Wedding Part Deux

Hi everyone! I am sorry I haven't posted in a while. I went to Reno to renew my wedding vows over the New Years holiday, and then I had some vacation time at home. I also got sick, (I hate the canned air on airplanes!!!) so I have been resting up. Here are the nails I did for my renewal in Reno.

There's the Chapel of the Bells sign on my thumb, gold hearts on my index finger, a purple heart with 'Me + You' inside, Elvis on my ring finger, and a blinged out heart on my pinkie. 

I started with this lovely OPI shade called... Chapel of Love! Ha! See, the Chapel of the Bells is where we originally got hitched and where we went back to renew, so I had to do it. I like this color!

I made a purple heart using a stamping plate I got from Rebecca of Rebecca Likes Nails. It is soooo cute and I really adore it. You should see what Leslie did with this stamp, so awesome. I also used acrylic paints to make the Chapel of the Bells sign. 

I tried to paint Elvis Presley on my ring finger, since we all wore Elvis glasses at my first wedding. This did not turn out as well as I had hoped, but some people did recognize it as Elvis, so that's cool. 

Here's Elvis nearly finished. I think he ended up looking more like Tom Sizemore than Elvis Presely. What do you think?


On my right hand I painted Elvis glasses on my thumb and a feather boa (yes, that is supposed to be a feather boa) twisting along my other nails. It would have looked better with a different background. We all wore feather boas at my first wedding. 

Here's my Chapel of the Bells Nail with the sign in the background! The ladies who work there really liked it and didn't believe that I had hand painted it. 

Here's some of us crazy peeps on New Years Eve after my first wedding. (My friend Bogie, my hubby, me, my brother, and his wife.)

This is me and my sweetie after our wedding this past New Years Eve. I think my hubs is either doing a gang sign or indicating Wedding Part Deux! Whatevs, we had fun! 

I will soon post the nails that I did for the wedding party (including my bother's nails!). Have a great weekend!
