ugly sweater nails
This combination would actually work of it was a pink sweater with beige or brown polka dots, its hard to even find a beige sweater and pink polka dots
What I used:
konad stamping scraper and stamper
konad plate m84
konad plate m79
konad pink polish
OPI~Don't pretzel my button 
China Glaze~I'm not lion
You can always do polka dots by using dotting tools too

Dreamy stars
I used previous manicure as a base to create this look
The pattern is made with:
  • Konad white polish
  • Konad plate m84
  • Konad stamper and scraper
I loved the jelly, adding stars to it just feels right. What do you think?

jelly of all the franken jellies, u too?
Lately I saw a lot of pretty franken/indie jellies and I became very jelly myself but the costs to get them to me become very high :(
so here's my solution to get the look :)
what you need:
  • sheer polish (OPI~Care to Danse)
  • pink glitter polish (Essie~A cut above)
  • silver holographic glitter polish (China Glaze~Techno)
apply base coat to minimize color staining (I used Essie~Grow Stronger)
  1. sheer polish (2 coats of OPI~Care to Danse) - number of coats base on opacity preference
  2. pink glitter polish (1 coat of Essie~A cut above)
  3. silver holographic glitter polish (1 coat of China Glaze~Techno)
  4. sheer polish (1 final coat of OPI~Care to Danse) - number of coats base on opacity preference
here is what it looks like from step 3 to 4, I thought about stopping at step 3 because it was already quite pretty :) but i was set on a jelly look so...
