DO NOT EAT THE PISTACHIO ICECREAM

Anyways. The second part of the Gluttony prompt calls for painting something that makes your stomach growl, and nothing does that for me more than sushi! Seriously, I will eat sushi anywhere, anytime. Best food in the world. I would eat exclusively at Kona Grille or Ra if I could.


I'm really going to need a sushi fix in the next couple of days now! There's no ignoring it. From index to pinky are as follows: California Roll, Shrimp Sushi, Tuna Roll, and Salmon Sushi. Not featured is Crab Crunch or the Vegas Roll (which is to diiieee for!).

I used:
Clair's Black Nail Art Pen
NYC French Tip White
Revlon Infamous
Revlon Posh
Essie Tart Deco
Revlon Red


What makes your stomach growl?

If She Doesn't Scare You, No Evil Thing Will

For the sake of getting caught up, I'm breaking my usual one-post-a-day limit.


This was my second attempt at a sugar spun mani, my first looked like an axe-murder  scene. The colors I choose reminded me of Cruella Deville, hence the post title :)


I used:
NYC French Tip White
Maybelline Onyx Rush
Revlon Red


I really like the sugar spun technique, it's interesting. I think next time though I'll have to mix up more "sugar" for my last to nails so they don't look so faltering.

Line Games

So I'm waaay behind on the 7 Deadly Sins Challenge (thanks AP), but I still want to complete each prompt, even if I can't put it into the inlinkz. So here is part two of Lust!


This manicure called for "letting your body talk". Usually my body "talking" means it's lunch time, so I decided that it's meant to mean to just go with whatever strikes your fancy. I picked the purple since it's my best friend's favorite color and Cher Lloyd's song Oath was playing, the black striper was sitting on my desk so I just went with that, then I thought, "Glitter makes pretty much everything awesome," so that happened too. I rather like the result, I should do stuff randomly more often.

I used:
Sally Hansen Lacy Lilac
Clair's Black Striper
Stripe Rite Silver Glitter Striper


Oh yeah, how has your guy's Mothers Day gone? My Mom had to work today so we're celebrating tonight when she gets home. My brother and I made a wine bottle candle for her. We used the string/acetone/fire/ice water method to cut the bottle, and I double boiled old candles for the wax. The results were quite awesome, and we didn't maim ourselves/set anything on fire. Yeah science!

Pin Flowers

You guy's must think I'm crazy with all these challenges I'm participating in, the Time Periods Challenge, my challenge, and now this 7 Deadly Sins Challenge. Honestly these have really helped me out inspiration wise, my creative juice has been sucked up by art class. My AP Exam is next Friday, and I still have around 10 pieces to complete. Yay. So I probably won't be posting much except for the 7 Sins and Around the World (Time Periods has a bigger time slot to enter).


For the first week we focus on lust, and the first prompt is to do something you have wanted to do sooo badly. I've always wanted to do that vintage/flower/pinstripe look, so I took this opportunity to try it. What's really funny is that Kelsie from Kelsie's Nail Files seems to have had the same craving at the same time I did xD. I guess theres a bug going around. You can see her sweet manicure here.


I used:
Essie In the Cab-ana (which still refuses to properly photograph, I will tame you one day!)
Essie Tart Deco
NYC French Tip White
Revlon Red 
Revlon Posh
