Silver NOTD

So, after my freehand success on the 4th, I thought I'd do it again ... and I did a pretty good job on the actual nail art, but I ended up not too pleased with my color choices. The silver base - Sally Hansen Celeb City - was so shiny it made it difficult to see the art - done with China Glaze QT & 2Nite - except in indirect light or shade. Chalk it up to another learning experience:


Also, 2 more people think I'm adorable!


I got the Adorable Blog Award from Lacquer Laine & Nailz-in-Aus =) The rules for this award are:

Keeping it short but hopefully sweet, I have just one nominee today: Tartofraises : Nail Art sur Ongles Naturels This amazing nail art blog is in french but she does provide translations & the part I love the most is she has a ton of tutorial VIDEOS on her blog! She makes it all looks so easy, I now have a lot more designs I want to try =) I found this blog actually because she found me first & after I saw her nails I was quick to add her to my blogroll - which I of course encourage you all to browse at your leisure =)

I promise the Helmer pics are coming soon. Maybe even tonight if I can get my butt in gear, but don't hold me to that too strictly LOL. Thanks for reading.
