Happy Stinkin Monday xoxo

Happy stinkin Monday peeps!

Who am i - rithika!!
What do i hate - Mondays!!


Now that we've established that let me elaborate!? Don't i always? It's back to full fledged work for me starting today, after enjoying countless *okay* three weekends of lazing around doing nothing using the fact that I've had surgery to the fullest. Heck when we were going to my aunts place this last extended weekend *i.e Wednesday through Sunday say woot!* Heck! my mom even considered pushing me into the handicapped compartment in the train because well maybe i qualify and its less crowded. Jeez that's not so funny in writing. No offence intended, besides i am kinda mentally challenged. Right?  *awkward*

Umm okay then on to the mani i should  have posted ages ago and well i should be ashamed Moore let me co-host and i missed not one but two posts even though they are done. Fml. That website has some cra-azy stuff there though. Go have a looksie. 

So here is my first post for The Girly Girl Challenge - Think Pink. I am a total girly girl and I'd like a pink unicorn that burps butterflies and...well you get the drift doncha? 


 


I started with Avon Speed dry+ Fusion a frosty light pink with shimmer in it. Its quite opaque in one coat but i don't think it would stamp well because its pretty light.






I used two coats and then went stamp crazy using Konad M-83 and Konad special red. 





I had a tough time getting the images to transfer onto the stamp but that's probably me because it was okay after a bazillion attempts .




Also, i did this on my right hand too cause i wanted to wear this to work on 1st April and i managed to do a better job on my right hand. weird.


hello you widdle weird right hand pose :D

What else is girlie lets see..
 pink check

How is the day treating ya? Don't let Monday get in the way of them drinks lol.

Life is like a joint...

Life is like a joint indeed! Sometimes you need a good kick to make you happy :). Yes i came up with this gem all by myself and no i was not high. 

So I've been off the grid lately this was not intentional all my mani's were done it was just the posting. I guess life just got in the way but I'm here now and we are going to catch up with posts that are ridiculously overdue.

Today's shamelessly late mani is the fourth installation of the Crumpet's Nail Tarts Tri Polish Challenge  it was supposed to be live on the fourth Thursday of March i.e the 28th! Woot! 

  Avon Electric Green, Midnight Plum and Coral Beat

I started with two coats of Avon Electric Green, now the photo for this was taken a few days before i did the manicure so for some reason the colours are different for the before and after! 



It's a lovely green which is slightly runny but two coats makes it opaque. Then i stamped using Konad M-38 and a nameless white polish because my Konad Special Polish - White is running out. This new white was a little sheer though so the image didn't stand out as bright. It wasn't half bad though, see for yourself. 






 see? pwetty <3




There it is! My entry for the Tri Polish Challenge - Day 4. I will be posting all the other manicures in quick succession so hopefully I'll be all caught up real soon! I missed you guys so much, nail polish is really therapeutic for me.

Love,










Have a look at the other awesome Mani's for the challenge:-

Crazy Cat Lady!

Yay i have a nice title today :) As you know I'm doing the Inspired By A Time Period Challenge by Llama Nails and this weeks era is Ancient Egypt. 




What? did anyone think I'm going to get straight to polish without a little jibber-jabber first? Hell to the No! 
It is kinda polish related though, i was super clueless as to what to do for this challenge. I googled and that made it worse then i looked at my stamps and i saw a cat although with a flower on her tail and i thought oh this is Egyptian and well of course it is so i took what i had and ran with it! *not literally*.

So i started with Avon Simply Pretty Glitter Gold and did two coats, now my camera decided to act funny so i took pictures in different places and that causes my fingers to look different, however I do not use colour correct because I'm too poor to afford one! *rather too lazy to look it up*.





It is kinda frosty and needs two coats to not show streaks but its a nice colour that i would've never thought of wearing alone then inspired by google i added blue stripes to my nails using Colorbar Blue Topaz which is super runny, hence not ideal for striping but i make do cause I'm hard-working like that. 
After i did my pinkie i started stiping my ring finger  i wanted that to be the accent with the cat so a quick change in plan and i had two cats :) which i loved btw which makes me wait for it... the Crazy Cat Lady! 

the stamp had a few delicate details and i had to struggle to get it on camera but i did succeed after a bazillion photos were taken! 
Now remember i do not have a striping tool and I was too lazy to cut such fine tape strips so do not cringe at the lines :)







I love it! do you?  i made it better too you know by adding Fairy Dust aka Glitter Polish! 

 look at my cats! :)





ooo shiny!

Isn't this awesome? I actually like what i did which is what this is about anyway! Oh and Happy Holi to all me Indian lovelies out there! :) I'll elaborate on Saturday i have a post planned :)

Here's the picture for the Girly Girl Challenge, it's not what the challenge creator has suggested this is one i found off the net. 





See you soon,










Don't forget to go see what all the other lovely ladies did! :)
