31 Day Nail Challenge: Day 28-Inspired by a Flag
I had honestly no idea what flag I wanted to do up until about noon. I kinda just gave up and it ended up working better than expected.

31 Day Nail Challenge: Day 26-Inspired by a Pattern
So I was thinking about patterns and I didn't want to do anything simple. Typical me, I was... over ambitious, to say the least. I chose a blue chine plate pattern to do because I am a self-sabotaging person.

31 Day Nail Challenge: Day 23-Inspired by a Movie
So I wasn't really picking up any movie inspiration for this challenge. I can't even actually remember the last movie I watched. But I figured I could get away with doing a TV show because hey same difference, okay? And I chose one of the best shows ever to showcase on my nails for the day: Avatar: the Last Airbender!

31 Day Nail Challenge: Day 22-Inspired by a Song
Inspired by a song was a tiny bit easier than inspired by a color. I opened up my music library and for some reason the first thing to pop into mind was "Jar of Hearts" by Christina Perri. It started off well enough but ended a disaster, and I'll leave it at that. Then, for no real reason, "Blueberry Kisses" by Lady Gaga played in my head. And I thought "Hey, blueberry nail art would be awesome. Let's throw in some mouths too, even though I suck at them." And.. well, here it is.

31 Day Nail Challenge: Day 20-Water Marble
Ohhh water marbling. I was almost excited this morning to try it out. And then I got a bit of nail polish and water on my keyboard, and cleaning up my fingers alone was tragic (even with tape!). And also, I just... did not water marble well.

31 Day Nail Challenge: Day 15-Delicate Print
So I didn't really have a clear idea of what 'delicate' print entailed. I mean yeah there's lace and um, I don't know what else. You know what's super delicate and also adorable and makes for a great print? BUNNIES!

31 Day Nail Challenge: Day 10-Gradient
Gradients. Oh how I love gradients. I was super excited for this day because gradients are like the best things ever (okay not really, but they're nice and simple and so easy to do but still look so nice especially with the right colors).

31 Day Nail Challenge: Day 7- Black & White
Woo! We're officially one week into this challenge! How exciting! Also we're FINALLY DONE WITH THE COLORS! Well the basic colors, anyway. I can't even tell you how glad I am. Not that I didn't enjoy it, it's just that I prefer a more direct challenge besides just a color or whatever. So black and white. I had thought for a few days I was going to do a half moon with some lace around it. Classy, elegant, very feminine and whatnot. But instead I did something entirely different.

31 Day Nail Challenge: Day 6- Violet
I think it's been a nearly everyday occurrence so far in this challenge that the color I applied turned out to be... not quite the color hoped for. So violet came, and I was so pumped because I have tons of purples to choose from. I had my idea all in mind, and I was so positive that my color was actually purple. But.. no. It turned out reddish. Disappointed, I tried to fix it because I really didn't want to change me whole design, so I added the most sheer purple color over it and said, "You know what, close enough. I'll just call it red violet." And so I did.
