Blue's Clues Nails

Hello there guys!! Hope you are doing well; as you can tell I have Blue's Clues nail art today. I adored Blue's Clues as a child, I loved the show, I had the computer game (which was awesome, if my memory is correct, that's where I learned what magenta was) and generally I just really liked it with the handy dandy notebook and dat green stripey shirt. And since I like to do nail art of shows of my childhood I decided to give Blue's Clues a whirl cause Blue is really cute (original name for a blue dog but I'll let it slide, it works for the show's title).

So here we have the pivotal Blue with the logo and that classic red chair, which you probably couldn't tell was a red chair, I tried. However I'm really happy with Blue, she looks cute (Blue is a girl!!) and actually I really like the wallpaper print. It's a nice background to the design yet it's also familiar because of the show!! :)

For the wallpaper, I used the brush of the polish to do straight lines (I know they are not straight whatsoever, my hand gets a little jittery sometimes) then I got a toothpick to do the squiggly lines within. For Blue I used a mixture of polish brush and toothpick for the fine details. The paw was more just brush and obviously the letters were with a toothpick, my writing on nails is bad even though I think my writing on paper etc. is good.

Sorry for the crazy yellow lighting

Pink Panther Nail Art

Hello there guys!! Got some Pink Panther nail art today, now I haven't watched the new Pink Panther films but I know I watched one of the old ones and loved it. Unfortunately I have no idea which one it was, hopefully one day I'll find out cause it was so funny!! I remember one of the lines was something like "Maybe he's making me think it's a trap so it's not a trap, but it is a trap so that'll trap me but then maybe he doesn't want me to go so it's not a trap..." etc. etc. but then the villain said the same kind of thing. But in the end it was a trap. Any of you know which Pink Panther film that was?
I've had this on my to-do list for a while, but I always imagined that I'd be doing some kind of leopard print with it, not today!!

So there's the Pink Panther with some paw prints and a nice glitter accent. I think I could've painted more personality into my Pink Panther but I think I painted a more surprised version instead of a sneaky one. I do love The Teen Queen on my thumb, I think it's great over a darker pink, the shimmer goes crazy.

Sorry for the red-ish picture, it was bright that day
Painting over textured polish is different to say the least. I really just used toothpicks this time, the Pink Panther is hard to paint. Oh man proportioning, the ears aren't there and that's not because I wanted it that way, lots of touching up happened that day. I painted the outline in pink, that may be a first for me!!
