My dear friend, Meredith, graduated from our University with a BA with Honors today! I originally promised to do her nails, as I thought I would be here for graduation. Alas, I discovered the flight I bought sent me home last Sunday! (And about my lack of posts, let’s just say finals and real life overwhelmed me. I do have plenty, and I mean plenty, of photos and swatches for y’all!)
So I told her to fit a set of fake nails and give them to me, and I would paint them 🙂 She said to surprise her, so I chose cherry blossoms as she lived in Japan last summer, and since has been in love with that country. A bonus, she can also keep these nails forever with careful removal =)

If you wanted to know how to say “I love you” in American Sign Language, this would be it. 🙂

This featured three Orly polishes, and two American Apparel polishes whose names I have forgotten, and they’re currently stashed far away from me. I’ll just edit this part later, lol. I used a tip of a pencil and the rounded part of a hair pin because at that moment everything had been packed away and I didn’t have my nail art stuff out. It was also my very first attempt at freehand art… yikes! It turned out okay, I hope?

Such long fake nails! I’m going to be surprised if she tells me she never poked herself in the eye with it. 😛

So, I got the new Bundle Monster set in mail yesterday and of course had to try it out IMMEDIATELY. I love this set! I also decided to try out an American Apparel polish for stamping, and I have to say it looks promising. I may have to go back and update my stamping list to add the AA colors to it!

I also am applying this towards the theme 🙂
