Giveaway winner and Christmas nails.

Hey all!

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate, hope you all had a great day!  Our was busy, but still quite relaxing as we ended up back at home for dinner with my Mum, so son got a chance to actually play with his toys on Christmas Day, which never usually happens.  He got completely spoilt, as did we all!  Here are a couple of the pressies hubby got me!

Love Thy Polish nail polishes.. they are all so awesome.

Wonder Woman handbag..  Wonder Womaaannnn.. your a wonder, Wondeeerr Woooommmmaaaaaaaaannnnnnnn!!!!!  (Yes, I lurve Wonder Woman!  lol)

Portal earrings.. this is one of my favourite video games, even though it drives me completely crazy.. lol

I am a very happy lass!  :)

I would also like to announce the winner of my 50 followers giveaway.. it is *drumroll*   Teneil M!  Congratulations hun!  I have contacted Teneil, and will be sending her polishes out this coming week.  You can check out her awesome blog at Shades of Phoenix.  

Also welcome to all my newest followers.. I am now up to 100!  I can see another giveaway coming up soon.  :)

Oh and as some of you know, I also make jewellery.. I am having a sale at the moment to get rid of some stock.. 50% off everything in the 'For Sale' album on my Gypsys Creations facebook page..  check it out here!

 Now for some nails!  I went for something simple for my Christmas nails, but I was very happy with how they turned out and got quite a few compliments on them.

Polish used is EmilyDeMollys Path To Glory.. look at the holo-y gorgeousness!!  I was so pleased to get this from my Secret Santa as I had been wanting it forever!  Then I used Scotch tape and striping tape to make the tree.. I think I used a Zoya polish for the tree, then just a layer of Fairy Dust over the tree for more sparklyness.  Then a star decal on top of the tree, and voilà!

Did anyone else do Christmas nails..?  I would love to see them.    :)

Blue Addicted? I certainly am!

Well after the disaster of the water marbling I needed something to cheer me up.  So I decided to try  a polish I have had for a while now, but still hadn't used... Essence's Blue Addicted.  This polish is widely accepted as a dupe for Deborah Lippmans Across The Universe.  After trying it I feel no need to buy ATU, as this one is is just gorgeous!

This is with 3 coats of Blue Addicted, and one coat of Poshe, my new favourite top coat.   I love how the hexes look like they are floating in the polish!  I know some people use it as a layering polish, but I really didn't feel I had anything that would let the gorgeous blue show.

I loved the polish so much I had to right away and make a nail polish ring.. and ended up making 3!

Blue Addicted, Kimmy by Zoya, and Holy Grail by A-England.

New post tomorrow for the This Is Halloween challenge.. theme is ghosts.  Woooooo spooky!  ;)

Zoya Summertime

Hey all!!
I am adoring the polish I have on right now.. its Zoya's 'Reva'.  Wow, it's so bright and shimmery and gorgeous!!  I lurve her!  It's from the Summertime collection which I just received.    Used Poshe for the first time as well, loving that so far too, no shrinkage or lifting.... so, sorry SV, but you have now been replaced.

Someone said to me it reminded them of strawberry jam, and they're so right!  The formula is amazing, this is 2 coats and has perfect coverage.  As usual, excuse my crap clean up.. I am working on it.  lol   I received a nail brush kit in the mail today...

and plan on using one of them as a clean up brush.

Starting October 1st, I will be participating in a Halloween challenge.. my first one!  Bit excited!!
