New 31 Day Nail Art Challenge Photo Spam Post

So, our iMac died a painful death, and after two weeks, mi esposo finally got everything onto the MacBook Pro. I can't fathom devoting enough time all at once to getting caught up on posting the manis I've done for the challenge. So, here's what's been going on in Jenna-land for the past two weeks!

Merge or Melt: dripping ice cream cones!



Inspired by Fabric: This fabric was so loud! My nails were much more gaudy in RL, too. 



Inspired by Nature: crummy camera phone pic b/c I forgot to get a good one



Inspired by a Game: My 7-y-o requested Angry Birds. This was my first attempt at homemade polish decals. Not too bad!



Inspired by Your Childhood: I'm sorry, twee ickle girlies, but you were only a "child of the 80s" if you can actually remember the 80s!!  Spending the 2nd half of that decade learning to walk and talk does NOT count.  Here's a tribute to the popular neons, especially the electric-bright bobbie socks with lace on the edges!  (Can't believe I'm old enough to be seeing that trend come back...)




Inspired by Your Country: going down the toilet...


Inspired by You:  Got this idea from a piece of origami paper, a mottled greige and white background with stylized waves in mushroom brown. FYI, Sinful Colors Nirvana stamps like a dream.  Tada! (There isn't really a chunk missing from my thumbnail. No idea what trick of the light caused that...)


Inspired by Your Favorite Color:  My oldest helped me decide on this jelly sandwich, Sinful Colors Hottie, 2 coats with SillyLily Tequila Sunset in between. Oh gosh, I could not stop looking at these! They remind me of my kids' toys floating around in the pool on a sunny day!


Inspired by a Blogger:  One of the blogs I most enjoy and admire is Let Them Have Polish! Cristina is funny, friendly, honest, and soooo talented.  I've especially loved some of her manis with stamping over jelly or crelly sandwiches. This doesn't measure up (my pattern is too busy to show my frankened crelly -sammy really well) but I tried!

Whew! I'm caught up now!
