Autumn and Winter Holidays Challenge-Halloween

Good morning.

As you already know the "Alphabet Challenge'' ended this Saturday but as promised I started another one.

My good friend and fellow blogger OANA was very quick and she made another collab-sheet(you'll see it at the end of the post) with 10 themes that will be enough for the rest of the year.

I am very glad she decided to this because these collaborations bring us together and put our imagination to good work.

First theme is "HALLOWEEN" - that's why we'll be posting Friday. (from next week we'll be posting Saturday, as usual)

I am not a big fan of this holiday...and I honestly don't know why. It's not like I hate it or something...I just don't find myself in it. (What I really hate...is the slutty costumes in which the majority of the girls dress- but that's none of my business)

I will stop "talking" now and  I will show you the manicure I did. (this isn't a typical Halloween manicure)



 What I used for this manicure:
Golden Rose Paris-nr. 71 (black)
Catrice- Orange-Utan
Eveline White
SallyHansen- Good to Grape

My inspiration :

I hope you'll like the manicure.

I cannot wait for next week to see what the girls do.

Match the dress- ThinkPink

Good evening my darlings.

How are you today?? Looking forward to the weekend?

I hope you had a better than I did...because mine was pretty bad. Even so...I was very eager to write on the blog today.

I will show you a manicure I did to participate in Andrea's Giveaway (you can still participate if you want to - ROMANIA only)

The theme was "Match the dress" - since we're still in October I decided to pick something PINK.
This will be my last pink manicure for - BreastCancerAwareness.

I was very happy to be able to participate in her nail contest.

I hope you like the manicure I did ...and I hope that I will win. (If I do...it will be the second giveaway I win from her blog).
You should check her blog out when you have a chance because she's a great nail artist! ColourYouLife

1st negative space

Good evening!

How are you tonight...? I can guess that many of you ..sad because of the weather.

I am really sad too...because I wasn't expecting the snow this early, fortunately I will "enjoy" the snow tomorrow because I am back home. (here...instead of snow we had a very low temperature)

Even if you are used to see the "alphabet challenge" manicure this time of the week....I am ashamed to tell you that I didn't do it YET. I promised myself that I will do every one of them...so I will. (I have my idea...i just didn't have the time to execute it)

Instead of that manicure...I will show you another manicure I did last week.

It's the first time I did "negative space" and I must say I am very happy with the result.

Have you ever tried this technique before? Did you like it?






I will also show you a pic I took today : while everybody was crying because it was snowing in October I was smiling because I was enjoying the sun!

Think pink #3

Hello!

I am so happy to write another blog post.

I've decided to do another 'pink' manicure. I said ''pink" because it's actually a galaxy manicure done with pink.

Unfortunately...in the pictures the pink looks more purple.

I am very happy to tell you that my dear friend Oana, helped me to order 4 stamping plates from BornPrettyStore.
I cannot wait to recieve and use them.

Lastly, but least...I am happy to announce you that I will soon host a great GIVEAWAY on my blog so stay put and be prepared to do some manis! (I will tell you more in one week)

Here's my last "think pink' manicure!
