Yellow & Crackle Animal Print

  1. Start with a base coat.I chose rue beaute' in yellow
  2. Then apply a strip of white crackle down the middle.The white doesn't show as good so black crackle would most likely have a better crackling effect.
  3. Then using your art deco nail stripper in black,make your stripes on the sides.
  4. Then I applied a tad bit orange around the stripes.
  5. Then silver glitter over the crackle.Viola♥

Wow a little too much light!

Peacock Nails

So this is my first attempt at Peacock Nails so please no laughing!This is one nail design that I'm definitely not good at.
In this pic NYC Skyline Blue
I love this shade from Wet n Wild "Caribbean Frost"Oh and I did cheat just a little.I have a feather nail stamper that I used.
I'm not sure,but I believe I need a new camera because most of my pics either come out too dark or too light and/or blurry.It's like I snapped them in a cave or my closet.If anybody could let me know what type of camera they use or what settings are the best please comment.Thanks ;-] and by the way I use a Kodak AF 14 mega pixels.
Here's a different version I tried and failed miserably 
I also added a little bit of green because I thought it was just too plain.
and this one I liked the best

rue beaute! Swatches

I love♥ the bright,vibrant colors from rue beaute' available at Rue21. They also have a matte finish which I like,however when you apply a top clear coat the color really POPS

Love this neon green


This one is Grape and yes it smells grapey
There is no shade listed on this bottle,however it is a very bright orangey/yellow color


No shade on this one either,however you can see it's a mixture of a few different shades of purples & dark pinks.

Colorful Tribal Nails

O.K. so I goofed up a little on the pictures. I accidentally deleted them off my camera before saving them all to my computer,and there was no way I was starting all over.So unfortunately I'm missing the first two or three steps..
Anyways start off with some bright colors including the Art Deco nail art striping brushes which I love for creating any type of lines.You can find these for a buck and they come in many different shades.Then using my black art deco brush I placed X's and the horizontal lines on my nails.Then I filled in the areas with the color,saving my dots and lines till the end.Viola♥Tribal Nails
