zebra print..

so, as you may know..
I am practicing my animal prints ;)

today, I decided to go with Zebra..
I didn't want just normal black & white..
I thought about rainbow, but decided to use red, orange & yellow.

I'm rather happy with the way they turned out :)

I was especially happy with my gradient, on my accent finger:

colors used (for this gradient & the remainder of this deaign)

China Glaze "White on White"
CG "Japanese Koi" (orange)
CG "Sun-Kissed" (yellow)
and NOPI "Challenge Red-y"

& here is the completed mani :)

like I said in my last post.. I need to practice!! ;)

alright guys/gals.. see ya next time! ♥♥

My Nails: Long Story Short

all of my nails, from before this blog was started, are posted on my

Facebook:
www.facebook/KaylasCreativeCuticles

and my

Instagram:
www.instagram/KaylasCreativeCuticles

SO.. if you would like to see what I've "got goin' on" & all of that.. check out/follow/stalk one or both of those! ;)

as for this blog.. I will post all nails here, as well as on the afore mentioned sites, from tomorrow & beyond!! (beyond meaning, the foreseeable future)

if anyone has any requesta, feel free to comment.. if I have already done what you requested perhaps I will keep a list of them & then, once I reach a certain amount of accomplished requests, I will post a blog specifically of past manis..

however, if I haven't done a request, each one will have it's own blog ;)
(exceptions may be made.. i.e. of I get a request for Monsters Inc & Finding Nemo & 101 Dalmations & Rescuers, etc.. I would combine all of those manis in a singular "Disney Requests" blog.. or something like that)

so, yeah............ godnight y'all ♥♥

HELLO, Hello, hello.. (in my echoing voice)

so........ *awkward silence*

Hi.

this is my very first blog..

what do I write?

well, how about I start by telling y'all a little bit about myself:

my name is Kayla, obviously, right? ;)
I am 23 years & counting.. (birthday: November 23rd)
I have an AMAZING boyfriend (Eric), who I love with my entire heart, mind & soul!
& we have a 3, almost 4, year old son (Ty) who will be starting Pre-K in August </3

I started this nail art journey in June of 2012 & I never looked back!!
I plan on going to school in 2014, once Ty is in kindergarten.

I am very family oriented.. I have 5 brothers (1 older & 4 younger)
I was raised by my dad.. & my Mema (grandmother/my dad's mom) is my best friend!
my other best friend (aka best bitch), Kelly, is a friend I've had since I was a sophomore in high school!!! she is my soul mate!! we wouldn't know what to do without one another!! she is also considered family!!!

I LOVE football.. Go Gators & Go Jaguars!!!
I love to cook.
& I am a shutterwhore (something I came up with one day lol)
(( camera whore: someone who takes a lot of pictures of themselves... shutter whore: someone who just takes a LOT of pictures, period!! ))
every single wall in my house has at LEAST one picture on it.. but most have 2 to 15.. I have a million albums & scrapbooks!! I thought I was bad in high school, & then I had a kid....... lmfao

well, that's pretty much it.. nothing else is of utmost importance..
but, if there is anything you would like to know, feel free to ask..
now, that doesn't mean I WILL absolutely tell you, but I most likely will ;)
I'm a pretty open book!!

now.. enough about me.. tell me something about you!!!
my next post will most likely be of nails.. just figured I'd attempt to introduce myself & mayne gain a few followers & learn about them, before I really get started..
