Enough of the silliness, let's get down to business! Who's the bright star who joined TWO consecutive challenges? This girl and I'm not a super star Queen of Challenges like Miss Nicole over at The Color Republic who I think is juggling three challenges? Crazy challenge lady - LOL :)
We're on Day 3 of Ooh La La Polish's My Favorite Things Challenge and Day 2 of Kimber at Kimber's Lacquer Korner 31 Day Challenge. The trick is to combine My Favorite Food with the color Orange....or do two mani's in one night - tried that last night, with very little success (total disasticure - thanks Nicole at Polish Me Please for the nail lingo!!). I hope I pulled off two challenge entries with one look!! If not, oh flippn' well - have you heard about my week so far?

| I got my inspiration from these are coasters I made awhile back for a Craft Fair I participated in at work. These are canvas squares I sewed and then painted with acrylic paint. Once I added the sealant, I used fabric glue to glue black felt on the back. I didn't actually sell this set, so I gave it to cousin (who is my sushi buddy) for Christmas. |
Main Color: Revlon - Elegant
Accent Color: NYC - Some no name Orange
I used acrylic paint for the sushi
Top Coat: Seche Vite

This looks great!! I don't know what you were talking about last night, but it couldn't be more perfect!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I loved how you did yours and I didn't even think to lay them out that way!!!
DeleteOHHH I LOVE IT! Sushi is definitely one of my favs as well! I think it looks great!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! Mmmmm sushi, now that's what I want for lunch!!
DeleteThis is so clever! I love how you combined the two challenge themes. You are very talented at freehand designs!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! I did not have time to do my nails twice last night!!
DeleteYou handled both challenges nicely. I am juggling tow challenges right now too so I know the feeling. Sometimes you just have to combine!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was a toughy!!
DeleteKnocked two birds with one stone. Good job on the mani. The sushi looks yum.
ReplyDeleteThanks - mmmm sushi!
DeleteThis sushi is SO cute! Can anyone get in on the 31 nail challenge?? I'd love to try it! <3
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think so, have a look at Kimber's blog, there is a 31 day Challenge participants post!!
DeleteDman it woman! Again with the awesome free hand! I am so uber jealous! I love it! Now I am super glad I decided against doing sushi! Mine would have BLOWN! But we were on the same page with getting both challenges done in one post! I love it girl!
ReplyDeleteOh yah, great minds think alike!! We might be doing this a couple of times over the course of these two challenges - hopefully it's nothing that can't be joined!!
DeleteCould that orange be times square tangerine creme? Just a guess, it looks a lot like it.
ReplyDeleteYES!!!!!!! I was literally jumping up and down when I read this!!! Good call!!
DeleteFlawless sushi art on your nails! You are seriously talented
ReplyDeleteThank you!! Imagine what I could do if I had your nails?!?
DeleteCOOL DUDE COOL! They make me want to barf a little though. Only because I hate sushi. I think I O.D. on it once and now I'm forever disgusted. No joke, if I even put it in my mouth I start gagging.
ReplyDeleteI love the art though. Your so good at painting itty bitty things ;)
Bahahaha!! I feel the same way about nacho corn nuts - I had a bad experience with a case of those - ugh.
DeleteThese look super tasty! :) X
ReplyDeleteThank you, I had to get Japanese food for lunch yesterday!!
DeleteNicole, this is brilliant! Love, love, love!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Lisa!!
DeleteSushi is one of my favorite foods too! I am really really fascinated by asian cooking in every aspects :)
ReplyDeleteNow I want sushi for dinner too!
DeleteHow very cool! These type of challenges freak me out because I get manicure block and can't figure out what to do at all. The idea of participating in multiple challenges is beyond me. I am a sushi lover...mmmmm....sushi
ReplyDeleteYou could so do it!! I like the structure, but I don't like that it's a specific color only, too broad!
DeleteOh and thanks by the way :)
DeleteWow! The detail is great!
ReplyDeleteI have nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award,

ReplyDeleteThank you, I liked that one too!!
DeleteThat nail art is soooo amazing! It looks so complicated to do, and you did a great job!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I see from your blog that you are also into nail art - very fun!!
