With Valentine's Day approaching the lovely ladies in PolishAholic's Anonymous partook in a secret valentine(kinda like secret santa, but for valentines day!) I decided to partake in it this time, and my secret valentine surprised me soooooooooooo much!
My Valentine was Erin G (also known for her polishes: Nostalgic Nail Lacquers, visit her Etsy Shop here!) and It was nothing short of amazing!
I received Butter London the Black Knight- One of my MAJOR Lemmings, and now it is my very first Butter London!
I also Received One of her polishes: Rio from Nostalgic Nail Lacquer. And it is just gorgeous.
I am so happy that I got to partake in this Secret Valentine, and I plan to do more of them in the future. It was so exciting!

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.

Cheeky Image Plates *Pic heavy*
A few days ago someone in the Adventures in Stamping group pointed out these awesome image plates on Amazon, and clicked the link. The images were adorable, and the price wasn't to beat, so I jumped right in and ordered them.
Unfortunately they are out of stock right now, but hopefully they will be back in stock again soon. This is the link to Amazon here.
I'm going to start with info about the plates and questions people ask, and then show pictures of all of the individual plates, so hopefully it will help someone out!
First off, these plates have a backing. So that means you won't get cut like the Red Angel or Shaney plates. I really like that it has this.
Here is a comparison of the size of the images compared to a Konad, Red Angel, and the two different sized images on their plates. Some of tthe images are smaller than others, but it's not a huge difference. I still have trouble covering the whole nail though.
Now on to the Image plates.
There are 26 image plates in the set. These pictures aren't in order for some reason, but they skip a few numbers anyway. here they are:
