Challenge Day 13 - Animal Print



Since I have been neglecting my blog I figured I should have a second post for today. For todays challenge Animal Print I decided to go with a snake skin print. I love snakes and if it was up to me I would own one, but unfortunately I don't have the time and I don't think Allan would appreciate having a snake in the house with a 3 year old. Just a little side story, I used to have a childhood friend who lived right behind my parents house, our backyards were facing each other. She was the same age as me and we would always go outside and play. Well her and her mother rented that house and sometimes had roommates and one of her roommates was a guy who had a snake collection. We would be in the garage holding and petting the snakes it was really awsome to be able to handle snakes at such a young age I think I was like 8 years old. I'm happy I did otherwise I might have a phobia of snakes just like my mom, instead I have a huge phobia of spiders. Anyways back to the mani, for this I used 1 coat of Sinful Colors Black on Black for my base, I stamped using A-England Saint George and China Glaze GR8 with Bundle Monster image plate BM-215. I really enjoyed this challenge and absolutely adored how it came out and beware this post is picture heavy!

And here is a swatch of the beautiful A-England Saint George.

I hope this post will make up for my absence. Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Teal Tuesdays - Animal Print

The challenge in the Teal Tuesday group is Animal Print, so I decided I wanted to do zebra stripes. For this challenge I used Sally Hansen The Real Teal for my base and for the stamping I used Sinful Colors Innocent with Konad image plate m57. As for my ring finger I just reversed the colors. So here's my bright colored zebra!

On a side note: Wow the day has only started and I have already had a huge surprise. I got to work pretty early so I was just browsing through the newspaper "The Seattle Times" and to my surprise there was a huge picture of two girls I knew. They were in the paper promoting their concerts. Now let me give you some background on how I know them, I used to live with a bunch of friends and one of them started up a band (Dax) and Cat was in the band as the main vocalist with Stas on occasion being backup vocalist. The band didn't stay together due to school work and other things but I am really happy to see Cat & Stas make it. Their group is called THEEsatisfaction, you should totally check them out if like that old school hip hop vibe. So congrats Cat & Stas!
