finished with the scarf


here is the finished scarf for my mom complete w/ alpaca fiber peace sign

sinful lets meet and dream on

so today we have sinful lets meet - yellow w/ shimmer 3 coats and dream on- purple mat 4 coats it tends to dry a little streaky but since i was using the stripes i figured it didnt matter. im not happy with my pics they did not turn out as well as i thought they would. the yellow is more bright in real life and the purple is more purple. good color combo i thought though i also like the stripe colors. so ladies what do u think?

scrapbooking pages - picture heavy

So here are some pics of layouts i've done for my scrapbook. I really enjoy scrapbooking it can be an exspensive hobby but I try to use magazine clippings and lots of sales items to ley some of the cost. So few things you may not know about me I have lived at the Grand Canyon Natl. Park in Arizona. I worked for Xanterra and had the joy of living there from 2002- 2004. There are some scrap pages with some of my G.C. experiences. I am a great Titanic lover, long before the movie I enjoyed reading and hearing things about the Titanic. The movie just further fueled my passion I was lucky enough to get to visit the musuem in Branson,Mo. Most people know about Gizmo my maltese but here are a few pics of him when I first got him. Also some pics of the St. Louis Botanical gardens. Hope you enjoy. Gizmo's cleaning service

Milani CyberSpace

Today we have Milani CyberSpace!
Can we say holo goodness! This is blue almost a baby blue looks kinda blue grey tone in some light. Application was good I did 3 coats. Dry time was fast like most holos. I have had this on for about 9 days and chip wear is normal but not bad for being a holo so therefor no top coat. I am very impressed and would like to get more. I picked this up at meijer for 2.99 or 3.99 can't remember. They had a green, a purple and a gold but when I went back they only had the gold left. Since im not much of a gold person I left it behind. Would love to find that green though. I have a few of the China Glaze holos and I love them so this polish lived up to my holo standard and then some. A must have if u dont have any of the CG ones. Milani has put out some great collections and are available in most drugstores. Also there makeup is very good with a rich pigment I have some of there eyeshadows so i'll try and get a review up for that soon.
look at all that holo goodness
although the flash is on it is pretty true to color

(L - R) carnation, ocean, lime sparkle, paradise

I love NYX cosmetics they are great and there polish is awesome too

Cont...... Polish pics Sinful

Sinful Polishes - Great price, awesome color variety, mostly good application depending on the shade, I mean come on these people have been around forever they are deffinetly doing something right. Do you guys remember Daisy the Pig? Very old shade it was amazing I don't have it anymore but if any of u do can u post a swatch. Memories...... Sorry almost broke into song. Urge over moving on. Alot of these i've shown on the site some not but I will be reposting swatches of everything in my stash soon just wanted to get the bottle shots over with.
My only complaint is Sinful polishes take forever and a day to dry. I have heard this on many blogs so I don't feel so bad. Wonderful Sinful creators can u speed up dry time other than that please keep doing everything else u have been doing. Oh and re-launch Daisy the Pig and some of the other oldies but goodies. 5*****!!!!!
