Wait…did I just seriously ask “Are you ready for some football?” Clearly I’m delusional and what I meant to say “Are you ready for some football nailart” Phew that’s much better!
This time of year I become a football widow. I’ve tried over the years to learn more about the sport and get into all the drama, suspense and thrill of the game. But alas, my only love for football will be with me painting a football on my nail! LOL
So these two pictures basically sum up my life right now. Instead of just sitting back and bellyaching about I’ve decided to embrace being a football widow until next year…LOL! I bought a few new polishes and couldn’t think of what would be great to do with a green. Then I stumbled across a brown polish in my out of control vast array of polishes and thought grass and a football would be perfect!
Now as I’ve stated before I am by no means an artist (ie I can’t draw worth ****). So when I have something in my mind it always looks so much prettier than what the end result is. So envision a football field and you’re on the 50 yard line and the sun is reflecting off the grass giving it a bit of a sparkly shimmer and you go in the for the kick…touchdown! Pretend that’s what you’re looking at when you see today’s MANICure Monday nail art…LOL!
Oh yea and you kicked the ball so hard that a piece of the pigskin came off…LMAO! Seriously for my lack of artistic ability I’m thinking it resembles what I was going for and if you can’t see it just squint your eyes and tilt your head to the left and viola!
So how are you rocking your nails this week? I would love to see so please share any links that you have below and thanks again for checking out today’s MANICure Monday mani!
Haha! Your intro had me giggling. Love this mani! I think that you’re underselling your artistic capabilities. 😉
Thank you! By the end of football season I’m hoping to at least attempt our mascot pic for the Tennessee Titans. I at least have about 6 months to work on making it look better…LOL!
Love the mani!! Looks really good! I found your link at glitter & gloss!!
Thanks so much Alicia! 😀
LMAO 😀
It took less imagination than you suggested…I think it’s a great mani and I really got the vibe you meant for it ;-D
Well done!
Margriet You know I just sent you a big ol’ cyber hug! Always so supportive even when it looks like my 5year old did my nail art…LOL!
Girlfriend, you are so talented. My hubby would love it if I wore my nails like this!
Thanks so much Stacie! I’ve been slacking and had to cut my nails down to nubs and baby them up again. I’ve got a ton of fun holiday ideas so stay tuned for some more random looking nails…LOL!
lol. I had a crash course in football about ten years ago (I’m SO OLD) when I was a freshman at the Univ. of Michigan 😛 they are BIG on football there. I enjoy watching the UM games still with my dad, but I don’t follow NFL at all. Cute nails!
I try each year to get into it…but alas it never works! LOL
I love it! That’s super cute! You did a great job. I need to branch out and be more creative.
You are already creative! <3
