200 followers and some bug pokemon!

I broke 200 here on the blog! That's so exciting! I appreciate all of the nail friends, so thank you for being here!


As for TODAY! Shorter post. This week on the pokemon nail challenge:

BUGS!

now, while not my favorite pokemon type (really, Viridian Forest was my least favorite place) the bugs certainly have interesting designs! And I picked the better of the two cocoon pokémon, Kakuna!

Almost incapable of moving, this POKéMON can only harden its shell to protect itself from predators.

Used Manglaze Fuggen Ugly as a base!

Chg Happy Go Lucky, Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow,  Sinful Snow Me White and Chg Liquid Leather

Topped the ring and pinky with Poshe to be consistent! (I didn't feel like matting out the art! ^_^)

What's that in the tall grass~?

Hello, Nail Friends!

It's dangerous out there without a pokémon! Wild oddish are in the grass! But can you tell which is a pokémon and which is just a plant?

Hint: one of these are pokémon! (the one you can barely see!)

Take it away, Dex!

"Oddish. The "weed" pokémon. During the day, it keeps its face buried in the ground. At night, it wanders around sowing its seeds." (Source: http://pokemondb.net/pokedex/oddish)

Thanks.

That's RIGHT! It's week one of the Pokémon nail challenge! Hosted by yours truly and Sharra from The Blahg, this challenge is a pokémon a week from each of the different types. This week is Grass-type pokémon and I chose Oddish! (He was a very popular little guy this week, scoring 1st place in number of nails he adorned!)

And he's SO happy to see you!

For this mani I used:

a teeny paintbrush

China Glaze Liquid Leather

Cult Nails Manipulative

Sinful Colors Snow Me White

China Glaze Salsa

Zoya Shawn

Sinful Colors Innocence

Zoya Skylar

China Glaze Aqua Baby!

Who wants to geek out with us?

Hey there, Nail Friends!

So if you've poked around the blog a bit, you may notice a tab up top there that says "Gotta Catch 'Em All!" I have made it my goal to eventually have painted every one of the original 151 pokémon on my nails. 4 down. a LOT to go!

This pokéball crocheted by the AWESOME sami of Teliches! (IT SQUEAKS)

That's right. I love pokémon. I SAID IT! (haha like you didn't already know.) At any rate, I love pokémon and I love nails and you know what? I'm NOT THE ONLY ONE! Sharra from The Blahg and I came up with a super fun, super awesome way to show our need to be the very best!

A NAIL ART CHALLENGE!
