Maniology Negative Space Galaxy Stamping Plates

Affiliate Code

Hey there!  To start off a new week, I'm sharing two brand new stamping plates from Maniology released just today!  I have to say, I think these plates were secretly made just for me so I'm ridiculously excited to be showing them today.  They are called the "Negative Space Galaxy" plates...which means they're spaced themed AND have a focus on negative space images (which I LOVE).  I'm sure these are going to be popular so if you're looking to grab them, I'd do it soon.  And don't forget to use the code COPY10 to save yourself 10% on your order.  Keep reading to see the plates in all their glory!

UberChic Beauty Basketball Love and Soccer Love Stamping Plates

Press  Sample

Hey there!  Today I have a couple of plates for all you sports fans out there.  UberChic Beauty recently released these two new mini plates, Basketball Love and Soccer Love.  I think the names are pretty self-explanatory.  So whether you watch, play or have family members involved in these sports, these are some must-have plates since I don't think I've seen such focused sports stamping plates before this.  Even though I don't watch or play either basketball or soccer, I had a lot of fun playing with these plates but they'd definitely be even more enjoyable for someone who does!

Maniology Mani X Me January 2019

Affiliate Code

Hey there!  I'm back today with a look at this month's Maniology Mani X Me Box (pronounced "mani by me" for those of you who might not get that right away...I didn't!).  The Mani X Me Box is a monthly subscription box that is guaranteed to contain two stamping plates, two Maniology polishes and some extra nail art goodies.  Also, if it's your first month, they include a rectangular clear stamper called the Ice Cube.  But don't let the "subscription" idea scare you because it sounds like commitment.  You can skip month's that you're not feeling or just buy a single month at a time.  And let's not forget the pineapple gummies.  I don't know if they're a guarantee but they are the most delicious candy I've ever tasted.  I didn't snap a picture of the gummy time around because, I'm not kidding, I ate it as soon as I opened the box, haha!

When Colours Collide - Pink, Purple and Blue

Hey there!  I really should've posted my When Colours Collide mani yesterday but I rarely think of Sunday as a blogging day.  So I went along with my lovely Sunday and by the time I knew it, it was bedtime and I still hadn't blogged!  So here they are today instead.  This week's prompt was Pink, Purple and Blue.  For those that don't know, the When Colours Collide folk pick 3 colors and you can ONLY use those colors in your mani.  That's tough for someone like me who is pretty addicted to black or white in almost every design I do.  But I powered through and came up with this double gradient.  Hope you like it!

The Digit-al Dozen does Marble - Water Marble Nails With Stamping

Hey there!  Today brings us the end of The Digit-al Dozen's Marble Week.  One of the coolest (but most challenging) marble technique has to be the water marble.  I personally find that I can only marble with certain polishes.  I don't know what it is in a formula that makes it water marble-able or not and I'm certainly not patient enough to figure it out.  So when I get the urge to water marble, I tend to go back to my tried-and-true pipe dream polish neons.  This brand is gone now but I'll always appreciate whatever magic she put in them that made them fool proof.

The Digit-al Dozen does Marble - Drip Marble

Hey there!  It's the fourth day of The Digit-al Dozen's Marble Week and you had to know I was going to get to a drip marble eventually.  I fell in love with this technique as soon as I saw it.  So when I received my order of the Cirque Colors Dreamscapes collection over the holidays (ordered from Harlow & Co. because shipping from the US to Canada is pricey), I thought they're make a pretty dreamy marble mani.  Let me know if you agree!

The Digit-al Dozen does Marble - Baggie Marble Nails

Hey there!  It's Day 3 of The Digit-al Dozen's Marble Week.  Since I don't schedule my posts ahead of time (because I'm rarely that organized) I thought today's winter-y nails would be appropriate since it's starting to snow here tonight.  In Edmonton you never know if that is going to mean just a few flurries or a full on blizzard along with deepfreeze temperatures.  Fingers are crossed for just a few flurries!
