Nail Accessories Haul

Dear Nail Diary,

Just received my goodies from America!  I'm still awaiting my Butter London haul, but I thought I'd show you what I have to keep me occupied until then.
Bundle Monster is my favourite place to get cheap nail art stuffs.  They sell other stuff too like beauty products and jewellery.  You can get them from Amazon too, but I have found it cheaper to buy directly from their website - even with customs charges!  They have a sale on currently for a Mystery Surprise Nail Art Kit - $4.99 instead of $15.99!  All kits are picked at random and this is what I received in mine...

'Merca Day Mani

Dear Nail Diary,

I don't often do flag inspired nails, mainly because my Mom has been asking me to do them for World Cup games and every time I have they've lost!  I didn't see the harm in doing this homage to Independence Day.


I didn't want to do a traditional Stars 'n' Stripes - mainly because I'm lazy!  So decided stretch it out across my whole hand. On my thumb and index I painted two coats of Barry M - Indigo and then sealed it with a coat of Seche Vite.  Once dry, I stamped Barry M - White with Pueen Plate 44 and there are my stars.
For the rest of my nails I painted two coats of Barry M - White, sealed with SV and stamped the curiously named China Glaze - Aztec Orange with Pueen Plate 32 turned on its side to create the stripes.
I finished with a final coat of SV.
