Super Bowl Nails!

Llarowe announced a Super Bowl contest on Saturday so I decided to put something together Sunday morning as an entry.  I didn't start the mani until 12:30 pm and with an entry deadline of 2 pm (EST), it didn't leave me with a whole lot of time to do them (I spent most of the time looking for image plates to use!) so here's the entry but I didn't have time to take pix as I went along as I normally do!



Started with a base of OPI Bride's Bouquet (white), Manhattan 610K (purple) and FingerPaints Black Expressionism (black).  I did a tape mani with the three colours on the thumb.

Stamped using CND Gold Chrome and royal purple, black and white Konad stamping polish using CH35 (helmet, leg and football on index), HD004 (raven on ring), MJ IV (#1 on pinky), and m52 (large footballs on thumb).  Hand painted the B onto the helmet using the royal purple Konad polish.  Added random stars using fauxnad m06 using CND Gold Chrome and royal purple Konad special polish.  Topped with SV.



Llarowe announced the winners earlier today and my mani was chosen as an honourable mention winner for the Ravens! You can check out my entry and the winners here!  There's a lot of fabulous entries...and so much creativity!!!

Thanks very much to llarowe for making this contest available....it was a lot of fun putting it together....and congrats to all the winners!

Thanks for looking!

Manhattan 610K

Sorry it's taken me so long, but here is the Manhattan 610K that is making its way round the globe thanks to Kesha from Nail Polish Obsession. Keep reading to see who this polish will be visiting next.

I love this colour and obviously would love to keep it for myself but that's against the rules of the game. It's a great formula and goes on in two coats and dries quickly to give a bold, regal purple. There's no top coat in the picture, it's also uber shiny!

Konad Plate: M64
Base Colour: Manhattan - 610K
Konad Colour: Sally Hansen Chrome - Amber

Since the formula is very opaque, I decided to see how it would work as a stamping polish on my accent finger. I used Collection 2000 Hot Looks in Dynasty as a base. I would rate it as 4/5 for its opacity as a stamping polish.

Jenny at Polishology in the US is the lucky lady that will be receiving the polish next. Sorry to the other ladies who put their name in but be sure to follow the chase and I'm sure you will get it at some point on its journey.

I think this was a great idea from Kesha and I hope the polish makes its way back to Europe at some point too.
