Can you spy a few designs we haven't seen yet? Hehe.
We've also been told that they will have a backing similar to actual Konad plates, and the price will be $21.99 for the set of 25 plates! How exciting, right?
Ok, here is the newspaper nails I promised.
I certainly can't take credit for this design, I did bite it from Starving Nail Addict. I think I've come up with my own method, which seems simpler.
STEP 1: Paint a base color, I chose NYC 207.
STEP 2: Cut newspaper strips.
STEP 3: Soak Cottonball with rubbing alcohol.
STEP 4: Lay newspaper on cottonball.
STEP 5: Press firmly onto nail, hold 15 seconds, remove.
STEP 6: Apply topcoat, I of course love SECHE VITE.
I used my China Glaze Ruby Pumps to stamp the lips on my thumb and ring fingers from Bundle Monster plate BM02.

For some reason I rarely do purple manicures, which is strange seeing as how its my favorite color. This time purple on lavender using my H9 plate from Chez-Delaney.
I like how this turned out. One step above subtle!
Yup, you guessed it...its another sneak peek from the *NEW* Bundle Monster. I got my tip from Prettyfulz. SHE even sent me a comment this time! I cannot wait for this set to be released!!!

Here are the new plates! They finally arrived. The great net pattern used in my lace is from the far left plate. Below I will show testing of some of my favorite designs. I couldn't help but to test them out right away!
The reason that I got these plates so cheap was because they said some of the engravings weren't deep enough. I had no issues. They're all great!!!

((In case no one's noticed, I like to take some of my nail pictures in the car as the lighting is the best. That's my steering wheel. The second best place is at work in the kitchen. It's just the lighting...Daylight is always best.
So, here is a new mani, with short nails. I don't mind the length too much though. At least they're all even!
I know this one is a bit busy and that wasn't my intention. Although I still kinda like it anyways. The picture really does this manicure no justice. This was shot 1 of 56 and was the best I could get.
The base is Sinful Colors "I Love You" {{Three coats}}
Over top of that I applied Sinful Colors "Frenzy" {{New buy, look back}}
Then I stamped L.A. Colors in Silver using my Bundle Monster BM16 plate.
I'd really like to know everyone's HONEST opinions on this one. I didn't like it at first, but it realllly sparkles in the daylight.

Alrighty folks, I got another Spring time manicure for ya. I really like how this one turned out though!!!
The base color is "Unicorn" by Sinful Colors.
The dots are "Innocent" by Sinful Colors.
For the dots I used Bundle Monster BM19.
Let me know what you think!!

Kirsten and Nicole over at Glitta Gloves are giving away SIX crackle polishes!!!
Wow! I hope I win! Or at least someone that learns from this giveaway here. I've been drooling over crackle polishes and just can't decide on what color to get. This makes it easy!
Good Luck, ya'll!!

I decided to buy a few cheap Fauxnad plates from Chez Delaney. Here they are and what design made me decide to purchase them.
I bought this one because of the clouds and criss cross pattern. Oh, so many ideas!!!
I bought this one because I love every single design on it...Other than the weird paisley looking flower.
If you know me, you know I bought this one for the leopard print! But I also LOVE the zebra heart and the bunny! With Easter coming up, I thought this one will make some adorable manis!
I bought this one solely for the tooth, cause I think it'll be cute to wear to the dentist. I also love the dove and the ladybugs!
With shipping and tax I only paid $27 for these four!

Now for the BIG news, are you ready?
Bundle Monster is coming out with a second line of plates!! EEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! There's more NEWS! There will be 25 instead of the 21. AND they've listened to our constructive criticism and the full nail designs will be a bit larger!
And without further adieu, here is a sneak peek!
How adorable! I love the star tips, the piano keys and the swan! I cannot wait for more sneak peeks and for the set to finally come out. I don't know what the price will be yet, but I'm hoping they stay as affordable as the first set! We are looking at about three more weeks until they are released! I know, I know.....EXCITING! I will be purchasing them as soon as they are released!

I have a friend that is a nail tech and she always gives me guff for buying cheap polishes, but you know, if you've got Seche Vite it turns ANY polish into magic! Besides if you expand your horizons there are so many more color options.
And here is what I did today:
The base is NYC in Sidewalkers
The chain design is in Sinful Colors Black on Black
The plate that I used for this design is Bundle Monster BM12.
Please, let me know what you think. Comments are ALWAYS welcome!
