Hello Kitty almost lost-

OMG people!  This is the post that almost wasn't!  I was uploading the pictures from my camera onto my laptop and my usual course of action is to immediately delete the pictures off my camera while my computer is thinking. I have a very old piece of crap hand me down laptop.  Well stupid me was rushing and accidentally deleted all the pictures for this post!  Oh the swear words that sprung from my mouth!  Mom would not have been proud of me at that moment!  I looked for an undo button and there was none.  What do I do now?

I sat, defeated at my computer, staring at the screen saying 'there are no pictures in this folder' trying to figure out what to do next.  My thoughts ran the gamut from take the pictures over but have no progression pics as I always do to screw it I just won't do this post.  Now I am no computer genius, but I do know a few things from being married twice to computer geeks.  I searched my computer hoping there was a back up somewhere.  Nope.

Suddenly a light bulb went on above my head!  My recycle bin-maybe they are there! With renewed hope, I opened my recycle bin and was rewarded with my deleted pictures.  I restored them and here we are with this post!

We start as always, with the silly bottle shot.


It's my first rose of the season from my beautiful climbing rose bush.  It grows the most perfect salmon orange flowers.  It's about 8 feet tall right now.  I just love it!  Then we have Elevation Polish Sample #142, Lynnderella Love, Lace and Lilacs and Elevation Polish Alphubel.

I started with Alphubel with an accent of #142.  Alphubel is a gorgeous light blue shimmer polish so much prettier than Cinderella.  #142 is a one of a kind polish that didn't make the final cut.  Although it is the most stunningly perfect cornflower/periwinkle blue I have ever seen.  I own nothing like it.  My camera is not showing this color correctly.  Here are your shots.

Oh how I wish I could capture the true colors of these blues!  Next I did a layer of LLL which is a gorgeous white glitter fest with hidden shimmer.  Here is that step-precleanup.

For those of you who can't get this Lynn-this is very similar to Elevation Polish Froze to Death available on her webstore. The differences being the Lynn is more densely packed and the FTD has holo glitters added.  I love them both!

Next I stamped with Fab Ur Nails Fun 2 and finished it off with my funky.  Here are the results.

I think this is the first time I have stamped on top of glitter.  The Alphubel was too light to stamp with so you can't see it on the ring finger.  I am so in love with this #142 sample!  I can't wait to show you more!

So note to self for future posts-slow down, don't rush and don't delete the camera pictures until you are done with the post!

Until next time people.  Any thoughts out there?
