May Twin Post–Sunflowers

Skoro smo na kraju Maja meseca, tako da je došao red na još jedan Twin Post. Ovog meseca, moj "blizanac" je Jessica sa bloga Be Happy and Buy Polish. 

Tema koju smo dobile su suncokreti, imale smo ideju da napravimo narandžasto-žuti vertikalni gradijent, na četvrtom noktu jedan veliki suncokret sa lišćem, a na ostalim noktima male suncokrete. Sve je zvučalo idealno, ali nažalost, moj gradijent se skoro uopšte ne vidi. Veliki suncokret je ispao veći nego što sam mislila, a malih suncokreta je previše. Ipak, zadovoljna sam kako smo nacrtale :).

Koristila sam : Essence - Doc, theBalm - Mellow Yellow i akrilne boje. 

We are almost at the end of the month May, so it time for another Twin Post. This month, my "twin" is Jessica from Be Happy and Buy Polish blog.

Theme that we got was Sunflowers, and we had idea to make orange-yellow vertical gradient, on accent nail to make one big sunflower with leaves, and on other nails small sunflowers. It all sounded ideal, but unfortunately, you can't even see my gradient. Big sunflower is bigger than I thought it would be, and there are too many small sunflowers. Still, I love how we draw everything :). 

I used : Essence - Doc, theBalm - Mellow Yellow and acrylic paints.

Stamping Easter Eggs

Nadam se da ste spremne za farbanje jaja sutra. Kod mene je sve spremno, pa čak i nokti koje sam "ofarbala" čak i pre jaja. Za farbanje noktiju, ovog puta sam koristila distressed tehniku (koju inače obožavam u poslednje vreme) i pečat sa pločice BM-H10. Za distressed tehniku koristila sam Essence - My Yellow Fellow, Essence - I like, i Essence - Bloom-A-Loom. 

I hope that you are ready for painting eggs tomorrow. I got all set, even my nails that I had to paint before eggs. For painting nails, this time I used distressed technique (which I, by the way, love lately) and stamping plate BM-H10. For distressed technique I used Essence - My Yellow Fellow, Essence - I like, and Essence - Bloom-A-Loom. 

Da li se radujete farbanju jaja? Ima li neka od vas u planu da iskoristi lakove za nokte za farbanje jaja? Videla sam neke članke o ovome, i čine se veoma interesantno.

Are you looking forward to painting eggs? Do you have in plan to use nail polishes for egg painting? I saw a few articles about this, and it seems really amazing.

Bunny in a grass

Uskrs je jako blizu, a ja volim da svake godine napravim nekoliko Uskršnjih nail art-ova a zatim da najlepši napravim opet za sam Uskrs. Moj prvi Uskršnji manikir ove godine je sa zečićem u travi punoj cveća. Nažalost, ovaj zeka izgleda malo ljuto, ali to je možda jer je Uskrs TEK za 5 dana.

Koristila sam Essence - Fall For Me - i akrilne boje.

Easter is really close, and I like to make each year a few of Easter nail arts and then choose the prettiest and do it again to wear on Easter day. My first Easter manicure this year is with bunny in a grass full of flowers. Unfortunately, this bunny looks a little bit angry, but maybe it is because Easter is in JUST 5 days.

I used Essence - Fall For Me and acrylic paints. 

Da li vam se dopada ovaj zeka? Imate li neku ideju za sledeći Uskršnji manikir koji bi mogla da napravim?

Do you like this bunny? Do you have any ideas for the next Easter mani that I could make?

Twin Post with The Polished Fangirl – Mandarin Fish

Danas ću vam pokazati moj prvi Twin Post. Twin post se događa jednom mesečno, kada svaka od nas koje se pridružimo dobija svog "blizanca" i temu na koju treba da naprave isti manikir. 

Ovog meseca, moj "blizanac" je Erika sa bloga The Polished Fangirl, a tema koju smo dobile je tropska riba. Nakon razgledanja svih mogućih vrsta tropskih ribica (nisam mogla da poverujem koliko ima prelepih riba) odlučile smo se za print kakav ima Mandarin riba.

Koristila sam : Essence - Doc, Gade - Stunning Sapphire, i Gade - Pool Party.

Today I'm going to show you my first Twin Post. Twin Post happens once in a month, and each of us get their "twin" and the theme for manicure. 

This month, my "twin" is Erika from The Polished Fangirl blog, and theme that we got is tropical fish. After looking into a lot of tropical fishes (I couldn't believe how many gorgeous fishes are there), we decided for Mandarin fish print. 

I used : Essence - Doc, Gade - Stunning Sapphire, and Gade - Pool Party.

Obavezno pogledajte i kako je Erika napravila ovaj isti dizajn, ali i teme koje su druge devojke dobile, kao što je zmijski print, tigar print, zebra print...

Be sure to check out how Erika made this design, and also the themes that other girls did, like snake print, tiger print, zebra print... 

Matching Manicure–Butterflies

Današnja tema za Matching Manicures su leptiri. Već duže vreme imam u planu da pokušam da napravim manikir sa neonskim leptirima koji je robin mouses napravila u ovom tutorijalu, tako da je ovo bila savršena prilika. Prateći njen tutorijal, stvarno je bilo lako nacrtati ove leptire. Nisam mogla da odolim, tako da i moji leptirići svetle u mraku.

Koristila sam Miyo - Black, Ebalay #003, Ebalay #002, Ebalay #006, Ebalay #009, FlorMar N002, Catherine Arley #709, Primark Beauty - Neon Yellow, Primark Beauty - Neon Pink i Essence - Flowerfields.

Today theme for Matching Manicures is butterflies. For a while now I have in plans to try to make manicure with neon butterflies that Robin Mouses made in this tutorial, so this was a perfect opportunity. Following her steps, it was really easy to draw this. I couldn't resist, so my butterflies also glow in the dark.

I used Miyo - Black, Ebalay #003, Ebalay #002, Ebalay #006, Ebalay #009, FlorMar N002, Catherine Arley #709, Primark Beauty - Neon Yellow, Primark Beauty - Neon Pink and Essence - Flowerfields.

Ne zaboravite da pogledate i leptiriće koje su devojke crtale danas :).

Matching Manicure - Vintage

Kada sam napokon saznala šta Vintaž predstavlja (što je tema ovonedeljnog Matching Manicure-a), počela sam da istražujem kakva je to moda bila prve polovine XX veka. Moram reći da ja nikada tako nešto ne bih nosila :). Prva inspiracija bile su mi četiri dame, sa velikim neobičnim šeširima, međutim to je bio neuspešan pokušaj. Sledeća inspirativna slika je bila mnogo lakša, uzorak tkanine iz 1930ih godina. 

When I finally found out what is Vintage (which is the theme of this week Matching Manicure), I started searching on google what was fashion trends in the first half of 20th century. I have to say that I would never wear something like that :). My first inspiration was four ladies, with huge unusual hats, but it was a failiure. Next inspiration photo was much easier, fabric pattern from 1930s.

Ovo je bilo veoma lepo, jednostavno i brzo za napraviti. Koristila sam Essence - Happy i akrilne boje. 

This was very nice, simple and quick to make. I used Essence - Happy and acrylic paints.

Ne zaboravite da pogledate i šta su ostale devojke crtale danas :).

Matching Manicure - Saran Wrap

Nisam koristila Saran Wrap tehniku baš dugo. A volim je. Zabavna je i nikada ne znam šta će na kraju ispasti. Zbog ovih prolećnih dana koje smo imali ove nedelje, odlučila sam da je napravim moj prvi cvetni manikir ove godine. Koristila sam : Classics - 135, Essence - The One and Only, Miyo - Black, Gina Tricot Beauty - Bright Peach i pločicu BM - 221.

I haven't used Saran Wrap technique for a really long time. And I like it. It is fun and I never know what it will turn out in the end. Because of these spring days that we had this week, I decided to make my first flower mani this year. I used : Classics - 135, Essence - The One and Only, Miyo - Black, Gina Tricot Beauty - Bright Peach and BM-221 stamping plate. 

Pogledajte i kako su ispali Saran Wrap manikiri ostalih devojaka. Ja sam oduševljena!

Check out how other girls made Saran Wrap mani. I was speechless.

Matching Manicure - French Manicure

French manikir je nešto što jednostavno ne volim da vidim. Ni na svojim noktima, ni na tuđim. Možda zato što je previše dugo "u trendu" ili možda zato što je postao klasika. U svakom slučaju, nisam želela da propustim ovonedeljni Matching Manicure pa sam se prilagodila većini :). Odlučila sam se za srebrnkasto šljokičastu/elegantno crnu kombinaciju, međutim loše vreme mi je upropastilo ovaj šljokičasti deo koji se uporno ne želi pokazati. Zbog toga je tu jedna mutna slika uslikana sa blicem koja vam može dočarati kako to treba da izgleda :).

Koristila sam : Essence - Super,Man i Miyo - Black.

French manicure is something that I don't like to see. Neither on my nails, nor on someone else. Maybe it's because it is to long "in" or maybe because it is too classy. Anyway, I didn't want to skip this weeks Matching Manicure so I did it :). I decided for silvery glitter/elegant black combination, but bad weather ruined that glitter part that didn't want to show up. That's why there is also one blurry picture taken with flash, so you can see how that is suppose to look like.

I used : Essence - Super,Man and Miyo - Black.

Ne zaboravite da pogledate french manikire koje su devojke danas pravile na linkovima ispod :).

Što se tiče moje nagradne igrice, još uvek proveravam podatke, tako da možete očekivati proglašenje dobitnica u naredna dva dana.

And about my giveaway, I'm still checking entries, so you can expect winners announcement in the next two days. 

Matching Manicure - Tribal

Mislim da sam ja bila ta koja je dodala Tribal na listu tema kada smo glasale... To mi je verovatno tada palo na pamet, ili sam negde videla, a onda jutros kada sam trebala da nacrtam nesto na ovu temu, stala sam i zapitala se, jel treba da se pravi tribal u smislu tetovaža tribala, ili tribal u smislu šarenih tribala koji su ove godine jako popularni na odeći. Pošto smatram crno-belu kombinaciju dosadnom, odlučila sam da ću da napravim ovo drugo, pa i ako promašim temu, barem sam se potrudila :D.
Iskreno, nije mi baš legla tema, a nije mi se ni svidelo kako je ispalo. Danas su mi definitivno previše drhtale ruke. Koristila sam Essence - Love of Pink i akrilne boje.

I think that I was the one that added Tribal on the list of themes when we voted... It probably crossed my mind then, or I saw it somewhere, and then this morning when I needed to draw something, I stopped and wondered, do I need to make something like tattoo tribal, or tribal like coloured tribal that are very popular on clothes this year. Since I consider black-white combination boring, I decided for second one, and if this wasn't a theme, at least I tried something new :D.
To be honest, I didn't really like the theme, and I don't like how it turned out. Today my hands were definitely too shaky. I used Essence - Love of Pink and acrylic paints.

Ugly Christmas Sweater

Jeste li primetili da u skoro svim (ako ne i svim) Božićnim filmovima nose ove ružne džempere sa Božićnim  motivima? Primetila sam ih i kod nas po prodavnicama, ali nikada nisam i poželela da ih kupim. Takođe, vidim da svi nose helanke sa ovakvim motivima ove zime.

Moje Bundle Monster Holiday pločice su stigle tačno dan posle Božića, što bi značilo da moram da čekam sledeću godinu da isprobam Božićne motive. Srećom, naš Božić je za 8 dana, tako da ću iskoristiti i ovaj međubožićni period za to :).

Koristila sam China Glaze – Ruby Pumps, Miyo – Black, Essence – Piece of Forever i BM-H01.

Did you notice that in almost all (if not all) Christmas movies people wear these ugly sweaters with Christmas patterns? I saw them here in stores but I never wanted to buy them. Also, I see that everyone wear pants this winter with these patterns.

My Bundle Monster Holiday plates arrived exactly day after Christmas, and I couldn't wait another year to try Christmas patterns from it. Luckily, in Serbia, we celebrate Christmas in 8 days, so I'm going to use this between Christmases period for it :).

I used China Glaze – Ruby Pumps, Miyo – Black, Essence – Piece of Forever and  BM-H01.

Izvinjavam se zbog malo lošijih slika, ali danas je u podne napolju bilo kao da je veče, bez zraka sunca, i nisam uspela da iskontrolišem blic fotoaparata.

I’m sorry for a little bit blurry pictures, but in the noon today, visibility was like it was night, there was no Sun, and I couldn't control my camera flash. 

Inspired by Ornaments

Još uvek me drži Božićno raspoloženje. Prošle godine kada sam crtala po novogodišnjim ukrasima lakovima za nokte, želela sam da napravim jedan sa kružnim linijama, ali mi nikako nije uspevalo. Veoma jednostavno izgleda, ali je teško napraviti potpuno istovetne po celom ukrasu. Slično sam planirala da napravim i na noktima ali sam imala isti problem. Do skoro, nisam ni primetila da ovakav uzorak postoji na Bundle Monster pločici BM 201. Da razbijem monotoniju, napravila sam jedan nokat sa uzorkom sa pločice BM 203. Kao i mnogo puta do sada, Essence - Piece of Forever se pokazao odličnim za pečatiranje.

I'm still in a Christmas mood. Last year when I drew on Christmas ornaments with nail polishes, I wanted to make one with circular lines, but it didn't work. It looks simple, but it is hard to make same lines on whole ornament. I also planned to make some similar on my nails but I had same problem. Recently, I noticed that there is pattern like that on Bundle Monster plate BM 201. And to add it a little twist, I made one nail with pattern from plate BM 203. Like many times before, Essence - Piece of Forever was great to stamp with.

Matching Manicures - V manicure - Christmas Style

Kako znate da bi trebalo da posvećujete više pažnje svojim noktima? Kada vam treba minut vremena da se setite šta je to ustvari V manikir, koji je ujedno i tema za ovonedeljni Matching Manicures. Sigurno svi već znate koliko ja obožavam Božić i sve u vezi njega, a već me je strah da neću stići da uradim toliko Božićnih manikira koliko inače radim svake godine, pa sam odlučila da počnem malo ranije. V manikir sam napravila takvim da potpuno odgovara Božićnom raspoloženju u kom sam ja, i već uveliko razmišljam o poklončićima za moje najdraže osobe.

Koristila sam moja tri omiljena Božićna laka (ukoliko su u pitanju crvena, zelena i zlatna boja naravno, jer imam i omiljenu Božićnu plavu, Božićne šljokice, itd.) : China Glaze – Running in Circles, China Glaze – Ruby Pumps i Essence – A Piece of Forever.

How do you know  that you need to give more attention to your nails? When you need a minute to remember what V manicure actually is, and this is also a theme for Matching Manicures today. You probably all already know how much I love Christmas and everything about it, and I’m already afraid that I won’t be able to do as many Christmas manicures like I usually do every year, so I decided to start a little bit earlier. I made V manicure to completely fit Christmas mood that I’m in, I even already started to think about presents for my dearest persons.

I used three of my favorite Christmas polishes (when we talk about green, red and gold of course; because I also have favorite Christmas blue, Christmas glitter, etc. ) : China Glaze – Running in Circles, China Glaze – Ruby Pumps and Essence – A Piece of Forever.
