It's my birthday!

For the second year in a row I'm all alone on my birthday.  To some that would be horrible, but to me it's nice.  I can stay home in my comfy clothes and not worry about anything.  I would like to be with my husband, but his work has him a few hundred miles from me.  So far Facebook friends have wished me happy birthday, and the cats haven't fought, so I'm considering this a good day!

I thought I'd do my nails with some birthday stamping.  Oh.  I haven't stamped in forever.  I can't remember which polishes work best (I should make a notebook), so I was guessing.  I wanted purple nails, but of all the purples, none really jumped out at me.  I selected an untried for my base, Zoya Suri, and put Emerald & Ash Terrible Twos over it.  It looks really nice, but then I stamped over it.  Meh.  Oh well. it's like a small dysfunctional party on my nails.  lol  I used Zoya Snow White and Bundle Monster plates bm-h19 and bm-h20.

It's my party and I'll cry if I want to.  So. Many. Bubbles.  Ugh!

I accidentally used a satin top coat over the stamping instead of a matte top coat, so they are slightly shiny.  I'm not about to put another layer on. The pretty purple I made is slightly lost with the stamping and top coat, so a pic of my unaltered right hand, to show the pretty purpleness.

Oh the horror!  Clean up is a nightmare using my non-dominant hand.

Poor right hand.  Does all the work, but doesn't always get the same pretty treatment.  At least I paint the nails!  I'm horrified to know that some people only do their non-dominant hand, and sometime not even the thumb.  Uh?  No, I do leave the house with my nails done.  All nails, not just the ones to get photographed.

I really should stamp more.  I need to be not so lazy also!
