NOTD: Strawberry Fields {again}

This idea came to me while browsing the thousands of pictures on instagram {follow me @roxypie89}

and what better polish to use than one named just for the things I wanted to paint- strawberries!

Again, this polish takes 2 coats to be opaque and streak-free which is great because it is a fav of mine!

• For the leaves I mixed the two green polishes to create 3 different variations of green and painted them on from darkest to lightest decreasing my brush strokes for each color.
• I finished it off with dots of gold to represent the seeds using the smallest dotting tool I have.
•  {a toothpick can work just fine for this part}

yum!

Products Used:

China Glaze- Strawberry Fields | Avon- Sweet Mint, Noir Emerald | Revlon- Gold Get 'Em.

NOTD + Baseball

I had an exciting weekend, I bought more CM Nail Art polishes, gave myself a cool manicure, and saw my favorite rookie baseball star Mike Trout! <3 {get ready for loads of pictures!}

Let's start with some Nail Art:

 The final product: #27 for the my favorite Angels' Mike Trout :)

•  I started out with a base coat of red polish, then added glitter and finished it off with 2 more coats of red polish. Result... 

Jelly Sandwich!

The sandwich gives off a multi-dimenional look I really like!

• Next I took my red CM Nail Art polish and added 2 semi-circles followed by lots of small lines to create the baseball.

• Finally, I drew the A and the 27 (freehand, using logos I found on Google as my guide) in Blue, then added Red over that. 
• I finished the A off with a grey Halo- I used a shorter brush in order to get the rounded effect more precise.

I realize that the 27 could have used a second attempt... but I blame it on having a strictly dominant left hand and being too excited to see the final result!

Moving on to Game Day pictures:

My Rally Monkey didn't make it to the game, 

  she had other engagements. I forgot her :(

Mike Trout!

And the Angel's won, until next time  Trout!
