First Christmas design of the season!

Hey huns!!  this is going to be a suuuuper quick post tonight as I have been a busy bee all day long and it is almost midnight here, I'm not going to lie...I think I hear my bed calling for me!!  





Tonight I really felt like I wanted to do some Christmas nail art and after seeing some super cute designs by the awesome Rad D I decided to do a little design with a peeking Rudolph  and snowy tips and presents.

This is the first real piece of sit down nail art I have done since my little grey cloud so  am quite happy these turned out at least recognisable lol! 

I hope you guys are feeling christmasy..I am beginning to feel it a little! yippeeeee!  I also thought I would show you my new business card I have had made up, I plan on going mobile in the new year so I am preparing for it......excited much!!  night night to you all...see you sooon xxxxx

Christmas Challenge day 7 ornaments

Hey all, crikey i am late with this one....apologies my angels.  It has been a rubbish day for me today...don't get me started hehe....so my heart wasn't really in this tonight.  I didn't know what i was going to do until i started....and this is what i came up with.

I done the ornaments hanging off a branch with a neutral background...i kinda liked how they turned out....especially the little micro balls i used for the baubles....messy yes, but pretty.

I hope you guys like my idea night...another Mimi original.  Laters my lovelies ad be sure to check out the other fab entrants!

Christmas Challenge..day 6 gifts

Here we go my beauties its day 6 of our 12 day challenge and i bring to you today....gifts!

Now i must admit i wasn't particularly inspired by today's theme, again, my imagination cant get past the standard gift manicure...and i want to make sure all of the nails i have shown i have never attempted before.  So i called on a favourite of mine...the amazeballs Robin Moses, and done my own rendition of her Christmas stocking gift mani. 

I bloody love doing these challenges, they really inspire me to try my hand at new things, and whilst my manicure isn't as good as Robins i hope i have done her proud in my lil attempt.

I hope you guys as always, like my effort here, check out the other beauties who are participating and ill see you day 7! xxxxx

Christmas Challenge...day 3...candy canes

Here we go sweeties....day 3 of the Christmas challenge in the form of candy canes.  I love doing these challenges because they really can push you in directions you wouldn't normally try. 


When i saw we were going to be doing candy canes i was a little...blah...purely because my imagination cant really stretch beyond the traditional red and white stripes...and i always want to try something i have never done before.  So i turned to the lovely Robin Moses for inspiration and followed her tutorial.  I have been dying to do a Betty Boop design and i decided to incorporate it into this design.


I was kind of proud of how these turned out...faces are always my Nemesis...i can never quite get the hang of them...but these were passable and i can see improvement in my work.
I really hope you like my design here....roll on day 4!  Please do check out the other ladies who have taken part xxxx

christmas challenge day 2..inspired by a holiday song

Hello my beauties!  So today is the 2nd day of the Christmas challenge and today's instalment is inspired by a holiday song.  Wow there are tons of songs to choose from, but i had to opt for Joy To The World by Mariah Carey.  I love love love this song, the lyrics are great and has a great Christmas message...if you haven't heard it, listen to it here.



I am so pleased with the final result of my manicure here...this is a complete Mimi original as usually i will search the Internet for inspiration and do my own spin on what i have found, but this was all my idea! 


I really hope you guys like what i have put together here....stay tuned for day 3 and be sure to check out the other amazing ladies taking part below...toodle pip my friends xxxx

Snowman Christmas Nails

Hands up who feels christmassy yet? well i have been doing christmas shopping recently and i am starting to feel it now, so when Mimi feels it, she paints it....and here it is.....my little snowman Christmas scene.

 I haven't done any nail art for what seems like ages so its nice to be able to do something again, and I'm pretty pleased it turned out OK as i have never painted a Christmas design before. 


I was scouring the Internet for inspiration and found a design similar to this one, then it hit me i have a light decoration bang spot on to this design....

I hope my little instalment of Christmas joy has brightened your day...I'm already plotting my next design so stay tuned!
