Alice In Wonderland Opens Today!!!!

Today's the day!!! Disney's Alice In Wonderland Opens today!!! In honor of the big day... check out my sparklies!!! The color of glitter polish that's featured here is called Absolutely Alice. It's one of the new polishes from OPI's Alice In Wonderland collection and is also one of the gorgeous polishes that I am giving away this month. All you have to do is become a follower of this blog (if you're not already) and go to this link and leave a comment on that contest announcement post. Super easy. The contest is open to all US residents however, along with the AWESOME Alice In Wonderland polishes is a free Manicure from Zolton's in Chandler, AZ. So that part of the prize might be a "little" harder to use living outside of Arizona. But hey, free polish is free polish and these polishes are AMAZING.

A couple of notes I want to make about this polish here, it is ABSOLUTELY gorgeous in real life, however, I could not seem to get a pic that did this polish justice. But All Lacquered Up gave a wonderful review of ALL the Alice In Wonderland polishes full-on with GREAT swatches, making note of the Absolutely Alice: "mingling amongst the eye catching royal blue glitter are pops of gold, the color of Alice’s blonde locks." Honestly, I couldn't put it better myself. So to better show the blue/gold effect with MY pitiful camera, I used the Absolutely Alice OVER OPI's Yoga-ta Get This Blue. It seems that the darker background made the gold glitter pop with the blue glitter. In real life, NO background is needed to make this color look amazing and I found that two coats covered PERFECTLY! This really is a great color and can't wait to get it on my toe nails. OH! And also remember that MOST glitter polishes need a clear top coat to avoid chipping.

I hope you all get a chance to enter to win the polishes (Arizona residents, don't forget about the manicure); the winner will be announced here on March 27th. I also hope to see you all at the movies!!! Trust me, I WON'T be there tonight! Can you say MAD HOUSE???!!!!??? Yah, Mad As A Hatter!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

It's A Great Day For A White Wedding

It has been sooooo long since I've designed with the wonderful ladies of Paper Vineyard's design team!  Getting back on the designing wagon has suddenly come so easy to me over the past couple of days or so... I've been designing up a storm.  Part of the reason for the sudden burst of creativity came from this little gem pictured below!  Just a little warning here... this post is VERY pic heavy!!!  Yep!  It's the DCWV Immortal Love stack I told you all about the other day (inspired by the Twilight Saga movies).  So with Breaking Dawn coming out later this year, the Wedding theme for today's challenge over at Paper Vineyard was SUPER easy.  I can clearly imagine what wedding goodies Edward and Bella would put together, what their wedding colors would be, etc.  Well, now you can see how this one just sort of made itself!  hahahahahahha! So my creation is the CD jacket for a wedding photo compilation; the template is...
