<br />
I hope you all haven't been too worried or disspointed in me. I feel like I must explain what has been going on.<br />
<br />
If you follow my Facebook page, you may have seen a explanation post awhile back. Basically I have been struggling with a number of things lately that has been keeping me from blogging and posting. My husband and I have been struggling with finances and trying to make ends meet. It is so very frustrating and crushing to know that you may not be able to pay the electric bill one month.<br />
<br />
I have also mentio0ned on my page, and I am not ashamed of it in the least, I have struggled with depression and bipolar for about 12 years now, and the season really takes a toll on me. I have been working with my doctor to find a balance and get myself back in a good place, but at the moment is a real struggle to get through the day. And posting on the blog seems more and more like an assignment or a chore instead of something I used to enjoy.<br />
<br />
I still paint my nails regularly, though usually do not go all out with the art portion of it. I still love the world of polish and I still constantly peruse Facebook to see the latest that you all have to offer. You all do such beautiful work and I love looking at it. I even still purchase the occassional bottle and you may still see me stalking your pages and liking or commenting on your posts.<br />
<br />
But for the time being, I need to take a break. I am not sure how long this break may be. Maybe a few weeks, maybe forever. I need to focus on me and my health as well as our financial situation and school right now. I know you all will understand. You have been such wonderful followers and you have made it so much fun. I hope you don't go anywhere, just in case I come back.<br />
<br />
Much love,<br />
<br />

<br />
So I am 2 days late on this one. I am soooo sorry!! I promise, in 2 weeks, when this semester is over and life calms down, I will be back on track...Thank you so much for being patient with me.<br />
<br />
Anyway, the challenge for Friday was Snowman. Here is mine:<br />

<br />
Look at my poor little nubbin of a ring finger nail. It got destroyed and I had to trim them all down to compensate :( <br />
<br />
I used China Glaze Water You Waiting For from their Cirque du Solei collection for the base. GORGEOUS!!! Then I sponged and dotted on Snow Me White for the snow. And also used it for the snowman. <br />

<br />
I am a day late on my day 4 nails. I was busy all day yesterday *trying* to do homework, but ultimately failing. Now I get to do exactly the same thing today.<br />
<br />
Anyway, day 4 is Christmas Lights. I had some ideas in my head, a Pin I found and pinned on Pinterest almost a year ago, but that didn't pan out. This is what I came up with.<br />

<br />
O my goodness I am blown away with the polish I am wearing right now. It is China Glaze Champagne Kisses and I think it is part of their holiday line. It is a gorgeous gold-bronze glitter-bomb with scattered holo glitters.<br />
<br />
Take a look and prepare to have your breath taken away.<br />

Hello lovelies!<br />
<br />
Today is day 3 of the Christmas challenge.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Christmas movie...I struggled with this one for so long and I nearly just gave up and thought I was going to skip it.<br />
<br />
Then Elf came on TV and I saw his hilarious green and yellow outfit he wears and I had my inspiration!<br />
<br />

<br />
So incredibly simple, but I am just happy I was able to do this one. I used Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow and Ulta Limelight.<br />

Here are the other bloggers also doing the challenge.<br />

I hope you checked out my <a href="http://justanotherpolishaddiction.blogspot.com/2012/11/350-likeschristmas-giveaway.html" target="_blank">giveaway</a> going on in the previous post.<br />
<br />
It is day 2 of the 12 Days of Christmas challenge. Snowflakes!<br />
<br />
I am so thrilled with this mani! I think it is my favorite one I have ever done. It turned out so wonderfully that people have asked if it was the stickers. (please dont think I am bragging. I am just really proud).<br />

I used Orly Snowcone for the base and then Sinful Colors Snow Me White and a nameless stamping plate to stamp on the snowflakes.<br />

I normally never ever show off my thumb but I am just so pleased :) Even my right hand turned out beautifully. <br />

So it is almost December, but not quite. It definately seems like it here in Minnesota though. I think it was 19 degrees yesterday. Brrrr.....<br />
<br />
I am starting a new challenge for December which I am really excited about. I like doing month long challenges because it keeps me on track for doing my nails and posting on the blog. But it also takes the guesswork out of what I should do on my nails (mostly).<br />
<br />
This challenge was created by Nicole over at <a href="http://nicolesmonthlybeauty.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Dipped in Lacquer</a> and started today.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uFZB2s7Kbk4/ULa5yU0Og4I/AAAAAAAACD4/MN862WE2OG4/s1600/481770_249934091800287_1731040578_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uFZB2s7Kbk4/ULa5yU0Og4I/AAAAAAAACD4/MN862WE2OG4/s640/481770_249934091800287_1731040578_n.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
So today, being day 1, is only red and green, I instantly thought Gradient!<br />
<br />

I used Zoya Logan and Butter London Chancer to create this sparkly look.<br />

<br />
I just love it! I think it is my favorite gradient I have ever done. I don't know how I will bring myself to take it off for Friday. Lol.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Hello loves!<br />
<br />
I am trying to get through my unswatched Indies and some unswatched mainstream polishes before I buy any more. So this is one I have been holding onto for awhile, just looking at it and wanting it on my fingers.<br />
<br />
It is Pretty and Polished Daddy's Girl. A beautiful light blue jelly creme base with different sized pink glitters and pink hearts.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DCrh4DqRmdE/ULVM-FbeYyI/AAAAAAAACB0/g6iGUPxkABU/s1600/41.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DCrh4DqRmdE/ULVM-FbeYyI/AAAAAAAACB0/g6iGUPxkABU/s640/41.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
This is two coats of Daddy's Girl over one coat Orly Snowcone.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5DuDn0hH0_o/ULVM_koN5OI/AAAAAAAACB8/KauFINmDfuE/s1600/42.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5DuDn0hH0_o/ULVM_koN5OI/AAAAAAAACB8/KauFINmDfuE/s640/42.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I didn't have to do any fishing except for the heart glitter, which I was only able to get one. But it is so pretty. I will be wearing this one again for sure!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I also tried the glue base coat and I must say, it worked amazing! The only problem I had is, working in clothing, it began chipping and peeling right away at the beginning of my shift. Ugh!! Have you tried this? How did it work for you?<br />

It is Thanksgiving day and I will be doing my turkey nails after this.<br />
<br />
I have some polishes from Model City that she sent me from her Holiday collection. I am really excited about these cuz they are just beautiful in the bottle and even prettier on the nail. Let's start, shall we?<br />
<br />
First we have Jolly Happy Soul. This is a glitter topper in a clear base with red and white hex glitters, black square glitters and black rod glitters. It also has these gorgeous clear iridescent glitters in there as well. In the bottle they looked purpleish, and on the nail they shifted from a yellow to a blue to a purple. Stunning! The unfortunate part is that after about 30 pictures, I simply could not capture the iridescent colors and they all look yellowish. I layered it over Sinful Colors Snow Me White<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7XSsX6nFobE/UK5p7rD35dI/AAAAAAAACAM/oarqYQh9cWM/s1600/38.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7XSsX6nFobE/UK5p7rD35dI/AAAAAAAACAM/oarqYQh9cWM/s640/38.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Next we have Meet Me Under The Mistletoe. A classic Christmas glitter mix, I loved this one. It has small red glitters and mini green and white glitters in a clear base. I layered it over China Glaze Liquid Leather to help make to colors pop.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_vjBaQoBQWs/UK5p6c5CwcI/AAAAAAAACAE/AelXY4jf3ro/s1600/37.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_vjBaQoBQWs/UK5p6c5CwcI/AAAAAAAACAE/AelXY4jf3ro/s640/37.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
And lastly, we have Sugar Plum, a bonus holo. This one is my favorite of the three. It is a gorgeous shade of magenta/fuschia with a linear holo effect. It went on beautifully in only 2 coats.<br />
<br />

You may have seen some other bloggers posting reviews and mini giveaways of the nail art stickers from <a href="http://www.jobynailart.com/" target="_blank">Joby</a>. Well, here's mine :)<br />
<br />
I was sent the splattered paint set for my review (Sorry I didn't photograph them before I started using them).<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hHERHNzLdO0/UKWcP7JMbbI/AAAAAAAAB-o/2UprrX9kScc/s1600/1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hHERHNzLdO0/UKWcP7JMbbI/AAAAAAAAB-o/2UprrX9kScc/s640/1.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
I apologize for the wierd lighting on the photos. My camera has been less than cooperative lately.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WfSN817yFQE/UKWcRI71kkI/AAAAAAAAB-w/5CeKCOO48Fo/s1600/2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WfSN817yFQE/UKWcRI71kkI/AAAAAAAAB-w/5CeKCOO48Fo/s640/2.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I really didn't have much luck with these. It could be for a few reasons that I failed. I didn't really allow my base coat dry completely before putting them on (notice the smudged and dented ring finger). It could be that I chose the wrong base color. But I am sure it was my fault as I have seen a few other blogger's reviews and they have all been very successful and they turned out wonderfully.<br />
<br />
So anyway, on to the mini giveaway!!<br />
<br />
I have a Christmas set of nail stickers to give away to one lucky winner, as well as a coupon code to purchase some of your own.<br />
<br />

I am back with another post tonight. After this I am back on track and I can (hopefully) stay there :)<br />
<br />
I have for you tonight the gorgeous Scarab Beetle from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/rainbowpolish" target="_blank">Rainbow Polish</a>. Tonya makes some incredibly beautiful polishes that you can get on Etsy. You can see my swatches of Pheasant <a href="http://justanotherpolishaddiction.blogspot.com/2012/09/rainbow-polish-pheasant.html" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

<br />
I layered this over two coats of POP Mint Condition. I was incredibly unimpressed with the POP polish. It went on all streaky and wierd. I tried thin coats and thick coats and could not find a good way to put it on. I am really happy I had this beautiful polish to cover the flaws.<br />
<br />

<br />
Tonya describes her polish as "This polish contains blue and teal fine glitters, hex and square glitters of various colors all in a suspension base". I normally am not a fan of glitter toppers and usually go for those all-in-one polishes (colored base with the glitters mixed in), but I am in love with almost every single one of her polishes on her site.Scarab went on very well and with some minimal glitter placement I was able to achieve the perfect consistency of glitter to base. <br />

This is two generous coats.<br />

The polish itself went on very smoothly with practically no glitter "placement". I think this may be one of my favorites to date. If anyone knows me, or pays attention to my blog posts, they will know I LOVE pink and purple and the combination of the two.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I've been pretty behind on posting so I will have another one ready for you in a little while. I'm going to go work on it now. Love you!<br />

<br />
It is No H8 day out there and the color for this day is PURPLE! There is so much bullying going on out there and it's about time it stopped!<br />
<br />
Here is my purple no hate mani.<br />

I used Zoya Aurora, which is a <i>gorgeous</i> purple holo. It is so beautiful I couldn't stop looking at it.<br />
<br />

Just stunning.<br />
<br />
I then used some silver studs from the <a href="http://www.bornprettystore.com/silver-square-stud-rhinestone-acrylic-nail-p-2859.html" target="_blank">Born Pretty Store</a> to spice it up a bit. I really like these. They jazz up any mani and are really simple to apply with a tweezers. This is a great site also for all things nail related. They have great prices and always have free shipping. Be sure to use my code EEL91 to get 10% off your order. <br />

<br />
Have something special for you today. I have some W7 polishes come all the way from the UK just to be my pretties. A couple of months ago, I was checking out the W7 website and was super bummed to find out that they ship to practically everywhere in the world except the US. But with the help from Jen at <a href="http://www.facebook.com/JensNailFiles?fref=ts" target="_blank">Jen's Nail Files</a>, I was able to get my hands on my very own W7 polishes!<br />
<br />
And here they are!! All swatches are only 2 coats and topcoat.<br />
<br />
First we have Salt and Pepper. This is a white cream loaded with small matte black glitters. Absolutely gorgeous!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-duXz2vR1iMI/UJqd2LuIaUI/AAAAAAAABzw/r-HtTZWqT_w/s1600/001_demo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-duXz2vR1iMI/UJqd2LuIaUI/AAAAAAAABzw/r-HtTZWqT_w/s640/001_demo.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />

<br />
It really does look like salt and pepper.<br />
<br />
Next up we have Lava Flow. Also a white cream base with small matte black glitters but this one also has small shiny red glitters as well.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
So pretty!<br />
<br />
And last, but not least, (in fact I think this one is my favorite) we have Mosaic. This is a lovely turquoise-blue cream base with small shiny gold and blue glitters.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
It really looks like a gorgeous piece of mosaic art.<br />
<br />
So I hope you enjoyed these. I am so thrilled with them and they were absolutely worth the month and a half wait!!<br />
<br />

I have made it to 250 GFC friends and I just want to say thank you so much to everyone who loves nail art and polish as much as I do. You all make me want to keep growing in my skills and keep posting what I create.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I spent the weekend in Canada for my cousin's wedding. I did my mani in the hotel on Friday and tried so hard to get a good pic on my phone but I just couldn't make it happen. So the nails are two whole days old and a little worn.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gKtWg9e84V4/UJcJ0DymBUI/AAAAAAAAByM/6IlexiF1O3c/s1600/003_demo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-gKtWg9e84V4/UJcJ0DymBUI/AAAAAAAAByM/6IlexiF1O3c/s640/003_demo.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I did my nails to match my dress, which was mostly red and at the bottom had a stripe of black, white and black again.<br />
<br />
They are a little wobblier than I would have liked. If I had been at home with all of my supplies, I would have redone them. As it was, I only had what I brought with and it was around 11pm.<br />
<br />
I used Zoya Elisa as the base, Then painted the tips Sinful Colors Snow Me White. I used Orly nail art brush in Jet Black to do the stripe over the white and on the tip. Then a nice healthy dose of Butter London Hardwear.<br />
<br />

Hope you all had as fun a weekend as I did :)KariAnnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09777808033261767713noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660991346958341711.post-38797225705773472552012-10-31T15:45:00.002-07:002012-10-31T15:45:55.441-07:00This Is Halloween Challenge: Recreate Your FavoriteHAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!<br />
<br />
So today I was supposed to recreate my favorite Halloween mani. I found <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/247205467017382528/" target="_blank">this one</a> and knew I had to do it.<br />
<br />
Here is my take on the spider web mani.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Znwl4sWcxYM/UJGoVfzvBgI/AAAAAAAABws/Tg8jWQtz6kc/s1600/004_demo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Znwl4sWcxYM/UJGoVfzvBgI/AAAAAAAABws/Tg8jWQtz6kc/s640/004_demo.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I used Ulta Sun Of A Gun as a base. Then I used two of Orly's nail art paints (Jet Black and Platinum) to create the webs. After that I stuck some little silver ball decals from <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/247205467017382528/" target="_blank">The Born Pretty Store</a> throughout one of the webs. Topped it all off with a healthy dose of Butter London Hardwear top coat. <br />
<br />

<br />
First of all, I want to say thank you to all my followers. I have been neglecting my Blogger duties and none of you left me. I super appreciate it :)<br />
<br />
So YESTERDAY was supposed to Graveyard nails on the This Is Halloween Challenge. But I kind of missed it. As well as skipping Witch nails on Friday all-together (bad Blogger. BAD!)<br />
<br />
But I think I may have redeemed myself with these ones.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gdGnDd9RroA/UJAHTcS-IOI/AAAAAAAABvA/XfD0EYIcP-k/s1600/003_demo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-gdGnDd9RroA/UJAHTcS-IOI/AAAAAAAABvA/XfD0EYIcP-k/s640/003_demo.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I used <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/DaringDigits?ref=shop_sugg" target="_blank">Daring Digits</a> Girl's Night Out as my base. It is a beautiful Black/gray jelly base with multicolored holographic micro glitters throughout. I then busted out my brushes and painted on the gravestones and crosses with OPI Skull and Glossbones. The moon and stars is Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow over Orly Striping paint in Platinum. Then I used China Glaze Liquid Leather for the RIP on the ring finger and Zoya Logan for the grass. <br />
<br />

<br />
I just love this look and I can't wait to show you the look I have in mind for tomorrow (Haloween).<br />

I used Sinful Colors Snow Me White as the base, then used my sponge to sponge on Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow and Sun Kissed. Then topped it off with a coat of Butter London Hardwear Top Coat. </div>

<br />
So today was a hard day for me. I just want to share something with you first before we get to the polish. I hope that is ok.<br />
<br />
Today we had to put down my parent's cat, Kitty. She was around 17 years old and quite robust. She had a hard time getting around and was very tired. She would frequently lay in the same place for hours on end without moving.<br />
<br />
She was also, a wonderful kitty. When we first got her she was about a year and a half and very skinny. She was also very timid and and crabby. But through the years, she grew, not only in size but also in personality and love. She became the cat that was always hanging out with the family and wanting to be pet and loved. She was so sweet and I will miss her so much.<br />

Ok...Well, now that that is out of the way...let's move on, shall we?<br />
<br />
So today was Bats day on the This Is Halloween challenge. I had a really tough time with this. I couldn't figure out what to do. I knew if I tried to free-hand a bat, I would just muck it up. So I decide to check my local craft and Party supply stores. First stop was Party City, I thought I could find some table confetti and just glue it to the nail (you know the confetti that comes in various shapes that you sprinkle all over the table when you have a party?) I realized these were way to big to fit on the nail (grrr...) and headed to Joann Fabrics to see what else I could come up with.<br />
<br />
I found a tube of black glitter and thought that if i could freehand the shape of a bat in clear polish I could sprinkle glitter on it and make it sparkly. But when I got home, I just couldn't make it work. I then realized I had stamps! What?! I had my Bundle Monster stamping plate in 213 and 224. So this is waht I came up with.<br />

<br />
It's hard to see, but I kind of think it looks like a bat flying against the dusk sky.<br />

<br />
I used Nicole by OPI Listen To Your Momager and gradiented to OPI Russian Navy. Then I mixed some Sinful Colors Snow Me White with Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow to get the right shade for the moon and used my small brush to paint it on. Then I used China Glaze Liquid Leather to stamp on the bats and the house.<br />

<br />
This was supposed to go up yesterday but I got completely swamped with studying and homework. I'm a bad blogger :(<br />
<br />
Anyway today is Zombie nails on the blog as part of the This Is Halloween nail art challenge.<br />
<br />
<br />I could not think of what to do for these...faces? Mangly nails? Bloody nails? I found lots of ideas online but I just knew that I am such a beginner I could never do some of those. But I found <a href="http://kurlyqt70.tumblr.com/post/10842971021/kazoos-zombie-nails-inspired-by-these-guys-i" target="_blank">these nails</a> by Kazoos and decided to recreate them. <br />

<br />
Today I have a review for you! Yay, I was chosen to review a new indie polish! I'm so excited, I feel like I am making it big in the blogging world. LOL.<br />
<br />
I have here for you Tipsy Turvy Nails, Aurora Borealis. It is a very pretty shimmery blue base with teal, silver and pink hex glitters in various sizes.<br />

<br />
This is a lovely polish, it covered completely in 2 coats, the glitter application was very smooth. I am very happy to be able to give a good review.<br />

<br />
I am so in love with my nails today it makes me really, really sad to think about taking them off. I have gotten so many compliments on them today at work. People couldn't believe I did them myself (silly commoners, lol). I can't believe how great (and adorable) they turned out!<br />
<br />
So it is Jack-O-Lantern day on the This Is Halloween nail challenge.<br />
<br />

<br />
I used Cirque Kabocha, a lovely orange, glow-in-the dark jelly that I won in the giveaway by <a href="http://www.ooohshinies.com/" target="_blank">Ooh, Shinies</a>. Then I used my striper polish from Orly in Jet Black to paint the cute little faces. And used my tiny little brush to paint the stems on using Sinful Colors Last Chance.<br />
<br />

<br />
I love how imperfect the faces are. Because, seriously, who can actually cut a straight line in a pumpkin?<br />
<br />
Best part?...<br />

<br />
Hee hee. Did I scare ya?<br />
<br />
So today is Ghosts on the "This is Halloween" challenge.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Look what I did!<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Lightbox, no flash</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
I started with Ulta Little Black Dress. I didn't want to just use black. So this one is a nice black with a subtle reenish-gold/silver shimmer. I used Sinful Colors Snow Me White for the stamped ghosts (BM plate 223) and to freehand the ghost on my ring finger.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Lightbox, with flash</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
Then I used Wet n' Wild Fantasy Makers Go With The Glow freehanded over the white on the little ghost. And added eyes.<br />
