King Tut never looked this good!


WOW - WOW - WOW! I can't believe this is on my nails, and better yet - *SINGS LOUDLY" I love it! My first bottle of Jessica Polish is King Tut's Gem............whoa, Pharaoh.
I was really just swatching a bunch of polishes this morning (like always) and this one really stood out!
(in sun, er, I mean snow light)

this is with flash and my studio constants lights....not nearly as pretty or true to it's fab color. This blue is a glorious peacock shade, not a tinge of purple or periwinkle....it's definitely worth having this in your "arsenal".


But soon after, I changed colors to get ready for the West Virginia University Basketball game tomorrow.....


It's a coat of Diamond Cosmetics Base (OOOOOH DO I HAVE NEWS!) and two coats of CG Bermuda Breakaway. Then I free-handed a couple of stripes with Art/Deco Gold Glitter and added a little rhinestone to each finger. Two coats of Seche finished it off....

The more I look at this mani, the more I think it would have been better suited for a day on the yacht....a little nautical....but since I spent 30 minutes on it, I guess I'll keep it until after the game. :)

I got a mail haul today from Diamond Cosmetics - gonna swatch them later.

UGH, no not my favorite Boots......

Well, the Mountaineers lost to Georgetown (SHOCKER) last night 72-55. After handing Connecticut a loss, I thought for sure that we could take the Hoyas. Oh, well.....it's just a game, at least that's what the Commish told me.....


Here's what killed us.....













But, through all the BBall madness, I did get to a little shamrock love. I decided to make these little pins for each kid in roo's Kindergarten class. Fridgie pattern turned pin pattern. I know, I know - "that's sooooo 70's", but the kids love them.





Here's where I found it......http://suzies-yarnie-stuff.blogspot.com/2006/03/my-shamrock-pin-pattern.html

THANKS, SUZIE!!!!!

I woke up this morning to the roo watching the Spiderman trilogy - in order, of course. As we were watching #2, Doc Ock and Spidey are in the final scene debating how to shut down the machine, laser beams are firing all around, and my roo said: "Mommy. if you shoot laser beams in water, they will malfunction". HE'S 6!!!!

This from the kid who also wants me to get the "green bags" on TV to cut down on the ephamine gas....he's close.
