Hello Kitty Nails, finally!

So I finally decided to upload all the pictures on my camera, and wow there were a lot!!
Today I have the nails I did with my free Hello Kitty Plate from Born Pretty. I totally love Born Pretty! Their shipping does take a while, but their customer service is great and the fact that they have free giveaways all the time is amazing! I currently have some free Hello Kitty stickers en route to me somewhere. These aren't all that different from all the others I have seen, but I wanted to show them anyway. ^_^

Ignore the bottle of lotion in my hand hah

I filled in the bow with a hot pink nail art pen and added a cute pink rhinestone. I stamped a blue kitty on my thumb, but you couldn't really see it against the dark purple. 

My curtains are a little crazy hot pink

The rhinestones are from a wheel I bought from 88Beauty

I LOVE this Hello Kitty stamp soooo much, I almost can't believe I got it for free! It stamps so well, and is too frickin cute! ha I think that Born Pretty may still be giving away 10 free plates a day, so if you're lucky you may be able to still snag a free one. Plus they are always having a new free giveaway, so keep your eyes peeled!

What I used:
Color: China Glaze Virtual Violet
Tips: China Glaze Something Sweet
Stamp: Konad Special White
Nail Art: Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Hot Pink
T/C: Seche Vite

Yay picture!!

Ok, so I have a serious backlog of pictures of manis at the moment because I had planned on starting this blog about a month ago.. but alas life got in the way.

So anyway...
When I went to my local Sally's they had the $4.99 China Glaze sale, and I was stoked to find a whole display full of Tronica polishes, but as we all know now, they kinda suck! grrr!! All I wanted was a good linear holo!.. in fact a good holo at all (I have now found a few).  The only one that I found actually had any linear holo at all in the batch that I bought (of Techno Teal, Virtual Violet, Hologram and Electric Magenta) was Hologram. No pics of it, cause frankly there are already pics of this collection all over the blogs, but I do have a pic of my stamping attempt with these "holos".

Yay, first pic!

Ok so here's the deal...
Base: A Sally Hansen I can't find at the moment (shocker)
Plate: BM21
Stamp: A tricolor stamp of Techno Teal, Electro Magenta, and Virtual Violet
Tips: Sinful Colors Black on Black (with the scotch tape type deal)
Topcoat: Seche Vite (<3)
