Week 16- Dotticure Mani

A little late but here is my week 16 Dotticure for the challenge. Here's my Bumble Bee Mani!

I have been working on my scrap booking a lot lately and there is a new baby boy in the family so I haven't found my time for blogging lately, forgive :) I have, though, had my nails painted the whole time. Not all of them were all that exciting though. I do have some past manis to share if I can just make the time and sit down to post them! I will...and soon.

The yellow was Sinful Colors 'Unicorn' and this is my first time ever to wear yellow polish. The formula was crazy sheer and took three heavy coats to opacity. I NEVER use three coats!! It took forever to apply and to dry :P and to top that off when I applied my Seche Vite it pulled like crazy ruining the mani! Sooo.... I had to put on ANOTHER coat and top it with Orly's 'In A Snap' which worked fine. I made my own decals with the bees and free handed the dots with my dotting tool.

This mani was a bit of a PITA but I guess I'm still glad I tried it. I have seen bees and butterfly manis for the past year and always wanted to try them.

I like the larger bumble bee on my thumb the best, too bad I got a bubble in it :P

Spring Mani Part 2

I thought I would spend the last half hour of the last day of the week a slip in one more Spring mani for the challenge :D

The base is Sinful Colors 'Cinderella' topped with Finger Paints 'Shimmering Top Coat' and then a little Color Club 'Covered in Diamonds' on the accent nail. Then for the plaid I used Pure Ice 'Wild Thing', SH 'Bubblegum Pink', and Kiss white nail art stripper polish.

I did this without a test and I was tired so forgive the little shakies ;D

I kinda like this one. I may have to wear it a day or two which means that I wont have my 'Dotticure' posted till Monday or Tuesday.

Finally a tiny bit of the pink shimmer shines through!

Cinderella Mani with Bling!

When I first applied Cinderella I thought it looked like a baby blue with Finger Paints 'Shimmering Top Coat' on it. Well, when the iridescent pink faded a little I thought I would put some back in it....and then some! My camera just can't do this mani justice ;( I had to go out of focus to pick up even a little of the pink shimmer but let me tell you ladies---if you have these two polishes PUT 'EM TOGETHER! You wont regret it. I couldn't stop looking at my nails for three days.

Another blurry shot to show the dense pink shimmer.

Then I added some Color Club 'Covered in Diamonds' to the accent finger. I think it looks like that iridescent Easter grass :D Again, the camera did not give this mani any help but, trust me, it's a winner.
