Lumpy Space Princess Acrylic Design

Okay so this isn't a Nail Art post but I thought I would make an exception because I love Lumpy Space Princess, and Asa will be posting some Lumpy Space Princess Nail Art in the next week or so.





Design based on this T-shirt

I'll be back with some posts about the latest voxbox courtesy of Influenster, the Latina Voxbox!

Here's a quick design upload!

(Image I used for reference)

This was one of my favorite shows when I was younger! Blue's design was done with two Sally Hansen Nail Art Pens in Blue and Bright Blue.
Hope you like it!

I Love Lucy Nail Design

I'm finally posting! I feel like I've been putting this off for way too long! Maybe because I wasn't as satisfied with this design as I was with the other few I have uploaded. This design was just a little tribute to the wonderful show I Love Lucy, that I have been seeing a lot of recently! If no one's a fan of the show, you can still design your nails with the cute little lips I painted on both the index and ring finger. It's perfect for a Valentine's Day design!
Writing the words was hard with just a nail striper! It's why the Lucy part is kind of squished!

From Left: L.A. Colors Art Deco Baby Pink, Intense Pink and Rose
Sinful Colors Nail Art: Time Out
Sally Hansen Maximum Growth: Vital Violet
Just a plain little stripe design on the thumb and a criss cross one on the pinky. 
For this design really you need to try to steady your hand as best as you can. I honestly couldn't replicate it on my right hand, it was much too difficult without proper nail brushes. The lips are pretty easy by the way. Really you need to try and draw a sort of compressed heart, and than use black to part the lips.
My next post should be a simple and cute Cookie Monster one. Hopefully I'll get to it soon this weekend!! I can't believe school is already taking it's toll on Asa and I!!

Japanese Cherry Blossom Nail Art

Hey, it's Asa here! I know I haven't posted in a while but here I am. :)
For the base of this design I used KlassicColor Nail Lacquer in Pastel Teal. the branches of the tree was created using a nail striper (Wild Beauty Nail Paint in # 2 Black), the white petals were created using Wet 'n' Wild's color icon nail color in French White Creme and the soft pink petals were made by using e.l.f.'s Nail Polish in Light Pink (#81003).

This nail art was actually inspired by the Arizona Green Tea can. Instead of creating cherry blossoms on ALL my fingers, I decided to twist things up and drew the kanji symbol for "cherry blossom" in black polish on my ring finger using this picture as my guide.



The kanji symbol took a bit longer than painting the cherry blossoms because I wanted it to be perfect.
As you can see in the picture, I have put a small dot of the light pink in the middle of the white petals. This design can also be created with a white base or even a clear one if you do not have a pastel teal polish. You can even make the petals shimmery to make it more fun. The branches don't have to be black but I decided to make them this way because I didn't have a brown striper. Cherry blossoms are all the rage in the world of nail art and I decided to give it a whirl by putting my own twist on it.
