Easter Challenge - Pastel

Pastels. I love them. So pretty and calming. And fantastic way to wrap up the Easter challenge. I was glad I could take a break from nail art and try something new. I decided to do a delicate quilt pattern with loose glitter accents. 

After finishing the design I wished the colors were reversed. I really loved the bottom colors and they really didn't stand out as much as I had hoped. Lesson learned. This was a fun challenge and will be on the hunt for something new to motivate me.

Anyone doing any challenges? How do you decided what to blog about?

Easter Nail Challenge - Chick Nails

I'm not gonna mention that I'm a few days behind in the Easter challenge. ;) I have such a high level of respect for girls that can keep up with the challenges. I don't even have that busy of a life, other than work and friends, and I still get behind on the blog.

I'm still running a little low on inspiration, but the challenge is still pushing me to try more nail art, so I'm thankful for that. I used my trust Google, to look at chick nails. I really liked the style of Easter nails that Minnie over at Mini Blog created. Again, my design looked better in my head, but with baby steps I'll get there.

Thanks for stopping by. Until next time!

Easter Challenge - Day Three - Easter Eggs

Today's theme is Easter eggs. I loved the image used for the the challenge so that was my inspiration for my eggs.

The Easter eggs didn't turn out too bad, but I hate how my ideas always look so much better in my head. Seeing the eggs hiding in the grass makes me miss the egg hunt fun I enjoyed as a kid. I also miss baskets of candy. *drool* What were/are your favorite Easter candies or traditions?
