Still One Stroke Practicing

Hi girls,

I'm still alive, sorry for being away this much, but believe me, I was painting in these days a few nail tips, and here is what I did:

and couple of flowers on paper:

So, which one do you like more? My favorite is the 2nd one on the 1st picture :)

Just a little practice

Hi girls,

I did some practice with acrylic paint on nail tips, check them out! :)

Buna fetelor!

Am fost harnicuta si am pictat niste tipsuri sa ma mai imprietenesc cu vopselele acrilice. Pareri? :)

Abstract autumn nail art / Manichiua abstarcta de toamna

Hi girls :)

In today's nail art I wanted to try out something new for me: combining abstract with flowers. I remember there was some time ago a contest on YT with such a theme, and I was having since than the desire to try that out. I also wanted to try out my new acrylic paints (they are gooorgeous, Yuppiii), so I used nail polish only for base coat and top coat. I do not make a video of this nail art, because you wouldn't be able to see a thing, as my camera is so weak and the details are so small, I tried to catch some moment while I was doing this design in order to help you understand how it was made. If you have any question about it, please don't hesitate to ask me :)

This week I had so many subscribers, I want to say a big WELL COME to all the girls who just joined my channel, I'm really happy you're interested in my so called nail art. I'm trying to do nail art since a year, so I'm not a professional, as you probably already realized, but I have a great passion for nail art. I try to help other girls with the same passion, so I appreciate every opinion of yours, you might be more original, you might have better ideas, so please, free yourself free to share them with me. I'm waiting for your comments, opinion, you can leave me your blogs URL, I'd happy to see your works :) 

That's for today,

Take care,

Byeeeee

Dragele mele,

Astazi am un model in care am incercat sa combin abstractul cu floricele, folosind culorile toamnei. Pentru acest nail art am folosit doar vopsele acrilice (sa vedeti ca acrilice se folosesc si pt altceva decat one stroke), in afara de top coat si base coat, care evident sunt oje. 

De data asta nu qm inregistrat toata procedura de realizare, pentru ca detaliile sunt foarte mici si camera mea cu siguranta nu reusea sa redea mai nimic din ceea ce faceam. Dar am pregatit totusi niste poze in care sa va arat unele stadii de lucru pentru cei dornici sa copieze sau sa transforme in stilul lor acest model.

Cu titlu de NOUTATI vreau sa va spun ca am dat de niste acrilice superbe, intr-un final ma simt multumita de gradul lor de acoperire, de cat de repede se usuca si cum se intind. Am si luat decizia de a le importa, astfel incat in curand am sa va las si un link pentru cei interesati sa achizitioneze :) 

Saptamana asta foarte multe fete s-au alaturat blogului meu, cu aceasta ocazie vreau sa le spun BUN VENIT, sper sa gasiti informatii utile, surse de inspiratie sau alte informatii. In primul rand pentru ele vreau sa spun ca nu sunt o profesionista - cum probabil au si observat - imi fac singura unghiile fix de un an. Pasiunea mea in schimb pentru aceasta arta nu cunoaste limite, astfel incat daca aveti orice observatii, intrebari, comentarii, va rog sa ma intrebati linistite, pentru ca va raspund cu cel mai mare drag.

Atat pentru astazi,

Va pup dulce, aveti grija de voi :)

Ciaoooo

Purple manicure made with sponge technique

Hi girls,

I'm going purple today! :) I ♥ purple, all shades of it, and I also love pink, any kind of pink :P

So, I did a new manicure with purple gradient and some glitters (I ♥glitters) and I also draw some black motives on it. Actually, I'm not to good at sponge technique, so I wanted to keep practicing on this one. I also made a video, where you can see how I realized this nail art. I hope you'll enjoy it. Hm... I can't pay attention right now, I'm also watching a movie, so I'm gonna upload the pictures and the video, and let you enjoy it :)

Kisses! :)
P.s. If you have any question about it, don't hesitate to ask me :) 

 Buna fetelor!

Astazi vreau sa va arat un model mov, de fapt un model cu mai multe nuante de mov, un degradeu realizat cu tehnica "sponge" (burete). Trebuie sa va marturisesc, ca nu sunt f priceputa cu buretele, asa ca va rog sa considerati acest model ca unul de practica, urmand ca in viitor sa ma descurc ceva mai bine :) sper...:)  De data asta am inregistrat (si l-am si editat... ca de obicei aici apar problemele...) tot procesul pentru  cei carora ar putea fi de folos. Deja incep sa vorbesc aiurea, ma uit la un film asa incat atentia mea e injumatatita, ceea ce se si vede la frazele haotice pe care le tot scriu pe aici. Deci va las, aspetp parerile, intrebarile voaste si sper sa va placa.

Numai bine va doresc. Va pupic :)

2nd autumn design on french manicure

Hi girls,

Here is another autumn nail art design, a more simple one than it was the first. I made a creamy french nail first - so it's not white, it's a creamy french - maybe it is impossible to see this on the pictures, but I guess, it's important. After that I draw one leave on each nail with acrylic paint, than I gave the design some dynamic by the golden motives.

I'm not satisfied with this nail art, I feel like something is missing, like the whole picture, the whole idea it has nothing to say. The problem is that I just can't realize what is wrong with it, so if you have any idea, please, let me know! I'd really appreciate your opinions. Thanks in advance :) Byee...

Buna dragele mele!

 Iata inca un model legat de toamna, unul de rebut as zice, pentru ca sunt total dezamegita de acest model. Ca si baza am folosit un french cremos, deci nu alb, ci culoarea untului, pentru ca am senzatia, ca un french strident nu mergea nicicum cu culorile toamnei. desi in poza nu prea se distinge, tin sa mentionez acest detaliu pentru ca il consider destul de important. In rest, am pictat cate o frunza pe fiecare unghie cu vopsele acrilice, s-spoi am incercat sa misc un pic toata imaginea prin acele motive aurii conturate cu negru. Pntru ca nu sunt deloc multumita si am senzatia, ca modelul in sine nu are absolut nimic de spus, ca e un model de fara suflet, cum ar veni, va rog din tot sufletul, daca aveti ideei, sa le impartasiti si cu mine: ce-i lipseste modelului respectiv, ce trebuia sa fac altfel ca sa am o imagine cu continut pe unghii :) Va multumesc anticipat si va pupic dulce :) Ciaooo

Antique gold spirals

Hi girls,

Today I'm gonna show you guys a quick, easy nail art, a very elegant one. This week I was wearing simple black manicure, without any nail art on it, cause I love simple black nails.But before I cleaned my nails of it, I did a quick nail art on it, so I'm sorry, the basic black is not that beautiful after 4 days of wearing, than it was after I applied.

I also wanted to try out my brand new antique gold acrylic paint, so I decided to combine black with gold. Because these two colors gives the idea of elegance, I wanted to do a manicure with baroque influences.

I really hope you'll like it, so I.m waiting for your opinions :)

Byeee :)

Dragele mele, Astazi vreau sa va arat un model foarte usor de realizat, in doar 5-10 minute si fara sa fiti inzestrate de cine stie ce talent de artist. Dupa ce saptamana asta am purtat o manichiura simpla neagra, fara vre-un model pe ea, inainte sa-mi curat unghiile am decis sa mai fac un model rapid pe ele. Totodata voiam sa incerc si noile vopsele acrile pe care le-am luat de la Moyra. Legat de ele pot sa va spun ca au o calitate mediocra, gradul de acoperire medie, iar pretul se incadreaza exact la calitatea produsului: medie.

Va rog sa ma scuzat pentru baza neagra, care nu mai e asa frumoasa ca dupa aplicare, deoarece are deja o "vechime" de 4 zile pe unghiile mele.
Astept parerile voastre despre modele, fie ele chiar si mai negative sau chiar descurajante. O critica constructiva este intotdeauna binevenita :)
Va pup dulce:) Ciaooo

Nail art contest: FALL - the results ...Concurs de nail art: TOAMNA - resultatul.....

Hey ladies,

It's fall, it's beautiful outside, and it's also an important day for all those nail art lovers who participated to Tartofraises's nail art contest. I loved the theme, I took so many pictures of my nails, I'm gonna share all of it with you my dears. 

About the contest: I didn't win, I finished at 4th place, but I'm happy with it, because it means there were lots of people that loved my nail art :) And I had really great time doing it, taking pictures, so, I guess it's ok :)

My nail art represents the nature at fall time, the wood with it's wild beauty, it's unreached perfection. This is what I tried to symbolize. I painted some rose-hips, because it means free energy, food and helth given by the nature. I also did a dark brown french manicure with lots of glitters - different colors - just like it looks the wood in an early dewy, sunny morning. Just sparky :)

I didn't use stamp, even if it was allowed, because I thought iit's impossible to copy nature with some stamps... How unique nature can be in autumn, I'd love to try to copy it with it's imperfections as well :) Silly idea, I know, but this is me, kind' a old fashioned . Even if I saw some gorgeous nail arts realized with Konad, I still love freehand designs more than anything else :) 

I'm happy for my dear friend, Saori for winning 3rd place, congratulations, she realized a beautiful nail design, she managed so well the colors, so her fall is exactly where I'd love to be right now :) She's the only one who makes me want try out Konad stamping :P

 So this is enough spoke, let's see the pictures, cause I got so many! 

Inspired by tartofraises's gorgeous spiral nail-art

Hey guys,

I had to admit, I totally love spiral nail-art motives. You can see on tartofraises's blog some gorgeous spiral ideas for nail art that really turned me on. I feel like it's so aristocratic, so baroque, so absolutely elegant. You will feel just like a queen, when you'll wear such a nail art :) I also have to say that I hate gold color, and all the other colors that are close to gold. But when we talk about baroque, you can't think of anything else but GOLD... so, I toke my one and only Golden Rose nail polish, I used acrylic paint and my detail brush for the spirals. At the end I used a top coat, that it's not too shiny, to get a more antique sensation.

I hope you'll like it :)

At the end there is a special announcement I had to make: I won 3rd place on 3TanjaJ3's vacation theme nail art contest with the pink-black nail art design, I've posted on my blog at 03.07.2010

Dragele mele,

Trebuie sa recunosc ca ador modelele cu spirale... Am gasit pe blogul lui tartofraises niste modele uluitoare, care m-au inspirat si n-am rezistat tentatiei sa nu incerc un asemenea model si pe unghiile mele. Spiralele te duc inapoi in timp prin fluiditatea liniilor parca te trezesti intr-o lume aristocrata, cu atata eleganta si extravaganta. Dar vorbind de baroc nu ne putem lua gandul de nuantele aurii, bogate in lumina si sclipire.
Totodata vreau sa va marturisesc ca detest nuantele calde, tot ce tine de auriu, portocaliu, galben, consider ca nu mi se potrivesc. Nuanta tenului meu parca cere culori reci, puternice sau mai blande, dar sub nici o forma nuante de galben.
Totusi, neputand rezista tentatiei, m-am dat cu singura mea oja de nuanta aurie (de la Golden Rose), iar pentru a desena spiralele am folosit vopsea acrilica si pensula pentru detalii. In final am folosit un lac transparent aproape mat, pentru a crea o senzatie de autenticitate, de eleganta trecuta prin ghearele necrutatoare ale timpului (ohh, ..foarte plastic am reusit sa ma exprim) lol

Oricum, sper sa va placa :)
In sfarsit, am sa va dau o veste minunata:
Am castigat locul 3 la concursul lui 3TanjaJ3 pe youtube, al carui tematica era vacanta, iar eu am candidat cu modelul pe care il gasiti postat la data de 03.07.2010.

Red roses / Trandafiri rosii

Hey guys,

I have decided to make some changes on my blog. Here are the major changes:
1. From now on I will only talk about nail art, nail polishes, nail treatments and so on (all about nails) - it's quite normal, as it's a nail art blog... :)
2. I will write this nail blog on english as well. By the way I apologize in advance for my broken english, for all the grammatical mistakes .. sorry, I'll try to do my best :)
3. I will show you much pictures with my nail art designs, and I will try not to bore you with all my kind of a stupid stories :)

For this nail art design I used acrylic paints, it's a one stroke nail art design with flower motive, so just perfect for summer! Instead of rose if you will try this out with a lighter color as rose for ex. you will get a more girlie nail art.
As you can see, I cut my nails and I also gave to them another shape.. I've just needed a change:) It feels a little strange with my new-shaped "short" (lol) nails, but I'll get used with them. I also think that the older shape it was more feminine and much more easier to wear.


Dragele mele,

Mi-am propus niste schimbari (majore) sa le fac pe blog, dupa cum urmeaza"
1. De acum incolo nu mai fac pe scriitoarea si va povestesc toate ideeile mele fara vreao legatura cu nail-art, ci o sa abordez teme ce tin de manichiura, nail art si ingrijirea mainilor si a unghiilor.
2. Am sa incerc sa traduc si in engleza ce am de spus, pe aceasta cale imi cer scuze pentru greselile gramaticale pe care veti sesiza cu siguranta... Oricum sa stiti, ca imi dau toata silinta :)
3. De acum incolo am sa va arat mai multe poze cu modele, decat sa va tin cu povesti nemuritoare :) lol

Asadar, ca sa si trec la subiecy: Pentru acest model amfolosit doar vopsele acrilice si tehnica one stoke. E super-potrivit pentru vara datorita motivelor florale dar si a cromaticii. Pentru o aparenta mai tonica incercati pe un fond roz.Dupa cate ati observat, mi le-am schimbat forma unghiilor, nu le mai port ascutite, ci le-am dat forma patrata. Sper sa ma obisnuiesc cu ele, desi mi-e dor rau de unghiile mele ascutite, care sunt mult mai feminine si mult mai usoare de purtat.
