Day 1 of the 31 Day Challenge - Red Nails

I posted a picture of this on Instagram on the 1st. 

I love red, black and white combos so that's what I decided to go with here. The base color is Essie Size Matters. I did a sugar spun technique on the index finger with Milani Black Swift. The middle finger is stamped with Konad White using Pueen plate Pueen15. The ring and pinky fingers both have glitter from Hardy Candy Black Tie Optional and the pinky finger is stamped with the same image from Pueen15. 

I love how this turned out! Especially the pinky. 

Summer Challenge Day 13 - Summer Fete Bunting

What do you see when you do a Google search for Summer Fete? Bunting! Once again, I used tape for the mani but I also added black thread for the bunting cord. The base color is Bikini So Teeny by Essie. Boy, do I love this color!!

I am really excited that my pictures are looking a lot better and not as dark. I bought a new light bulb for my lamp, tweaked my camera settings a bit, and decided to add the watermark to my pictures. What do you think?
