I GIVE UP

I give up on creating some Easter nails!! Grrrrr - last night was my THIRD attempt at doing some Easter nail art, and once again it just wasn't working for me. This was my "if all else fails" go to plan. Decorate my nails to look like Easter eggs. bo-ring!




This one was my fave! :)







I know, not very exciting or original, but it wasn't for a lack of trying. I need to get my Easter creativity flowing though because every year at my dad and stepmom's house we have an Easter Egg coloring contest. This is a SERIOUS contest ladies, it's a no holds barred competition, complete with plenty of shit talking, lol! So I better get with the game if I am going to win this year. (I looked all over my computer for a picture of my "angel" egg I did two Easter's ago that won, but I can't find it, dang it!) I will take some pics of the eggs this year and share them with y'all!

    Last time I did it I was like 17 & in heels trying to find eggs because it had money in them haha.
    Easter egg decorating sounds like fun. I WANT TO SEE PICTURES!

    When I saw the title "I GIVE UP" then the pic next to it, I was like she's gotta be kidding! They looks awesome! Like the foil on easter egg candy! (that's gotta be bad for me that I am comparing it to candy- now I want candy!!)
    They look like holo-rific easter eggs! I love them!
    You should enter Nail Art Tuesday's Spring Fling contest with this!

    RAI - Shoot! Money in Easter eggs - you would see this 31 yr old knocking some kids over to snatch them eggs up! I don't play :) lol I will def. post pics of the contest :)

    NESSA - Thanks! They don't look bad, but I had the cutest idea and I just could not get it to work at all. I am going to enter these in since I told Jamie I would be entering, I just wish my original design would have worked.

    MARY - Thanks! Hey, my dining room chairs don't get cool between me doing my nails, my sisters and moms - may as well bring yours on over :)

    Brooke, I had to look at the title of your post three times! How could you say that, you did a beautiful job! Your nails look just like like foil wrapped chocolate eggs. They are adorable. Be proud of yourself, you did an amazing job. I'd like to know what you used and how you did it.
