Spring Challenge Day 5 : Rainbow

Posted by Unknown on Thursday, May 3, 2012




Ok, I admit it... I failed big time... :) For the past few days, I've been trying to make the rainbow... I never thought it would be this hard... I tried sponging, stripe patinting... And failed them all... Sooo, I came up with the next best thing... Stamping... :)

Forgive me, but I give up... I believe rainbows and me, just don't get along... :) So please accept this as my last mani to complete the challenge... :(

Soooo, this is my Rainbow mani... :) Flormar Supermatte in White with Kleancolor Metallic Sapphire stamping... The plate is Konad UK Q1... The lovely plate Debbie sent me... Thank you Debbie... :)

So this concludes my challenge...

Thank you for watching and thank you all the ladies that participated... And a big thanks for our host Mateja, from Purple Glitters.... Hope to see you in another lovely challenge.... :)

Spring Challenge Day 4 : Bugs

Posted by Unknown on Thursday, April 26, 2012

Today is the 4th day of Spring Challenge hosted by dear blogger friend Purple Glitters... The theme was bugs... And I chose yellow&green color combination for this theme...


I had no yellow nail polish, so I went and bought this lovely yellow from Pastel. It is Limited Collection #308, with tiny gold glitter in it... Perfect color for spring.... 

I made the flowers and the lady bug freehand with my Flormar Nail Art polishes and my lovely dotting tool.

For the last day of the challenge, we will be doing a rainbow... Let's see how that one will turn out... :)

Black & White Nail Challenge Day 10: Manicure of your choice with Black&White

Posted by Unknown on Wednesday, March 28, 2012

Heyyy! I have completed my first challenge!!! First I'd like to thank my hosts Purple Glitters and Colorful Bottle for letting me join... I really enjoyed participating. Although the tasks seemed easy, (only black and white) it was really hard for me to come up with new designs, as seen on the last three days of the challenge. :)))

On to the last challenge, today we are doing the manicure of our choice... So I thought of using my new Konad plates... S6 to be exact. I'm having some kind of relationship with it nowadays... :)

I used Orly Sea Gurl and Konad Special polish in Silver for this manicure. I made the black variaton for our Facebook group the other day, which looked equally lovely.. :)


Hope you like it... See you on new challenges... :)

Black & White Nail Challenge Day 9: Water Marble

Posted by Unknown on Sunday, March 25, 2012

The Mess!
Here comes trouble.... This is the 9th day of Black & White Nail Challenge hosted by Purple Glitters. Today we'll do water marbling... :)

I have never tried water marbling before, but have read all about the experience of those who have tried. So, I used all of their methods combined and boom!!! 1st try was a true disaster!!!!! Really... :(

So I tried again. I used drinking water... Packed my fingers... Combined polish... And dipped my fingers one by one... Ta daaa! Perfeccctttt!!! I used black, white and red... A perfect combination... But damn, I had packed my fingers soooo tight, when I tried to take away the tape, I ruined most of the polish... Only one survived... :( Here, enjoy the ring finger...

(If you're wondering if I'll ever try water marble again, my answer is SURE!!!)




Bela geliyorum demez.... Etkinliğin bu 9. gününde ebru tekniğini kullanmamız gerekiyordu... Daha önce hiç denemediğim bir teknikti. Ama deneyenlerin tüm yazılarını okumuştum. Onların tecrübelerinden yararlanarak ilk denememi yaptım... Felaket.... Anlatmaya söz bulamıyorum.... :(

İkinci denemem için hazırlandım. İçme suyu doldurdum bardağa... Parmaklarımı paketledim... Teker teker suya daldırıdım... Harika... O kadar güzel görünüyorlardı ki.... Bu arada, siyah beyaz ve kırmızı kullanmıştım... Neyse, gelelim sonuca... Parmaklarımı selobant ile o kadar sıkı paketlemişim ki, çıkartırken ojelere değdim ve hepsini bozdum. Sadece yüzük parmağım hasarsız kurtuldu. O yüzden sadece yüzük parmağımı yayınlıyorum... :)

Bu arada, yenilen pehlivan güreşe doymazmış... Bir ara tekrar deneyeceğim bu işi... :)

Black & White Nail Challenge Day 8: Sponging

Posted by Unknown on Thursday, March 22, 2012

Uh oh!!! Horror begins... :) I have never tried sponging and water marbling before, sot these two days of the Challenge will really be "the challenge" for me... Well, that's the beauty of it, don't you agree?

Well, let's get statred... :) I used Alix Avien Black as the base color. Then I grabbed my kitchen sponge, cut a tiny part and sponged Flormar Nail Art White... Not so bad.... But I had to do something else... So I dipped my nails in the gold glitter that was a part of my daughter's craft supply... Badddd mother... Hope she doesn't see this post. :) The result? Not so bad, eh?




Korku dolu günler başlıyor... Daha önce hiç sünger tekniği veya ebru tekniği denememiştim. O yüzden bu iki gün benim için biraz zor geçecek gibi görünüyor...

Önce Alix Avien'in siyahını sürdüm... Sonra bulaşık süngerimden bir minik parça kopardım ve Flormar Nail Art'ın beyazı ile onu süngerledim. :) Tam olmamış gibi göründü... Bir şeyler eksik gibi... Ben de kızımın kırtasiye dolabından altın rengi simleri alıp tırnacıklarımı içine batırdım... Eh işte, şimdi bir şeye benzedi. Değil mi??? :)

Black & White Nail Challenge Day 7: Black&White With Glitters

Posted by Unknown on Monday, March 19, 2012


Did you enter my mini giveaway???








Today is the 7th day of Black & White Nail Challenge. As we are getting closer to the end, the tasks have become harder for me, since I'm out of designs... :) Here's what I did for today...

I used Alix Avien Black for the base and topped it with Flormar Nail Art Silver Glitter. Then I added dots using my dotting tool and Flormar Nail Art White...

Ooopsie, sponging for day 8... I should get back to thinking... :)


Etkiniliğimizin 7. gününe geldiğimizde ben de artık zorlanmaya başladım. Yaratıcılık konusunda tıkanmalar yaşıyorum... :) Mesela bugün Alix Avien'in siyahı ile baz yapıp, üzerine Flormar Nail Art'ın gümüş simlerini sürdüm. Üzerine de noktalama aletimle ve Flormar Nail Art'ın beyazı ile puantiyeler yaptım...

Bir dahaki görev sünger... Iyyyk, çalışmaya başlamam lazım... :)

Black & White Nail Challenge Day 6: Color Base With White

Posted by Unknown on Friday, March 16, 2012



Today is the 6th day of Black & White Nail Challenge. Today's task is
using a color base with white nail art. So I used Clarie's 02 , a shiny blue with konad special black white and stamped it with BM plates. See you on day 7... :)

Now should be a good time to mention the Konad Gold... I am highly satisfied with the results of Konad black and white, while gold shows no color when stamped, even on black. :(




Bugün Siyah Beyaz Tırnak Etkinliğinde 6. gündeyiz ve konumuz renkli baz üzerine beyaz baskı...Ben baz olarak Clarie's 02 sürdüm. Şişede daha koyu görünüyor ama aslında çok hoş bir mavi. Denim rengi sanki... :) Baskı için Konad beyazı kullandım. Ve tabii ki damga Bundle Monster. :)

Bu arada, belirtmeden edemeyeceğim, Konad'ın siyah ve beyazından ne kadar memnunsam, altın renginden de o kadar pişmanım. Siyahın üzerine bile kullansam, belli belirsiz bir renk veriyor. Gerçekten çokkkk üzgünüm bu konuda. Allahtan China Glaze ve Orly'nin ojeleri imdadıma yetişiyor... :)

7. günde görüşmek üzere...

Posted by Unknown on Monday, March 12, 2012



Today is the 5th day of Black & White Nail Challenge, on which we are supposed to use a color base with black nail art. So I used Flormar 129, a nice purple with konad special black polish with BM plates. See you on day 6... :)



Bugün Siyah Beyaz Tırnak etkinliği için renkli baz üzerine siyah desen yapmamız gerekiyordu ki ben Flormar'ın 129'unu ve Konad'ın siyah ojesini kullandım. Baskıyı da Bundle Monster plakam ile yaptım. 6. günde görüşmek üzere... :)

Black & White Nail Challenge Day 4: White Base With Color

Posted by Unknown on Saturday, March 10, 2012




Hi! Today's task was white base with color for the 4th day of Black&White Nail Challenge. So today, I put on Flormar Supermatte in White and painted half of my nails with Flormar Supershine Miracle Colors U33. I added the dots with a dotting tool. For the accent nail, I used U33 again, and some star shaped rhinestones. See you on day 5. :)

Bugünkü görev; beyaz üzerine renkli süslemeler... Flormar Supermatte'ın beyazı ile boyadım tırnaklarımı. Üzerine yine Flormar'ın Miracle Colors U33'ünü sürdüm ve noktalama aleti ile küçük noktacıklar yaptım. Tek tırnağa ise tamamen U33 sürüp, üzerine yıldız şeklinde taşlar yapıştırdım... 5. günde görüşmek üzere...

Black & White Nail Challenge Day 2: White On Black

Posted by Unknown on Sunday, March 4, 2012

This is day 2 of the Black & White Nail Challenge and today's challenge is White on Black...

Here's what I did...




I used Rimmel Balck Pearl for the base coat. I stamped with Konad Special Nail Polish in White. I used my Konad plate m84...






I really loved how this design looked on my nails. Eager to take photos, I forgot to wash my hands and took the pictures with polish dryer spray residue on my fingers. So I'm not a lizard lady or something. :)


See you on day 3... Thanks for looking... :)



Siyah beyaz tırnaklarda ikinci gün. Bugün siyah üzerine beyaz yapmamız gerekiyor. Ben de önce Rimmel Black Pearl ile ana rengi boyadım. Sonra üzerine Konad Special Polish'in beyazı ve m84 plakası ile bu baskıyı yaptım. Görüntü o kadar hoşuma gitti ki, hemen fotoğrafını çekeyim derken ellerimi yıkamayı unutmuşum ve parmaklarımda Flormar'ın oje kurutucu spreyinin kalıntıları var. Yani cildim o kadar da kuru değil... :)

Üçüncü günde görüşmek üzere.... :)
