Cherish @ My Cup of Tea
Hi guys, 
I'm celebrating a day late so I did my mani today and will be going out and celebrating Cinco de Mayo tomorrow night!  But I just had to share this one with you guys.  I just love the way that it turned out. 


 I used BM219 for the tips with Green Konad special polish.
I used BM06 for the peppers with Red Konad special polish. 

I never ever thought I would use the peppers and I was flipping through my album of plates and saw it and was like "OMG, perfect!!  I won't ever use this plate again!"  So I didn't clean it after the last time I used it.  Oh shush, you know you do it too!  LOL!  

Does anyone else have Cinco de Mayo plans???

Just wanted to post a real quick mani and share a contest from Born Pretty Store.
All I have to do is mention the contest here on my blog:

 3 lucky people will win ALL ten of these polishes.  Please oh please let it be me!! I never win anything!!

Here's that awesome mani:


I did these to match one of my favorite summer dresses.  If I actually get the opportunity to wear it tomorrow, I'll take a comparison picture!
 
I used China Glaze First Mate to stamp with plate BM217!!!

What do you guys think??

Hi guys, 
I had a wonderful weekend and now I'm back.  I arrived back home from visiting a great friend to find two blog awards!  
The first is the Kreativ Blogger Award from Karin!!

For this award I must provide 10 random facts about myself and pass it along to 10 other blogger's.
1♥ I am utterly obsessed with nail stamping (Konad, Fauxnad, etc.)!!
2♥ I've only been in love once, I miss the feeling.
3♥ I have wonderful friends, without whom I'd be a hot mess.

Without further ado:  

Here is the newest mani:
 I stamped over acrylics.  I used Black on Black by Sinful Colors and Bundle Monster's new plate BM219!  I absolutely love how these turned out!!!

Alrighty, I'm not normally one to get my nails done too often.  I enjoy doing it myself.  But every once in a while I want to be pampered.  In this case, my best friend just got her nail technician license and needed practice.  She did some pink & white acrylics for me.  I added the glitter to the tips and of course two coats of Seche Vite!!
 Didn't she do such a great job?  She also doesn't use a drill or electric file.  This is all by hand.  You rock, Dahianna.  I love you!

I got my Bundle Monster plates yesterday too!!!  After I get tired of the simplicity of these nails I will experiment with them. For now, here is a pic!
It's ok to be jealous!

Speaking of jealous!  I hit the Clearance racks at Claire's today and got 9 pairs of earrings, a necklace, and an eyeliner set.  For $10.  Here is my SCORE!
I'm so stoked to set out my outfits for the week and match up my jewelry!!!
