Adventures in Lumpy Space

Hey Girls (and guys if there's any),
So I guess its that time of the week again :) Time for nails! Well its always nail time for me but I guess its more time for you to look at my nails and criticize my lack of artistic flair.
Anyway, this post is dedicated to the current AIPAS theme which is "inspired by a movie/TV".
Unfortunately I haven't bought any polishes that are movie or TV inspired, somehow? So I decided to use my own polishes from my Adventure Time themed collection "Polish Time". I have two shades to show you today "Lump off" a delightful vibrant purple with gold and fuschia glitter and "Rainicorn Vomit" a jumbled up glitter topper with over 20 different glitters.



I decided to do a simple striping tape mani. As you may have noticed, I am a little (a lot) addicted to striping tape! So I started off with a double coat of "Lump Off" and then did one double coat stripe of "Rainicorn Vomit" on each nail. To get the clean lines I did two strips of striping tape in both purple and silver on the edge of each stripe. Now you just finish it off with a coat or two of topcoat and WALLAH! your good to go.

From now on I'm going to grade manis with a little system just so you know how easy/hard or time consuming they are.
Difficulty: Easy
Time: ½ hour + drying time
Okay so you may be a little confused how it took me sooooo long to do this seemingly simple design. To get the lengths of the striping tape exactly right requires a lot of concentration and precision cutting (of which both I have none of) but I am a perfectionist so it took along time before they were all perfect.
If you like either of the polishes and would like to purchase them, then email me now, as I only have 1 bottle left of each -  sandiiibabe@gmail.com

Till next time, Polish Queens.
