Hello everyone! Today's guest post is brought to you by Sarah of Penny Pinching Polish. Sarah is a super talented nail artist and a girl after my own heart! Skulls, studs, tattoo nails, a love of bright neons and great taste in music - what's not to love? ;) She even gets creative with her beautiful swatches (see one of my favourites here) Enjoy! Sam xx
Hi everyone! I'm Sarah from Penny Pinching Polish, and I am super excited about appearing on FingerFood today. I really admire Sam's style, and her freehand mani's always leave me in awe, so when she asked if I could help her out while she's dealing with this crappy flooding, I practically jumped out of my chair!
At first, I had no idea what mani I wanted to do, so in the end, I just decided to combine some of my favourite things with a few of my favourite colours. Namely, Color Club - Raspberry Rush & Mrs Robinson, and Barry M Gelly - Blue Grape. The black stripe is Sinful Colors - Black on Black, and the stamping is from MoYou Biker 08, stamped with Barry M Silver Foil.
The spikes came from a little bundle I bought on ebay a few weeks ago, and this is the first time I have worn these on my nails. They're not exactly practical, but I really love the way they look. They have a flat base, and even though I only attached them with top coat, they stayed put for a good few hours. They would have stayed much longer with nail glue of course, but I did this mani in the evening, and wanted to be able to just pull them off before bed, so I didn't wake up with a bust lip!
So, that's all from me then. A massive thank you to Sam for letting me take the reigns for today, and I hope I didn't waffle on too much :) If any of you would like to check out my blog, you can do so by following
