31 Days of Manis: Day 27, Inspired By Artwork

My boyfriend suggested that I use Andy Warhol as the inspiration for my "artwork mani." I googled his body of work to see what I could possibly replicate and "Flowers" seemed easy enough.

 

I used Wet n Wild Black Creme as the base. For the grass stamped an image from MASH plate M64 with Barielle Polished Princess and then "scratched" on a custom mix of one part Orly Enchanted Forest and one part Ulta Sun-Sational with a dotting tool. 

I also used a dotting tool to create the flowers. The pink is Maybelline Pink Passion, the yellow is American Apparel Manilla, the orange is NYC Times Square Tangerine Creme, and the darker pink flower is a mix of Maybelline Pink Passion, NYC Times Square Tangerine Creme, and Essie Silken Cord.

I'm pretty pleased with the way it turned out. Stay tuned for "Flag Day" tomorrow.

31 Days of Manis: Day 23, Inspired By A Movie

It's Pink Wednesday, so of course my 'inspired by a movie' nails are dedicated to the official Pink Wednesday movie "Mean Girls!"

I was so excited to fit a Pink Wednesday mani into this challenge. The base color is Sinful Colors Beautiful Girl. The stamping on the top and bottom was done with American Apparel Hassid. The black and white "Burn Book" emblem was created with black and white nail art paints I bought from B-F Beauties Factory. For the lip stamp I used Maybelline Sultry Siren.

L and Kisten are on a break from the challenge until after the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, but  Katherine is still going strong so go check out her movie nails. Tomorrow's challenge calls for a mani inspired by a book.
