The Digital Dozen does Texture - Day 4: Fuzzy Violets?


Hello, all! Anyone else exhausted? ;) I'm pressing on though and have day four of Digital Dozen textures week! I really wasn't sure what I was going to do for today's mani, but I knew that I wanted to use the purple flocking powder I mentioned in yesterday's post. I thought it would be a fun way to add texture to today's mani and since I've never used, it gave me a chance to try something new.  

I decided to start searching online for fuzzy purple things...and then just purple things...and then, since I was sad about taking off yesterday's mani, I searched for purple flowers figuring I could replace one flower with another. And violets were one of the things that showed up!

The Digital Dozen does Texture - Day 3: Sunflower Nail Art


Hi everyone! Day 3 of the Digital Dozen is upon us and I've got some hand painted sunflowers to share with you all today :) 

This has been a tough challenge week for me and I'm flying by the seat of my pants to an extent as I don't know what I'm doing until the night of. I was trying to think of things I wanted to paint, and then see if I could fit that to meet the "textured" theme...and since I love my florals, I wanted to paint flowers. 

I started thinking about flowers with a lot of texture and sunflowers came to mind immediately. Not only are their petals full of interesting ridges, the seeds in the center provide a ton of textural interest.

The Digital Dozen does Texture - Day 2: The girl in the wind


Hi, all! I'm so excited for how day 2 of Digital Dozen texture week has turned out! When I got home from work I was so stumped as to what to do, I frantically started searching the web for inspiration. After coming up empty handed, I decided to shower and wash away the sweat from the gym earlier in the evening and as I was doing so, I had an epiphany! I should think on manis in the shower more often haha 

Anyway, my epiphany was hair. Yes, normally I would cringe at the thought, but I mulled it over a bit more and the idea of painting a girl, with her hair blowing in the wind wouldn't leave my mind's eye. When I got back to my desk I browsed the web to solidify my idea in my mind and came across this beautiful drawing of a girl with hair I'd kill for and who became my inspiration.

The Digital Dozen does Texture - Day 1: Metallic Tribal


Hello, all! This coming week may very well be my busiest nail art week ever! It's Digital Dozen week once again (this time our theme is Texture!) and I'm continuing on with the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go challenge today and Thursday. Since that's not enough, I'm hoping to also squeeze in a few Easter themed manis! Can someone put more time in the day for me?? 

Very exciting news in the Digital Dozen world is that we have 4 new extremely talented ladies joining our ranks! I can't wait to see what they come up with and I know we will enjoy having them be apart of the group. I can't believe that this is my 6th DD week. Time sure does fly.
