31 Day Challenge: Day 21

Good morning everyone, and welcome to the final section of the 31 Day Challenge! If you want a refresher of what exactly this challenge is, head to my Day 1 post.

This final section of themes are all inspired by something or other. Today's theme is Inspired By A Color.

I wasn't quite sure how to go about this one, and then I chatted with a friend about it, who gave me the great idea to make it inspired by a polish color, and use the name to enhance the inspiration!
(That friend, is Sarah from Chalkboard Nails, and she is awesome! Seriously check out her blog. She has been doing this 31 Day Challenge right alongside me and she has blown me away every day!)

I looked at a few polishes, seeing which names could make a good design, and I settled on this one:


H&M - I Love Candy. Yep, another Hello Kitty polish from the lovely Line in Denmark.


This is a 2-coat shimmery purple polish, awesome formula, awesome color!


It's full of pink shimmer. Very nice! The quality of H&M's polishes is shockingly good.

Now, to bring in the inspiration from the name! Candy!


Cute little candies!


Awkward hand position to try and catch the last bits of sun coming in my windows!


I used a very small brush to draw on these candies using polishes from the China Glaze Kicks Collection:
China Glaze - It's Poppin' (pink)
China Glaze - Entourage (green)
China Glaze - Sky High Top (blue)


What would this design have been without some Hello Kitty decals? Haha! Too cute.
These stickers are from Born Pretty.


Thanks, Sarah, for helping me find the right inspiration for this!
