My Nails: 092409

Had alot of time on my hands at work. First I started to paint my nails black. Then thought I up it a notch with gold and silver glitter. Then y e a h . . .

OPI Bit of Music Glitter Topcoat
OPI in Sea You Later, Sailor
OPI Text Me, Text You Glitter Topcoat
Ten random colors of striping paint.

Dreamy Cakes

I love watching The Food Network Channel. My favorite shows would have to be Ace of Cakes and Food Network Challenge (Cakes). I love cake and I love art. I could watch these two shows over and over. Oh yeah, I also like Cake Boss, which I believe is on TLC or Bravo channel.

I watched this one episode of Food Network Cake Challenge. The theme was Fashion Cakes. They contestants had to make fashionable cakes that reflects the clothing brand, Alice + Olivia. Then rookie challenger, Alexandria Pellegrino won. =) I love love LOVE her decorating style. I’ve seen pretty much all the cake shows, and she is my favorite decorator.

This isn’t the cake she decorated for the Food Network Challenge, but you can get the idea of her style. I love how she paints directly on the cake and has model add-ons too. Kinda like mixed media. The figures she makes are absolutely gorgeous. I’m sure she does other figures, but I think she really favors fashion from the 18th century. I love watching movies and the costumes of that era. I wanna dress up like that one day. ^_^ I wouldn’t know where I would wear it to. Lol. Probably Halloween.
Anyway…
from the look of the first picture, she seems like a very stylish person herself.

I would have to say that my dream cake (for a big occasion) would be by her or Charm City Cakes.

Strawberry Swing


VideoPlaylist
I made this video playlist at myflashfetish.com

I love Coldplay’s videos. I especially love this one! VERY creative. ^_^

I’m not getting married anytime soon, but this (<-click) is really cool. I remember making those carve-out stamps in high school. I should play with those.

Just got finished doing my nails. =) Great look if you’re going out to chill on the water.

Overall color: China Glaze in Sky High-Top

For the dotted anchor, I used a yellow craft paint with a metal dotter, but you could use a pointed toothpick. I used craft paint because if I mess up, I just wipe/brush off the paint with water/alcohol. Just make sure your nails are pretty dry before you put the design on.

For the “rope” I used a sparkly silver striping paint.
