 Bundle Monster nail art wheels!! Little rhinestones, bullion beads, sequins…

 Obviously I ripped off my mani and started a new one!

 Orly Purple Pleather. Check out the interesting finish– not so quite matte, but more “plastic”

The hearts is from the BM nail wheel, and the bling on the edges of my nails as a funky french, is Milani Silver

So Nick surprised me with the stamps from Bundle Monster early on because I kind of suspected he had it, so I begged for an early present 😀 (FYI Birthday is actually Wednesday, but there’s nothing wrong with celebrating early!)

 YAY! 😀 So exciting. He also thought ahead and got me the stamper/scraper set.

 Check out the little chili pepper! Nick was particularly excited about this piece.

 Aww… little cupcake!

 Maiden voyage of stamping 😉 Not too bad?

 Yeah… No this one was bad.

 Ignore the index finger. The black in all these pictures is Wet N Wild Black Creme

 Nick Does Konad! This is over Nubar Sunset, which is matte gold.

 Picture proof 😉 And check out my little stamping set-up!

In this photo I have learned that matte polishes are not ideal for stamping. They dry too damn fast!

Guess who came in? That’s right– the OPI Katy Perry collection! I’m so excited for this 🙂

eee~ see what’s peeking on the left? Shatter! I got so excited when it came on I plopped it immediately on an accent finger of my Harlow funky french manicure.

I was a little disappointed– it didn’t do that amazing crackle effect like I’ve seen on other blogs, but maybe it has a different effect on matte finishes? Nevertheless I soldiered on, breaking out China Glaze Custom Kicks and Snow.

 China Glaze Custom Kicks. When I photographed this at first for a personal swatch (would you ever be interested in seeing my swatches??) I thought there was something wrong with my camera, or me. This polish is actually a very strong teal green but in all of my pictures it showed up as BLUE. So when I googled for other people’s pictures I saw they had the same problem. Looks like this is just shy 🙂

Edited: Apparently my Flip takes pretty great color accurate videos? Here’s a snapshot, which is a screenshot of what the Flip thinks Custom Kicks’ true color is (and it matches it wonderfully) however blurry.

CG Snow. Pardon the messy application, Snow was very streaky and HARD to get even with.

Thoughts? I love this!! 😀 I need like, 300 bottles of this stuff. For serious.
