Failed challenges

So much for participating in a 30 days nail challenge, eh?

I should know better that I couldn't do this challenge as I do not have the privilege to do my nails on daily basis.

I've done about a quarter of the challenges and gotta show 'em here anyway.

DAY 1 : RED

Trying first hand on the water color technique.

30daychallenge (2)
I got annoyed with the whites peeking out along the cuticle lines so I painted blue frame on them.

DAY 6 : VIOLET

This is more lilac than violet but I do not have much of violet in my collections.

DAY 7 : BLACK AND WHITE

Initially, I wanted to do a design in conjunction with Breast Cancer Awareness month. However, I couldn't find the right pink to match with the China Glaze Elephant Walk grey.

And those are all the challenges I managed to do before I decided to quit. Ha!
I know challenges should be a fun thing to do. But given my situation, it wasn't anywhere fun when I really have to squeeze my brain while I have tons of work to complete. Besides, I had a hard time wiping off those one-day nail art especially when I find them pretty to be wiped off so soon.

So yeah, this 30 days nail challenge is not meant for me. At least, not now.
