Mardi Gras Nails

Hi fellow Konaddicts!  It has been a little bit since I have been able to blog a design of mine.  I actually did these a couple weeks ago and thought they would be perrfect for today.  I wanted to try to make time to squeeze them in before the close of the day... sorry not a more detailed tutorial.  Forgot to take pics of the polishes. 
These are the steps, just paint the base coat then sponge off the tips of the second coat.  I added a gold stamp from one of the new plates... m81

wish i could blog more....got to go to bed for now.  But tomorrow on my mac (I'm on my Dino laptop) I have some pics my sister did of her mardi gras nails...very cool- also using a new plate.

  
                                          
 and the polishes she used.  You can see she used the greenish color and the plum color on the full nail plate.  makes it look like 2 separate color applications, but it's done in one step!  Great with this nail plate because of the separation betwen the designs.  Great job "Proud Sissy"

Crystal Caviar Cuticles

Working with Caviar beads is a little challenging.  You need enough gel under them to help them stick, but not so much that they drown and ...
