Coraline & Cotton Candy - What Could Be Better???

Good morning, Dear Reader!

I had the happiest mail day yesterday!  

First off, as I'm sure you figured out from the title, my Coraline Kit I showed up!  Whoo hoo!  If you don't know what I'm talking about, here it is - I preordered from wowsocool, my Konad place.   In it is a two-sided stamper, which I'm actually interested in trying; minis of Yellow, Psyche Pink, and Blue Pearl (the one I used today), all of which are colors I do not have and are seriously hot; a metal stamper, which I never mastered (I use the plastic one); and TWO OF THE COOLEST PLATES EVER!!!  I ended up just picking two patterns that would fit on my nails - I was overwhelmed with the possibilities!  If you click the link to wowsocool and then click on the images of the plates (CO1 and CO5, and incidentally, "O" is the letter, not the number) you'll see what I mean - it shows you the detail of them.  There are a bunch of images that will work across tips and a ton that will work on the nail bed, so my mind was just running.

So that was the Konad part.  The polish part - Barielles!  My Barielle Shades order showed up!  I got the new summer colors based on Scrangie's pics, which are spot-on.  They're online now, although I'd wager they'll show up in CVSs like the Winter colors did.  I really wanted to use the Blue Pearl Konad polish, so I picked one of the Summer Shades that I thought it would look good on, and selected Cotton Candy.  It's a really good mid-tone pink with a subtle-but-not-secret shimmer.  Very girly, and just perfect for my first Coraline mani!  Here she is.

 

 

That's the tale of yesterday's mail and today's Konadicure, Dear Reader!  I'm just as pleased as I can be with it!
