Mani Monday: Do You Wanna Build a SnowMan? Featuring Olaf from Carpe Noctem Cosmetics and MOAR Drunk Stamping!

*Purchased*

   Hello Lovelies!
   I am back again with another installment of Mani Monday! This time featuring the awesome Limited Edition Group Custom from Carpe Noctem Cosmetics, Olaf!


Yup, that is right this awesome guy right here...
And if you have small children or live anywhere near my house you can automatically hear my youngest bellowing this song...


You know it too.. Cause everyone is singing it..EVERYONE

  So as always I am super excited over any limited edition group custom that Emily from CNC makes however this was super exciting since I will admit that I am a fan as well.


Yup, that's right I am a fan...
   Yup, you read that right that, I am a fan of Frozen. I don't know if am getting soft in my old age and that my cold black gothic heart is thawing. Or the fact that my daughter belts out the songs to this movie like some drunken karaoke goddess who doesn't care if she gets most of the words wrong. She is just loves the singing it damn it and it has chipped away the last slivers of my sanity... But I knew that Olaf had to be mine..

And I danced just like this back from the mail box when I opened it up..

It is a gorgeous pale frozen (yeah, you knew that word was going to be thrown in here somewhere so just let it go...^_~ ) blue with a pink shift and the perfect dash of holo to almost bring it to life on your fingers.  So I wanted to do some magical stamping on it to make it almost as kick ass as Elsa's ice magic. Cause honestly, who wouldn't want that kick ass power? And this is what happened, it isn't as awesome as Elsa, or Olaf, but maybe as cool as Sven...




I used the following products on this mani:
Opi Nail Strengthening Base Coat
Pure Ice Superstar!
Vapid Lacquers Fast Drying Top Coat
Born Pretty Stamping Plate 03 Used Code KLH10 for 10% off your order and free shipping

While my stamping is still left to be wanting, I did get the new Messy Mansion Super Soft Stamping Heads and they are incredible! New Review for them is upcoming as well! 
While Olaf did disappear there is still HOPE!
    The chance to order the group custom Olaf is gone, if you really need it and MUST have it you can still order it as a custom polish option from Carpe Noctem Cosmetics cause Emily is THAT awesome. You can purchase Olaf (as a custom polish only) from Carpe Noctem Cosmetics on Etsy. You can also follow her on Facebook, her Facebook Fan Page and on Instagram! So until next time lovelies stay warm, polish your nails and watch Frozen!

A little bit of lace with some blackened amethyst.

*Purchased*
Hello Lovelies!
   Welcome back to another installment of Mani Monday and MOAR drunk stamping. I swear that I will eventually get this stamping deal down however I still haven't quite perfected my technique. So while I am struggling you can feel better about your own nails. ^_~

 The struggle is real and especially worse with stamping...


    The holidays are gearing up with Thanksgiving this coming Thursday. Mr Dreadful is off for a week and I have to get my holiday back on to visit my parents. We take the Dreadful horde over to their house and celebrate Thanksgiving there and then celebrate Christmas here.  However like from my previous post, I am HATE the holiday shopping ordeal.


See that vacant look...not happening


Yup totally staying home...

  Mr Dreadful is hoping to snag some Black Friday deals and that is ALL him. I am staying home away from people and working on my manicure and stamping. I may even do a makeup look or two. But I am not going ANYWHERE near a store.
That is right Godzilla, fuck that shit..


I will however hit the web for some awesome Cyber Monday deals cause some are just too good to pass up. But enough chattering about the holidays and on with the thing that you came here for..NAILS!

You can even see the epic Holo through my craptacular stamping!


I used the following products for this manicure
Opi Strengthening Base Coat
Vapid Lacquer's Blackened Amethyst
Gothic Gala Lacquers Basic White Stamping Polish
Born Pretty Chic Lace Stamping Plate BP-02  (Use Discount Code KLH10 for a discount off your purchase and free shipping)
Vapid Lacquer's Fast Drying Top Coat

   This was my first time using the Born Pretty Stamping Plates and I was extremely pleased with how well they stamped. There will be a review on them coming up in the near future after I survive the holidays. If you are wanting to pick up Blackened Amethyst from Vapid Lacquer you can do so here. You can also follow her on Facebook, on her Facebook Fan Group, and even on Instagram. I hope that you enjoyed this version of Mani Monday! Until next time lovelies...
