Hi guys!

Consider me the Easter Bunny.

OMG! I feel like it's been near forever since I did Digit-al Dozen week. First I had the NAGG challenge and skipped a month, then I got sick and had to skip another! Talk about slack! But now I'm back on track for our Texture Week! So excited, as you know I love some texture, and with the exception of one day, this week is full of awesome textured polishes!

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go - Day 24 - Abstract

Hey guys!
You might remember I tried my hand at a Pop Art mani once before, with what I would consider seriously lackluster results, I basically hated it. But this one today, well I loves this one.
I actually did this mani as a tutorial for my monthly series with Pure Nail Lacquer!
So you can see that video at the end of this post too!

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go - Day 10 - Night Sky

Todays prompt for the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go Challenge is Night Sky.
I toyed with ideas of space nails, stars, darkness, but in the end I opted for a sunset type of design. I do love it in theory but my gradient could definitely use some improving I think.

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go Day 7 - Primary

Hey hey hey!
So today marks the last day of Week One of the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go challenge.
This means the color theory prompts are over and more aggressive prompts will begin!
When I put this challenge together I was super excited to really "challenge" myself and others with new types of prompts, but then when it comes time to DO them, I'm like WHAT WAS I THINKING?!
But anyway - todays final color theory is Primary Colors, which are just about my favorite on the color wheel, something I just loved when I took art class in high school.

Hey lovelies!
I hope you're enjoying the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go challenge posts so far! I'm totally excited about the amount of awesome ladies who have jumped on board the challenge and really brought it! After this week of Color Theory prompts, it will get progressively more difficult so I am excited to see what everyone does!
Todays prompt is Contrast. Exciting! While mine is not contrast along the color wheel, I think it's safe to say it still works!

Hello there - I've missed you guys the last couple of days!

I have been frantically prepping my challenge manicures for this month so I could take some time and get caught up on reviews while it's running - so welcome to February, the month of the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go Challenge!

This was a challenge I pieced together several months ago and I'm so glad it's finally here!! If you are interested in jumping into the challenge or trying it another month - you can find info HERE on the prompts, inlinkz and hashtag gallery codes and challenge graphics. Now let's get started!

I'm taking a short break from the Digit-al Dozen this week/today to bring you another in the Pure Tutorials Series I'll be doing here on the blog once a month.
Pure Nail Lacquer sponsors a few bloggers to produce tutorials doing anything we want with any of their polishes - so today I decided to do a pretty easy/everyone can do it type of tutorial - Rainbow Leopard! Truth be told I was a bit at a loss for what to do this month, so Nory of Fierce Makeup & Nails is to thank for this idea!

I am SOOOO excited to do more videos, I have really given my all to it and I LOVE IT! Not only am I thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Pure, but also to finally get the push I needed to do more tutorials and videos!
