This is my swatch for OPI DS Magic. These are some of my favorites from OPI. This color was so hard to capture on camera. The photos look brighter. It is a gorgeous deep blue with light blue glitter, holo glow and purple. It looks stunning as you move around in the light.
I applied a base coat, Butter London nail foundation. Then two coats of OPI DS magic. One coat fully covers but two coats made it look even shinier and prettier. Can't wait to try DS Reserve a pink with iridescent holo glitter.
I love this color. OPI is my favorite polish lately. Not just the amazing colors, but creamy formula, lasts long, applies amazing and haven't had one shade let me down.
Before I went shopping and made my opi wish list I googled photos of colors and went on pinterest to mark my favorites. Can't wait to swatch Miami Beet, Honk if you love OPI and Teal the cows come home:). Thank you Barb. You rock. Love them all.
Looking for a new nail buddy, just got one new one but after holidays two moved and one I lost contact with. Let me know if anyone is interested in swapping or making wish lists to exchange. I am finishing my inventory list and making a new wish list. I am looking for some indie and rare brand polishes that you can't find in stores. Dying to try England and Essence brands too.
Enjoy photos was so hard to capture true color, it looks a lot brighter and lighter then it really appears in person and is gorgeous. Great work OPI:).

Pink Wednesday for Breast Cancer Awareness
I wanted to post these earlier but been super busy finishing up my final three wreaths for Halloween since it is approaching so quick. I will have photos to share tomorrow and hopefully will have them up for sale on my etsy shop no later then Friday:) they are pretty cool and I can't wait to share them. I will throw in a smell peak after my photos for pink Wednesday.
So today I ran to the beauty supply, wanted to hit ulta but they don't open till ten and I had errands to do do the beauty supply opens at 9. I go to a dazl beauty supply in pembroke pines and love it:). The staff is so friendly and the sales girl is always showing me photos of new stuff coming in and photos of polishes she has bought which helps me decide what colors to get. I grabbed two new polishes then had a couple I got last week. I went with these two shades cause I love the light pretty shade for the under coat then the Milani pink and silver sparkles is gorgeous:).
I already have my colors and planning to do a design next week. Last week before this all started I posted a photo of some pink ribbon nail tattoos my girlfriend gave me and everyone asked me where they can be found. I actually found some on an end cap full of pink ribbon and Breast cancer awareness goodies. They have stickers for your car, iron on shirt designs, bracelets, pendants, pins and the nail tattoos. They are only $2.00 and proceeds go to research for breast cancer.
I did a base coat of butter London nail foundation then two thick coats of OPI, In the spotlight pink. Once dry I applied two thin coats of Milani Pink Flare gorgeous sparkle polish. This is such a gorgeous top coat. I recommend both to everyone, the OPI color is super sheer and would be great for a French manicure as well. I did two thick coats cause I was covering with sparkles but if I wore it solo may have needed three or four coats to not see the nail line underneath.
Enjoy the photos and look forward to seeing what all the other ladies did for the first Wednesday. Have a great week, weekend is almost here. Goodnight

Below is the sneak peek at one of my new wreath designs, I have this awesome candle opera style, haunted house looking tassel I had left over from last year when I made my wreaths that I am going to hang in the center then I have more black glitter roses. I can't wait to finish it. I also have another really cool one in the works. I made my first Etsy sale, I am working out the details and on shipping cost but should be finalized tomorrow. I am so excited. I have been selling a lot of Halloween and Fall decor. I can't wait to share my baked goods and photos of what I have done to my front porch and yard. It is almost all done just have to put up the light up stuff this weekend. Can't wait to show it all off=). I love decorating and making crafts, baking etc it is my passion=). It makes me feel very good cause I know I have a talent that I am really good at.
For more details on my items for sale you can visit my Etsy shop, storenvy, or contact me direct at dlitefulcreations@ymail.com. I custom make wreaths also and I will work with any budget, I can make an amazing wreath for $40, and I can do them for even less just going to be smaller sized and less detail. Everything I make I put time and a lot of love along with creativity, pride and quality. You will not be disappointed. I promise=).

Amazing finds nail polish
I was back to school shopping for my daughters when I stumbled upon some amazing new colors and a couple brands I never saw at of all places, TJ Maxx and Marshall's:)! I have bought OPI and Nicole by OPI several times there for 2.99-3.99 a bottle, this day I found Essie and Deborah Lippmann! Was very happy:).
My color collection has grown a lot cause my almost teen daughter is also obsessed with nail polish, like mother like daughter I guess:). I use to buy her inexpensive cheaper brands but they would stain her nails and also she would have to repaint them all the time. Back a little over a year ago I was looking for some bed head products and perfumes, that is when I stumbled upon the nail polish at Marshall's then realizing tjmaxx is associated with Marshall's decided to check there. If you are looking for some new colors for your collection or inexpensive polishes for younger kids this is the spot. Also they have an amazing selection of hair products, flat iron and curling irons and brand name perfumes of course none are new products but if you are like me I wear a lot of perfumes and colors that have been out for awhile so why not save save save:).
I was bored and went ahead and painted my nails this opi Nicole color and used the Deborah Lippmann color for an accent nail added a perfect little shimmer almost iridescent look. Will post the name of the colors below:). Doing my best to catch up on posts and add photos since I got so behind on vacation. Lots more to come so stay tuned
Did a clear base coat Sally Hansen
Two coats of Nicole by OPI Girl Talk
On ring finger Deborah Lippmann Oh! You pretty things (juicy couture collection)
Top coat Sally Hansen insta-dry
