Fucshia Jelly Sandwich

Hi there!  I've been lazy, lazy, lazy about keeping up with my blog and my nails in general, as you'll see from the following photos.  Time just seems to trickle away these days!  I have a quick post for you tonight, so let's get to it.

I probably should have saved this one for my ABC Challenge this week as we're on to "J", but it's so pretty I had to post it!  This is a jelly sandwich (hence the relevance to "J").  I started with 2 coats of Wet 'n' Wild's FastDry in FucshiaRama, followed by a coat of Collage Overlay by Seche.  Then I topped everything with another coat of FuschiaRama.
 

If you've never tried this technique, I highly suggest it.  Nothing shows off the wonderful squishy-ness of a jelly like a sandwich!  There's also the surprise factor since you can never be sure how the glitter you choose will look under a layer of jelly.  So fun!
 

Have you tried this technique?  What did you think?

Thanks so much for reading!

Two Manicures and a Missing Dog

Howdy, everyone!  I hope you all had a great holiday, I certainly did!  I got to spend a week back home in Kansas with my family.  It's always so great to see everyone, but at the end of a week I'm ready to get back to Chicago and my own bed! 

I have a couple of manicures to show you today.  I'm way behind on posting and am trying to get back into the swing here, so I hope some of you are still out there reading.  The first manicure is one I wore for a few days in Kansas.  My stepmom loved it and couldn't get over how pretty it was...I felt the same way.  Here's a look:
