Girly Girl Challenge Day 5: Gotta Love Chick Flicks

I'm not much of a "chick flick" kind of girl... I love comedies & horror!! But I remember going to see City of Angels with my BFF (1998) when it came out and it was definitely a tear-jerker!

There is a striking scene early in "City of Angels," where all the angels who live unseen in our midst, gather at the beach to watch the sun rise. The camera moves above them, showing the endless rows of ethereal men and women, all garbed in black. Then the camera moves in on the face of Seth, an angel played by Nicolas Cage, and as the sun rises, he smiles and his entire face lights up. You see, the angels can hear music in sunrises and sunsets, but they cannot feel a human touch.

I'm sorry this post is late - This was done extremely quick as I have been swamped at work!!! Also broke my middle finger nail :( This isn't my proudest work!

I used:

ChinaGlaze: Thataway

Revlon: Peach Smoothie

Sinful: Let's Meet

Barielle: Pearly White

Black Nail Art Striper

I just layered on the colors and swirled them around, no fancy technique...

Girly-Girl Challenge, Day 2: Gimme That Bling

Are you hungry?? Cause I made a jelly sandwich!!! 10 of them to be exact!!! LOL

Inside with Window Light:

"Jellin Like A Felon"

I have been wanting to try this technique out for awhile now. I forget exactly where I saw it first but never-the-less, it was on my "To Do One Day" list!

Outside Light:

Here is THE BLING close up!!

Sooooo... if you don't know what a "jelly sandwich" is yet- it's where you start with a base coat of a jelly nail polish, a couple other polishes if you wish, glitter, then apply the jelly on top encasing the glitter!

I used:

Barielle's Elle's Spell (for the base) - a red flakie jelly

Revlon's Watermelon Fizz (SMELLS SO GOOD) & NCLA's Hollywood It-Girl (glittery pink)

then,

Nicole by OPI Rainbow in the S-Kylie (clear base w/ multi colored Hex glitter)

& then,

Barielle's Elle's Spell (on top)

Topped it off with CND Super Shiny Top Coat!

I apologize- I don't have the greatest of cameras for close ups!! :(

But, I hope you liked my version!! Now, go check out all the other lovelies participating in this challenge!!
