Stripper Pole

Hello lovelies!!  Welcome to my 70th post!!  That's 70 days worth of mani's since June 15, 2012 - how exciting is that!!  What a whirlwind couple of months!!  The nail blogging community is full of so many friendly, creative and super talented artists - I'm continually amazed by everyone's kindness, support and genuine care!  Shoot, it's hard enough to find that in the "real" world, to find it online is crazy - and super wonderful!  I am so incredibly appreciative and thankful for all your support and kindness during my start into the nail blogger world!!  In honor of that and of you, I will be hosting a MASSIVE giveaway in early October!!  I will be posting sneak peek teasers of what I will be giving away starting Monday, so check back then to see what's up for grabs - it's going to be EPIC!!

Now that I've blabbered on, here's my mani for Stripes Day for the 31 Day Challenge.  Some of you may know that I am super anal and doing stripes for me is a little daunting.  I need them to be straight and even - I don't have striping tape yet (I ordered some this week :) and taping is so much work, I decided to freehand this one.  I need a little more practice with the freehand lines, the flaws in this make me cringe, but I know that's mostly my critical eye!!  Enjoy :)

  4. We have to learn to stop being so critical of our "flawed" manis. We only notice our own mistakes, sucks to be a perfectionist! I think it's absolutely beautiful! Congrats in the big 70! I'm right behind ya sister! :)
