Marilyn Monore

Hello Nail Surfers.

.Hows your weekend going so far?  Mine is going pretty good. :)  I am having loads of fun making all these mani's.. I have alot to still with you guys. This particular Mani I loved so much. I hated to take it off. I usually don't do the same mani 2X ,but with all my plates and certain images I will defiantly do it again and hopefully the 2ed time around it can last longer than a day or so.  

SURFS UP....

Originally I had planned with black film strip stamp,

and stamping Marilyn in a beige glitter.

I didn't take a picture with her on here but it was hard to really see her,

so I took all this off and went back to the drawing board.

And now she is visible. I reversed the colors and it worked great.

The white is Funky Fingers

CG Fast Track for the film strips

sinful Blk for Monroe

Plates can be found here

I am really impressed with how great My Online Shop/Fab ur Nails

plates work. I am hooked with her plates.She has sooo many new and unique images.

Whats your Favorite mani that you have done and will redo again?

Alert..New Set Coming SOON!!!

Hey Nail Surfers,

Have you heard? Cheeky has shown all their new plates for the Summer Set Collection! All of them..

Which means I can now post 2 mani's I did ahead of time for 2 plates. :) I'll post them here soon.

Heck I'll just post them now with Cheeky plate preview. :)

SURFS UP....

The Full set!

Now the mani's I made.

CH 33

A closer view.

.Now keep in mind I'm working with just a sample set.

Cheeky has fixed all the kinks out already:)

Crisper images and bigger images too :)

CH 38

Sharks,Blowfish,Dolphins,Seashells with Sand,

Seahorse and a Crab.

A Closer View.

As you can see the sample set does not fit my nails great,

plus the image has a curve for french tip but that forces me to have my 

art face me and I prefer it going outwards. So I lost a few cm of the image.

BUT... Cheeky is making the images bigger :) so I can't wait to use these all again.

Which is your Favorite plate?

Are you planning on adding this set to your collection?

Fox Racing Nails

Hello Nail Surfers.   I did this Mani earlier this week. And I loved how it turned out. Fox is a name brand for racing equipment. Dirt bikes,4 wheelers,trick bikes etc..They sell protective gear and fashion gear.

I wore my Fox top with this Mani. Its black with the fox 1/2 white 1/2 pink. It totally matched my nails :)

SURFS UP....

I used Fab Ur Nails Plates. Which is found here

She has soo many different designs and they are unique too.

Nail Polish Buys

Hello Nail Surfers.. Today's post is a polish trip I made recently .

****Surfers Beware.**** High Tide . (heavy pics)

SURFS UP

These came from Five Below.

This white only needs 1 coat. Yep 1 coat,no streaking either.

And they work GREAT for stamping.

Again Five below.

Insta-Dri works Great also for stamping.

Top of double bottle.

They do have small brushes.

But for stamping these are GREAT

Sally's Trip

I still managed to buy doubles.Even with them all in 1 basket..

The I.O.U. they owed me. FREE.

Sally's (same trip as above. Do you spot the doubles? there's 2)

I have found that most of China Glaze stamps very well. And as a base they dry real fast.

I have been using mainly CG lately. Due to these reasons.

Now I do have 900 bottles of all brands mixed that I need to start using more.

I have most in a Helmer cabinet. I thought it was a great idea at the time.

If I am not seeing a color handy I dread looking through the dark drawer. (helmer)

CANDY NAILS

Hello Nail Surfers :) Tonight I did a candy Mani. I kept it simple but still added some spark.

SURFS UP!

I used MJ3 plate &Fun 2 plate

which both can be found here

My cuticles are not the greatest :(

And my pointer finger is so wide :(

But hey! ..I try & manage.

Beach House View

Hello Nail Surfers :)

Hope you all had a great weekend. It was a hot one here.

Did any of you make it to Sally's for there sale?

I had to go anyways because they owed me 5 bottles of Seche Vite  top coat. All 5 for free.

And than of course I start looking and my basket is getting heavier..lol 

Anyways surfers, I did a Mani last night using my Bundle Monster set. It was working out all great till my green polishes would not show bold enough on my nails. So this morning I took my pictures still than took my Mani off and started over using a different color as my base.

SURFS UP

I used BM 309 &318 for stamping

polish I used China Glaze,Funky Fingers,Konad green &Black Sinful

Which Mani do you like best?

I really wanted Pic#1 base color and pic#2 art. But stamping polishes were not behaving well.

Good Afternoon Nail Surfers.  Are you ready to catch the next big wave? 

 Today's Mani I used Fab ur Nails image plates. These plates work flawless every time. And they actually cover my wide and long nails :) 

Lots of choices to choose from even on 1 plate.There many plates to her collection and they are updated regularly too. Check her collection out Here

Black Tie Golf Tournament

Hello Nail Surfs :)
                              Today's Mani I wanted to test out as many images from a Cheeky Plate and still have a descent Mani in the end.I ended up using 2 plates. Cheeky has announced they are making there full nail images bigger and the plates bigger also. Although the set has not been released yet I am just as excited as the rest of you. My sample set is just a sample. I still need the final set. And when you surfers can see this whole set you will like it Alot!.. It is so different from the other company's sets and different from Cheeky 2012 set too.

SURFS UP

My honest opinion on this set is that there is something for everyone.

Some of the images I may never use,BUT those are very few.

I have many favs from this set and can't wait to have a perfect set.

What are your thoughts or opinions on this newest set so far?

Wild Animal or Stained Glass?

Good evening Nail Surfers, hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I have been busy with projects around the house.Nothing fun or exciting to blog about. I did however made the time to sneak in a new Mani :)

Would you call this Wild Animal or Stained Glass?
Im leaning towards Stained Glass.

SURFS UP

                                                              SURFS UP !!!

                                     I used China Glaze "Kalahari Kiss" as a base

                                            Along with Sinful Black

Mirror Mirror On the Wall

It's Friday :) yah.. Whether your going to the beach or hanging with friends tonight I have the perfect fast mani with zero drying time.

Hello Nail Surfers today's Mani I used Cheeky's Nail Foils. They are very easy to apply and no need for a top coat either.

SURF"S UP....

There's 16 nail foils per pack.

* VERY IMPORTANT* When filing these only go in the downward motion.

The curve fits really good in the cuticle area. 

Here you can see that some of these don't actually fit my wide nails.

As you can see I applied these over a Mani I was about to remove. 

And was long enough for my nails but ,just not wide enough.

It takes maybe 10 minutes to apply and file.

Now that's a fast Mani.

I loved how there was an accent nail foil also.

The mirror affect Mani!

You can purchase these Nail foil stickers  Here

They also sell them for toes too.

Anchors Away !

Hello Nail Surfers! ...Tonight I did a Mani using Cheeky's plates..Did you see all the plates they actually carry on Amazon? OMG. She has Alot of plates. XL,(Jumbo) and Mega plates. They have a holiday one too. A nice variety and different from Bundle Monster,Mash and Konad too.

Surf's  up

I used one coat (yes 1 coat) of Funky Fingers Gesso

And 2 coats of China Glaze Man Hunt

NAIL SURFING

Hello Nail Surfers :)

                              We all love to look at nail pictures whether its at the art or the polish color. 

I myself have surfed the internet and bookmark nail blogs to read and look at pictures. So technically I am a Nail Surfer. I still look at other blogs and I am now starting to be a follower. I always thought I had to have a blog to follow, but you don't. :) 

   I am still trying to figure all this blogging still and have lots of ideas to decorate my page , but i have not figured that part out yet..

  How many times have you gone to the store and just had to walk pass the nail polish display just to make sure nothing new has been released and snuck passed you. I do even at the grocery store. I have some newer nail polishes that I have picked up recently. I will take pictures tomorrow and share. 

 Till then Happy Nail Surfing :)

A mission terminated to soon

Hello nail lovers ! A mission terminated to soon is in regards to a beloved brother in law that has just passed a way in a tragic way. At the age of 43 his mission has ended. He had so many plans ahead for himself. He was a great guy and will always be remembered,loved and missed. R.i.P Tom M.

         I kept my Mani simple and clean..I didn't want anything flashy.

                                      I used China Glaze" Elephant Walk"

                                And for stamping I used Sinful Black
