it up with the last step. I love how pretty your watercolor base looks. Really loving the nail shape you have, it looks great on you. I want to try this but I have such tiny nail beds I need all the nail I can get. And I am reluctant to get rid of any free edge.
Well, your base looks perfect! I am thinking of Easter eggs, for some reason. Maybe I just want chocolate? 😉
Those sheer tints are seriously to die for! I seriously am in love with the end look!
I love it!! But I know how critical I am when it comes to my nails… but really it looks good!
Think of this as your summer hiatus. 🙂 We will be here when you come back!
