Gradients are the best! They bring unlikely colors together without too much work. Granted, these are not the most arthritis friendly techniques but they look so freaking cool!

Apparently, I have a knack for creating neons because once again the tips ended up flourescent. I wish I could blame it on my camera but the neon just burst forth in person as well.

I hope you like today’s look as much as I do! Don’t forget to check out the Inlinkz below and use the social media hashtag #31DC2017 if you participate!

I always struggle with today’s 31 Day Nail Art challenge prompt. I don’t know why exactly except that I do not like the typical rainbow scheme. The colors just don’t match up in my eyes. I finally bit the bullet last year and used all six rainbow colors in a splatter look. I really disliked it but it ended up being my most liked photo that month! That was really weird for me because I still look and detest it!

This year, I decided to try again but by sponging. It sort of looks muddy but kind of works. I stamped some fireworks using Born Pretty Store‘s Celebration stamping plate.

Colors make me happy, especially neon colors, and with a disabling autoimmune condition I need as much “happy” as I can get.

31 Day Nail Art Challenge (September 2017 – #31DC2017) Day 8: Metallic Stamped Nail Art

Every year I participate in the 31 Day Nail Art Challenge I use the same gold-olive base for the metallic prompt! I never plan but I seem drawn to that color. This year, I finally veer away from gold and go silver! I know, weird.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy this look…I use a new time/clock stamping plate from Born Pretty Store. It’s pretty cool and I know I will reach for it often.

Sometimes I wish time would stand still while I wrestle with my RA. But, it doesn’t. Another week, month, even year passes and I am still no closer to getting my DVM. Rheumatoid Arthritis. You annoy me! But, hopefully, one day time runs out and I’m there, getting my degree and living the life I always wanted.
