Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: Z for Zebra

Hello guys! Well I finally finished my Alphabet Nail Art Challenge. I never thought I would see the day. As for today's post is Z for Zebra. As usual I didn't want to do the same design I've seen every where. I also wanted to include something more floral, and what better way to combine the two. 
  To get this look I was browsing through various of websites, and stumbled a few pictures that had a combination of floral and zebra prints. I mixed most of the florals into one design. I didn't want the floral to be the main focus, which is way I left two zebra designs. So lets get to it:

Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: Y for Yin Yang

Good evening lovelies! For today's post I have another Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: Y for Yin Yang. One more letter and I've completed my challenge...Yay! I'm pretty happy and sad about it, since I now have to start thinking of nail art ideas to do, but happy it's finally done. When I started off this challenge I was completely blocked. I really had no idea what to do. 
I knew for sure I waned to something completely different from what I've seen. As usual I was browsing online and saw two yin yang patterns, I believed would be great for my nails. So I did two different designs. The first one I did was black and white, with a tribal and floral look. I wasn't really into it so I've opted for a galaxy look. Which I liked more and hopefully guys too. So here it is:

Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: W for Floating Heart Water Marble (Part 2)

Hola amigos! Well this is my part two of my Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: W for Water Marble. I loved how part one of my water marble design came out, I couldn't resist to try again. I even wanted to create a Valentines Day theme, with the hearts and half moon (and of course pink nails).
I'm still getting used to creating a marble designs, but I really liked how it turn out. Especially, how feminine it looks. The marble didn't turn out how I wanted to look, but I made it work with the golden accent designs. So lets get to it:

Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: W for Water Marble (Part 1)

Hi Guys! Put on some sunglasses on, it's going to get really bright in here...haha! Well more like neon bright. For today's post I have another Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: W for Water Marble. I have two parts in this challenge since (believe it or not) its my first time ever doing water marbling. I know!
 I've never been interested in doing this method when I started my nail art journey. I always felt it was too much work and it is! However, it can definitely be addicting. Once you start it's as if the nail art gods are pressuring you to be perfect at it. And for sure I was tempted to perfect water marbling. So here it is:

Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: O for Owl

Hi Everyone! It's beginning to look like Christmas...well the malls and outlets are. I can't believe were in the first week of November, and all of the stores are coming out with Christmas decorations. Can't wait for Black Friday, all those sales! Well I was shopping the other day and saw these cute wrapping papers on display, so many Christmas inspirations. 
One particular wrapping paper caught my eye, which became my inspiration for my next Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: O for Owl. I loved the color combinations. Even the owl was cute. I just knew I had to do my nails on them. Here they are:

Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: N for Notes

 Hey Everyone! Well it's time for my next Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: N for Notes...well music notes in fact. I did something different and meaningful to me. For this theme I wanted to do music notes. One thing many people don't know about me, I play the piano.
I'm a little rusty after years of not playing or practicing, but I"m pretty good once I get the hang on it. I for one have been waiting for the right time to do these, so why not now. Looking at these really has me wanting to play again. Either way here they are:

Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: M for Mosaic

Hey everyone! Guess is that time for another Alphabet Nail Art Challenge...M for Mosaic. I just love doing mosaic nails, don't you?! I've done many mosaic nails on my past nail art. However, this one is quite different. For one it's bordered and two I've always wanted to try my skull nail charm, I had for months now.
I really loved how it turned out. I've been brainstorming on how to create this mani, but it turned out more than I expected! Hopefully all of you as much as I did! It will be difficult for me when I will have to remove them. :( So here it is:

Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: L for Lettering

**Purchased & Provided**

Hey everyone! I thought to stick with the Halloween theme for my Alphabet Nail Art Challenge. So for today's post I have L for lettering. This is actually the first time I have ever created a mani based on letters. Sure I have written words in few of my other designs, but this was completely different. I did have a difficult time coming up with a nail art design to do, for this challenge.

I wanted something spooky. And why not spiders. I hate spiders! These words can be my true expression when I see one. I try really hard not to kill it when I see it (yes I'm one of those people), but I can't help to stomp one! If it's on a cage I have no problem with it. However, I guess I can say this a dedication to them...hehe!

Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: I for Ice Cream

**Purchased by Me**
Hey Everyone! It's time for another Alphabet Nail Art Challenge! I for Ice Cream. I'm obsessed with this mani. You guy's have no idea how long I've been wanting to do this. I think the key as a nail artist/blogger is to always draw your ideas. It's important especially if your like me, who wakes up from sleep, with a nail art idea. This was definitely one of them. 
During the summer I've purchased a few 3D nail charm's from this amazing website MK Beauty Club. They have everything, even unique 3D nail charms you can't get anywhere. Trust me I would know, I've looked! So I took up the chance to use one of the charms for this challenge & here's what I've done:

Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: H for Houndstooth

**Purchased by Me**
Hola amigos! Who doesn't love a houndstooth?! I do! It's a beautiful design that can be worn with anything. It's has been ages since I have done a houndstooth design. There are loads of tutorials on YouTube. So for today's Alphabet Nail Art Challenge: H for Houndstooth.
 I wanted to create a ombre effect. It was a little complicated. This is a design, for sure, you will have to continue practicing (I know I did!) But once you have, the effort is well worth it.
