NPQ Challenge - Untried - Showcase
You know that expression: Don't bite off more than you can chew? Well in the world of polish addicts like us in NPQ we don't really follow that rule, we buy and buy, sometimes leaving dozens of untried polishes on our shelves... well last week, our challenge gave us the opportunity to use those puppies.
Once again selecting only a few designs was hard, talent ladies, talent everywhere!!
This week challenge is 'One Stroke' so if you want to participate come join us!
Once again selecting only a few designs was hard, talent ladies, talent everywhere!!
Let's start of with +Elie Corzo and her breathtaking shattered glass design.
+Heather Barone did a great abstract designs, allowing her to use several untried polishes.

NPQ Showcase - Elie Corzo
The first winner of 2014 of our NPQuiz is the talented +Elie Corzo and she chose to share this gorgeous manicure which is one of her all time favorite:
"I love this manicure because those colors just pop against each other, this was my first successful stamping using a vivid silver and gold (thank you ladies of NPQ who gave such wonderful suggestions), cleanup was minimal, and I thought it was so cute but simple. I really had fun doing this one!
Polishes used: "Fig" by Sinful colors as the base, topped with "Glitter Bit of Music" by OPI, "Silver Sweep" by Sally Hansen Insta-Dry, & "Bold Gold 45" by Maybelline. Of course it's topped with Seche Vite top coat ;)"
