Day 2: Chelcea Flower Show
I decided to participate in the Summer Challenge in the Purple Crumpet Challenge, which lasts all summer. I don't know if I will be able to participate every single day, but I am going to try my hardest to do them all.
Ok, I had my day 1 mani, and right after I painted it I had to use my hands, and it got ruined, so thats why I am starting with day 2. :P
Day 2 is the Chelcea Flower Show. The colors used in this mani are Essie Ole Caliente, Color Club Pucci-licious, Lippmann Almost Paradise, and Wet N Wild Black Creme.

Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge: Inspired by a Book
"Just for the record, the weather today is partly suspicious with chances of betrayal.”
For my choice in the Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge I chose Inspired by a book. My all time favorite author is Chuck Palahniuk(the Author of Fight Club), so of course I am doing one of his books. :)
My inspiration today comes from Diary, which is my favorite book.
"Misty Wilmot has had it. Once a promising young artist, she's drinking too much and working as a waitress in a hotel. Her husband, a contractor, is in a coma after a sucide attempt, an his clients are threating misty with lawsuits over a series of vile messages they've discovered on the walls of houses he remodeled.
Suddenly, Misty's artistic talent returns. Inspired but confused by a burst of creativity, she soon finds herself a pawn in a much larger conspiracy that threatens to cost hundreds of lives. What unfolds is a dark, hilarious story from America's most inventive nihilist, and Palahniuk's most impressive work to date."
This book has some really neat cover art, and i want to show you my nails inspired by it.

Have you read anything by Palahniuk?
What is your favorite book?

Rainbow Fish Nails- Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge
The Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge this week was animal print. well... I didn't want to do the normal cheetah or zeebra print. So I decided on using my Red Angel Plates and the fish scale design on it. This is what I came up with, and it is AWESOME!
Its a Rainbow Fish!
What I used:
Color Club - Cold Metal (from the foiled collection)
Essie - Shine of the Times
Finger Paints - Motley
Finger Paints - Sparkle Top Coat
Finger Paints - Twisted
(*then I added Seche Vite top coat to speed up the process and so I could stamp*)
Red Angel Stamp RA111 with Wet N Wild Black Creme stamped on.
This is what it looked like before the stamp.
And another pic of the Amazing fish scale design. :)
Hope you enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed it as well! :)

Jelly Sammich!
Another Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge! As I said before it was created by Debbie Crumpet(of The Crumpet) and Claire Gallaugher (of Purple Fairy Dust) in a facebook group!
This week's challenge was to do a Jelly Sandwich.
A Jelly Sandwich is when you paint a layer of a jelly/sheer polish, then paint a layer glitter polish, then another coat of jelly polish.
This is my version of a jelly sandwich! I used OPI Too Hot Pink to Handle, which is a sorbet from the Texas collection, with a layer of Color Club Sugar Plum Fairy in between, from the Beyond the Mistletoe Collection.
What do you think?

Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge Most hated polish
A few weeks ago I joined a group on Facebook called the Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge. It was created by Debbie Crumpet(of The Crumpet) and Claire Gallaugher (of Purple Fairy Dust). This week's challenge was to post a pic of your most hated polish.
I hate to admit this, but the polish that is my most hated is China Glaze Lubu Heels. I think that it is too thin, the glitter does not stand out from the black, and it leaves my nails really gritty. Its to the point that I don't even want to put a top coat on because I just automatically remove it after I took this swatch.
I really just don't like this polish...
What do you guys think? what is your most hated polish?
