I nailed it! ;)

Wah...wah...wah....

It's a good day for a bad pun! Because it's FRIDAY!

So I joined Pinterest around January of this year (it keeps weird time...it shows I have pins from 37 weeks ago so I'm guesstimating here). Anyway...I remember spending Winter days at work pinning things during my downtime while I worked at HP. One of the trends I stumbled upon is interesting nails.

I didn't do anything with it, though, because I have sad, sad nails. Short and brittle...ALWAYS have been. No amount of vitamins make a difference. It's all good though, because I have pretty hair ;) and you can't have it all.

A few months later in April I posted a funky rainbow pattern I did on my nails one day when I was bored. Still I figured that was the coolest I could do. Until I found THIS POST. Seriously, isn't she brilliant?

I knew immediately I wanted to try it! But not just with anything. With my own products! Now I've been designing for almost 6 years with my sister Tabatha as Bella Gypsy Designs and...not to brag or anything...but papers are our forte. I printed out some Bella Gypsy papers and got ready to try my hand at it. Surprisingly enough, it worked with no trouble!

It totally blows my mind that I can open up Photoshop and design any little thing my heart desires and then apply it to my nails...very little cost and very little skill involved :P

Now, I can't share the kit yet *teehee* because it's not being released until next Friday...but it's called Autumn Pop and it's cuuute! I can tell you though, that I did Naomi's nails with papers from our kit Adorabibble.

No picture of Naomi's nails because in the 4 hours between me doing her nails and getting the camera out to photograph them, she had chipped and chewed on them. Bless her heart, she's such a girly girl and loves to get her nails done but she demolishes them quickly!

Here are my nails courtesy of Autumn Pop!

I used a fun plaid paper for my thumbs, and alternated stripes and flowers for my other nails...and of course covered with a glittery top coat! It turned out SO cute and I've already gotten a ton of compliments! I can totally see myself changing this out often...

For now though...I'm gonna stick with this!
