BeachScene.A.S.nails

Almost the weekend Yey!

So last week I did some holiday nails and to carry on from them I have more holiday inspired nails - a beach scene across them.
Now there is quite a bit going on but then beaches are busy places and there's always something to see on a busy beach - sometimes things you don't want to see! Haha

From thumb to pinky I've drawn:
A lady sunbathing. A sun umbrella and boat in the distance. A boat and 2 boys playing volley ball. A lady flying a kite and finally, a swimmer.

I used Barry M for every colour on this design except for the black and white, they are Rio nail art pens.

Have a lovely week!!
I'm on the way to the airport as I write but Sophie will still be posting some of her great nails so keep on viewing :)

We are also entering a competition with Travel Supermarket. Here is the link if you want to enter too! http://www.travelsupermarket.com/c/holidays/beauty-and-the-beach/ 

Seaside.A.S.nails

'Oh I do like to be beside the seaside!'

Well...in the sun I do anyway. I bet it's a bit soggy at the beaches in England today.
Oh well, we can still wish!

I find pale blue nail varnish is becoming very useful to Sophie and I for most of our nail art designs!
For todays cute nails I used Chanel - Riva blue for the sky, Barry M - Lemon and Models Own - Yellow for the sand and Rio nail art pens for the detail.

Aah how nice it would be to be lounging on a striped deck chair right now. Sand in between your toes. Maybe an ice-cream in hand!
Ok, perhaps we're getting a bit obsessed with our lack of summer now...haha!

Hope you enjoy these and have a great day!!

Beach huts.A.S.nails

My greatest childhood holiday memory has always been when my family and family friends (there were 10 of us altogether, 4 adults and 6 children) all stayed in a very very small beach hut for the whole summer! Being England it obviously rained a lot but we always managed to have fun by making rivers in the sand for the water to flow down and painting stones (this could be when I found my slight artistic flare) which we then tried selling to all the visitors.

Anyway, here are some beach hut nails in memory of my fantastic childhood holiday! For the sky I used Barry M blueberry (I seem to like this colour) and all the detailing with Models Own and Tantrum nail art pens. I also topped off the yellow tips with Rimmel Pro Matte Finish to make them stand out a bit.

On my other hand I painted them all blueberry with yellow tips apart from my ring finger which i added some white stripes instead of tips. You can do anything on this hand however i don't have a very steady left hand so it would look quite dreadful if i tried to do a lot of detail!

What is your favourite childhood memory? Maybe you could paint your nails to fit it like me! Please send any nail art to cute.as.nails1@gmail.com for your chance to be nails of the week!!!

Boats.A.S.nails

Usually summer means sailing. For me anyway. Most of my family sail whatever the weather! Crazy!
So with that in mind here are some sailing nails with birds and a little beach!
A different take on nautical nails i think!

Have fun in the sun!
