Dotty for Holos

Yup, you guessed right.  More holo happiness for today's post.  I hope you aren't getting too tired of the rainbows, I know I'm not!

Woke up this morning to my screen door COVERED in these cicada bugs.  I almost screamed.  They were making this godawful noise replying to the cicadas in the trees.  It was the sickest sound I think I've ever heard.  I flicked them off my screen to their protests and now they are all over my house and deck.  I wanted to go out the back to feed the birds but no way was I going to open the screen door.  No telling if they would fall on my head.  I think I would freakin pass out if that happened.  Instead, I went out the front door, to my despair, they were all over my front porch as well.  I even stepped on one by accident.  Out came this sickening crunch.  It's the stuff of nightmares I tell you.  Maybe I should freak all of you out and post pictures.  I just don't think you guys are feeling my horror.  As I stepped down my porch stairs, I saw they were all in the grass as well.  I didn't do myself any favors by going out the front door either!!

Just for you, my fans, I braved the bugs, entered their territory, which is now my house, and took pictures.  Warning, these are freakin scary big bugs.  At least 2-3inches IRL.  Close your eyes if you can't take it and skip on ahead.

You still with me?  How many of you fainted????  What gets me is the red eyes.  I just can't take it and I wish I could replicate the sound for you.  It's in the background always there morning, noon and night.  Now do you feel my horror? They say this will continue until mid July.  I surely hope they leave much sooner than that!!!

I even recorded their sound as a voice memo but can't figure out how to add it to this post.  Anyone know how?

Now that we all have calmed down and made it past the cicadas.  Let's see some pretty holo rainbows shall we?  Here's your silly bottle shot.


This is Glitter Gal Marine Blue and OPI Can't Find My Czechbook.

I'd forgotten how tiny these Glitter Gal holo bottles are!  I started with Blue and an accent of Czechbook.  I'd also forgotten how crazy strong the holo is in these Glitter Gals!  Be ready for some serious rainbows.  Guess I kind of owe you after the nightmare from before!

Crazy strong holo!  Even indoors it glows!  Swoon people!  Next I dotted with the opposite color just for something different.  Here is that step.

Kind of different eh?  Anywho, I finished this with my funky of course!  Here are the results.

I do love a gorgeous blue holo!  I have a ton of new holos coming.  As long as the sun stays out, I'm staying in rainbow land!!

I hope I didn't lose any of my readers showing you the horror of my reality and the bugs.  Do you have nasty bugs at your house?  Do you forgive me?  Please don't tell me you think they are cool.  I think I'd die!

Until next time people.  Any thoughts out there?
