It's Caturday! Er, Wednesdecat! Wekittenday?

Hello, Fireflies!

In keeping with this month's NCC theme of, "Pets," I've created a nail art influenced not only by a pet I had growing up, but also a beloved icon of the Interwebs - the cat.

I see you, kitteh

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's nail art came about because someone asked in a nail group if anyone could do this cat tutorial.  I tried.  It was hard.  I think a lot of the cats kinda look like the rabbit mask from Donny Darko.

I found this cat eye nail art from Kayla Shevonne, and I thought it would go well with the cats, and make this more Halloween-y!  I think they're my fave part of the mani. I like how the dot of Joss Desert Sunset glitter makes the eyes shine!

Ever go as a cat for Halloween?  My husband and I went as Rottweilers once.  Someone asked if we were aliens. 

What The Cartoon Cat Consumed..

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's challenge was to stamp a mani using only single images - no full nail stamps.  This is where having nubs comes in handy - a single image usually takes up my whole nail anyway!

When I put on this gorgeous glitter the other day, I had no idea it would become the base for this cute stamping challenge.  This is To The Edge Of Night from Fanchromatic Nails.  At first glance, it's an army green jelly with silver glitters - but look again, and you can see the tiny turquoise and red glitters in the background. 

I used two stamps for this challenge.  The single fishbone stamp from Red Angel 107, and the cat from Shany 08.  I used Essie No Place Like Chrome and Wet 'n Wild Black Creme for the stamping.

Now, my nails look like an ally cat's paradise.

I'm reminded of the cartoons I watched as a kid, where the cartoon cat would put a whole fish in his mouth, and then pull out the bones, all in one fell swoop!

Ah, to be surrounded by a feast of our favorite foods! In the aftermath, I would be surrounded by pizza crusts...

Kittens Tangled Up In Yarn

Hello, Fireflies!

Today's Sunday Stamping challenge was to stamp over a purple.  Ok, here's my purple, Nikka K NY113, a soft lilac creme:

I used multiple stamps from plate YH809.  First, the one on the left that looks like flowers made of string, and then the different cat stamps on the right.

Black cats stamped with Cult Nails Nevermore:

Hey, I'm just fulfilling the primary use for the Interwebz: cat pictures.

Aw, they're so cute when they're playing, getting all tangled in the yarn.  Awwwww.

So.Many.Cats.  I'm a craaaazy cat lady!

Are you a cat person or a dog person, both, or neither?  I grew up with cats, now I have dogs.  Interwebz animals of all kinds are totes adorbz, though, right?
