CandyLand Nails-Homework assignment....failed :(

For the second week now Nicole at Nearly Nailed and I have decided to do a Sunday night homework challenge.  Before I go any further on this weeks challenge I just want to suggest that you all go check out her blog.  It's a great blog to follow and shes a really funny sweet girl.  She's been helping me out with Twitter but I'm still iffy about it. (she seems to be a pro) Blogger is still giving me enough challenges to handle

Anywhooo..... last week we both attempted our first jelly sandwich manicure.  This week Nicole decided what the homework assignment would be. She decided on a manicure inspired by our favourite board game.  That was hard for me because I hate board games. I just can't stand sitting and playing something that I know I have to finish. lol I thought back to the one game I use to love when I was little....Candy Land! I never owned it myself but my friend did and we always use to play.  Of course I grew up with the 80's Candy land.  Alot has changed since then.
 I decided to assign each nail to a different location on the game board. I had an idea in my mind before attempting this and it looked AMAZING!....then I attempted it :o(
I did not keep track of the nail polish I used as I was all over the place.  Take a look below to see what locations inspired what nails!



Although you can't see very well in the photo I had purple glitter on the plums.  It was VERY sparkly :)



Peppermint Forest was probably the easiest

I had added glitter to the microbeads to give it that extra sugar look. Unfortunately you can't see it.....again :(



I was not happy with this one at all.  I was going to try something else but was on a time limit.  (I'm still packing for the move)


For Molasses Swamp I actually had to mix polishes together to get brown. I need to get a brown polish.  I used a Konad stamp to get the swirly effect



So all in all I'm not going to lie.  I was not happy with this at all. The only reason I'm posting this one is for Nicole.  :oP  Next week is my choice of homework assignment. hmmmmmm ;)
