**May Contain Press Samples**  Happy 4th of July my fellow Americans!! I am so excited about this holiday as it's one of my favorites! The colors, the food, the fireworks, the fun! All of it is just so uplifting and everything I love in a holiday!  For my manicure, I went with something easy but very patriotic. I got these USA stamp plates a very long time ago and I only use them a couple time a year. They are no-named brand but I love them! They pick up so nicely and lay down even better.   Colors Used: Sally Hansen- Midnight Affair Sally Hansen- Rhapsody Red L.A. Girl- Celebrate Zoya- Aspen Happy Independence Day!!

You Deserve to Be Pampered.

Since I spammed you all with my designs from the last couple of days, I am going to keep this short and sweet!! This is the actual design I am wearing today. I was going to go really simple, but what is a holiday without some glitz??   For this simple design I used some glitter, stamping and some festive colors. It was super simple and looks super awesome! Colors Used: Orly- Sweet Peacock Orly- Red Carpet Colors Club- Over the Moon L.A. Girl- Celebrate OPI- Gettin' Miss Piggy With It ellagee- Festival of Lights JustRica- Whiteout YouPolish- Sexy M.F.   I did the Red Carpet as a base and the Gettin' Miss Piggy With It on top. It is a great combo and it WILL make a reappearance for #RedCoatTuesdays.  I used the Sweet Peacock under Festival of Lights. It's a very multi-holiday glitter.  I then stamped with the color Club and YouPolish on my middle two fingers. I got the YouPolish as a OOAK custom. There is nothing ...

And yet more Red, White and Blue

For this quick and easy design, I stamped a couple patriotic designs and glittered the heck out of my ring finger. I really like the USA colors of red, blue and white. I think they work really well complimenting each other and just look so sharp. Go USA!! I stamped a USA star on my index finger and topped it with Finger Paints flakie. For my middle finger, I stamped stars in both red and blue. For my ring finger, I glittered the heck out of it with LA Girl- Celebrate, large loose star glitter and the Finger Paints flakie. For my pinkie, I stamped a star burst in red and then stamped silver stars on top.  Colors Used: Orly- Star Spangled Orly- Sweet Peacock Revlon- Sequin L.A. Girl- Celebrate Rica- Whiteout Finger Paints- Twisted

For this design I wanted to do American flags and use all different mediums. Last year, I did a sugar spun flag, so I wanted to expand a little and see what other technique I could use to create a flag. I used striping tape to make a nice crisp striped design on my index finger. Next, I did my original sugar spun flag on my middle finger. For my ring finger, I did a dot design and finally for my pinkie I did a water marble.  My pinkie was IMPOSSIBLE to perfect and I wanted to back out as soon as I started. It was super difficult to get the "stars" area defined. Striping tape, sugar spun and dots were all super easy to do, but the water marbling- what was I thinking?  Anyway, what do you think of my multi-medium flag design?? Colors Used: Sinful Colors- Ruby Ruby Revlon- Royal Sinful Colors- Snow Me White
