Halloween Nail Art Challenge - Halloween Character

Hi my friends!

We're almost finished with this challenge, and it's only a few days till Halloween . Let me introduce you kind a cute and confused Frankie, I bet you'd feel the same in his shoes, just look at him, he's all in stitches, that probably hurts, poor baby!
Već smo pri kraju i ovog izazova, svega je par dana do Halloweena . Dozvolite da vam predstavim svog zbunjenog Frankieja, kladim se da bi i vi osjećali isto na njegovom mjestu, ma samo ga pogledajte, sav u šavovima, to sigurno booooli, jadničak!

He's a bit green... maybe because I painted his face with Essence's 'lime up!' .  

Do you like my Frankie? 

Malo je zelen... bit će zato jer sam mu lice nacrtala s Essenceovim 'lime up!' .

Sviđa vam se ovakav Frankie?

Till we meet again, take care of yourself, Žana

4 Elements Nail Challenge - Earth

Hi my friends!

The second manicure in one day... I'm busy little bee . This one is for the last day of '4 Elements Nail Challenge' with 'earth' theme. In Croatian the 'earth' means not just our planet, but the soil too. So I couldn't make up my mind what to do, where to go... Considering Taya's picture for this challenge, I think she had the planet on her minds. So, the planet it will be .
Druga manikura danas... uh, koja sam ja vridnica . Ova je za posljednji dan '4 Elements Nail Challenge' s temom 'zemlja'. Vi znate da riječ zemlja ne znači nužno i planet, već i tlo, pa sam se bacila na razmišljanje što i kako napraviti... na kraju, imajući u vidu Tayinu fotku, sve je ukazivalo na to da je ona mislila na Zemlju. Pa, neka bude Zemlja .

On middle finger is planet Earth, floating in the space. If  it wasn't for those clouds you could see Mediterian Sea with European and African coast. On ring finger you can see Italian boot with white Alps, on the rest of the nails random coast... cloudy . Not bad, but it looked better in my head. And these were my little helpers... I can't believe myself, this Essence beauty - 'midnight date' waited for months to be worn, shame!
Na srednjem prstu bi trebala biti Zemlja, pluta u svemiru. Da nije tako oblačno mogli biste vidjeti Mediteransko more s Afričkom i Europskom obalom. Na prstenjaku se vidi talijanska čizma s bijelim Alpama, na ostatku noktiju nasumične obale... oblačno . Nije loše, ali je u glavi izgledalo bolje. A evo i mojih pomagača... Ne vjerujem sama sebi, Essenceov 'midnight date' je mjesecima čekao na prvo lakiranje, sramim se!

Let me remind you once more for the rest of the manicures in this challenge.
Dajte da vas još jednom podsjetim na ostale manikure iz ovog izazova. 

fire / vatra

water / voda

air / zrak

Now of you go, you must see what the other girls have done. 

Idite sad, morate pogledati i što su druge cure napravile.

Till we meet again, take care of yourself, Žana 

Halloween Nail Art Challenge - Mummy

Hi my friends!

What's new? Nothing really, once again I'm one day late. Really, I should put my real life on hold, it interferes in my blogging schedule too often . Ok, now I'm on the mission, today's theme is 'mummy' and I love mummies! Or not... if they smell to hard they better stay away from me!
Šta ima novog? Zapravo ništa, opet kasnim čitav dan. Stvarno, morat ću nekako odgodit svoj 'pravi' život jer mi se prečesto miješa u raspored bloganja . Ali sad sam na misiji, današnja tema je 'mumija' a ja baš volim mumije! Ili ne... ako ne mirišu dobro bolje da stoje što dalje od mene!

These were my little helpers in today's task: 

Evo i mojih malih pomagača u današnjem zadatku:

I did something similar last year and I haven't change almost anything, I think these mummies are pretty good job. But I have one assignment for you, my dears. You need to find the intruder among these mummies, one of them is pretty messed up and confused. Once you find that guy, the curse of mummies will skip you and you'll be safe . Good luck!
Nešto slično sam napravila i prošle godine i ni ovaj put skoro ništa nisam promijenila. Mislim da su ove mumije prilično dobre pa ni nema potrebe za promjenom. Ali, imam i za vas jedan zadačić. Trebate među ovim likovima naći uljeza, jedna je mumija prilično zbunjena i zbrljana. Kad ju pronađete, prokletstvo mumije će vas preskočiti i bit ćete sigurni . Sretno!

Till we meet again, love yourself and respect everyone else, Žana

New pet

Hi my friends!

To make up for yesterday's horrifying manicure, I decided to give you something sweet and simple today.  This is 'the' polish, the very first one after almost 3 months of abstinence... when I saw it on the shelf, I could  hear it calling my name, so I decided to give it a warm home . This is Gabrini 387!
Da se iskupim za jučerašnju, u svakom pogledu prestrašnu manikuru, odlučila sam i sebe i vas počastiti nečim slatkim i jednostavnim danas. Ovo je 'the' lak, prvi nakon skoro puna 3 mjeseca apstinencije od shoppinga... kad sam ga vidjela na polici, mogla sam ga čuti kako doziva moje ime, pa sam ga odlučila udomiti . Ovo je Gabrini 387!

You gotta love this color! It's deep mint, a little sheer so I applied three coats, with topcoat, I didn't want to take any chance for an accident while drying. Unfortunately, one of my nails crashed with a drawer, and drawer won that battle, so I'm back on short nails again . The good news is - they'll grow up, eventually, I hope . 

Like my new polish?

Ma morate voljeti ovu boju! Radi se o zagasitijoj menta nijansi, malo je proziran pa sam stavila 3 sloja i nadlak, nisam htjela riskirati nikakve nezgode zbog sušenja. Na nesreću, jedan od mojih noktića se sudario s ladicom, ladica je pobijedila pa sam opet na kratkim noktima . Dobra vijest je - narasti će opet, valjda, nadam se . 

Sviđa vam se moj novi lakić?

Till we meet again, keep those nails polished, Žana        

Halloween Nail Art Challenge - Ghost

Hi my friends!

Are you afraid of ghosts? Have you ever met any of them? I haven't... I'm not sure that I would, even if I could . How ever, I bring you those terrible creatures from the other side... be afraid, be very afraid...
Bojite li se duhova? Jeste li ikad upoznali kojeg od njih? Ja još nisam... čak nisam sigurna ni da bih, čak i kad bih mogla . Nego, evo nam tih stvorenja s druge strane.... bojte se, jaaaaaako se bojte...

And most frightening of them all, the leader of this naughty bunch: (the only one presentable)

I najstrašniji od njih, vođa ove nestašne ekipice: (jedini koji i liči na nešto)

I bet you almost screamed when you saw these pictures... but don't be, they're not real, I just draw them .  As background I used 'hunt me if you can' (such an appropriate name) from Essence's 'Vampire's love' collection. The ghosts are made with acrylic paints. Please join me while I'm checking what the other girls from this challenge have done.

Kladim se da su vas ove fotke skoro natjerale da vrisnete... ali ne bojte se, nisu stvarni, upravo sam ih nacrtala . Za pozadinu sam iskoristila 'hunt me if you can' (sasvim prikladno ime) iz Essenceov 'Vampirska ljubav' kolekcije. Duhovi su napravljeni akrilim bojicama. Molim vas pridužite mi se dok provjeravam što su druge cure koje sudjeluju u izazovu napravile. 

Till we meet again, keep those nails polished, Žana
