Baltimore Ravens Nails - Week 1 - Ravens vs. Denver Broncos

Kate's Nails 

It's football season again!!!!!  This year, I decided that instead of doing a purple manicure each week, I'll do a manicure that represents that week's match up.  This week the Ravens are taking on the Broncos in Denver.  I can't wait for the game to start - I hope everyone has their purple on and is ready to go!

Baltimore Ravens Nails - SUPERBOWL!!!!!

Kate's Nails 

Well guys, this is it - my last Ravens nails for the season! I have had a lot of fun doing a different Ravens manicure for each game.  Thanks to everyone that read the posts each week, and a big thanks to those that shared my designs on Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter!

I am beyond excited for the game tonight.  I became a Ravens fan pre-Flacco/Harbaugh, when the team was struggling, and I never thought back then that I would see the Ravens in the Superbowl.  This season has been a roller coaster (this post sums it up perfectly), but I think the Ravens will bring the Lombardi Trophy home to Baltimore!!

If you have done any Ravens nails, please e-mail a picture to miscmanis@gmail.com.  I'd like to do a post of nails done by our readers :)

Baltimore Ravens Nails - AFC Championship - Baltimore Skyline

Kate's Nails 

Hard to believe that we're at this point again - an AFC Championship against the New England Patriots.  The winner of this game is headed to the Super Bowl!  Last year it came down to one (horribly missed) field goal.  Here's hoping for a better outcome this year!

For my nails this week, I painted the Baltimore city skyline.  My camera had a really hard time capturing these, but you get the idea.  Let's hope the Ravens can bring a win back to Baltimore!

Baltimore Ravens Nails - Playoffs Week 2 - Ravens Eyes

Kate's Nails 

It's week two of the playoffs!! The Ravens are in Denver today to take on the Broncos.  It's going to be a tough game, but here's hoping we can make it to the AFC championships!

These nails are some of my favorite Ravens ones I've done.  Anyone in the Baltimore area should recognize these Ravens eyes.  They were on the M&T Bank Ravens car magnet recently, and are over the tunnel at M&T Bank Stadium where the players come out.  I was worried that I wouldn't be able to get them to look right, but I was able to do it on the first try!  

Go Ravens!!

Baltimore Ravens Nails - Week 17 - Liquid Sand

Kate's Nails 

It's the last week of the regular season, and the Ravens are in Cincinnati this week to play the Bengals.

My nails this week feature Can't Let Go from the Liquid Sands collection from OPI.  I didn't expect to see these polishes in stores until after the new year, so I was very surprised when Cara texted to say she saw them in Ulta (and that she picked this one up for me - what a good friend!). This was a two-coater, and the texture is really interesting.  I've never seen any polish like this, and I can't stop looking at it!

Sorry for the late post today - I've been at a family party all day.  Merry Christmas, Ravens Nation!!

Baltimore Ravens Nails - Week 15 - Fuzzy Purple

Kate's Nails 

The Ravens are back at home this week against the Broncos.  The game starts in 6 minutes, so I don't have a lot to say this week.  Go Ravens!

These nails started with a coat of Wet N Wild's Buffy the Violet Slayer.  I then added top coat, and sprinkled on purple flocking powder (Recollections brand from Michael's).  The football nail was done in OPI's You Don't Know Jacques and Sinful Colors Snow Me White.  The gold is Essie's Good as Gold.

Baltimore Ravens Nails - Week 14 - Beltway Nails

Kate's Nails

This week the Ravens take on the Redskins in the "Battle of the Beltways".  Since the teams are located so close to each other, this area is pretty equally split between Ravens and Skins fans. 

So for this week's nails, I painted the sign for I-695, which is the Baltimore beltway.  Here's hoping the Ravens win this one, because I don't want to listen to the Skins fans if we lose :-P

Baltimore Ravens Nails - Week 13 - Purple Patchwork

Kate's Nails 

This is a huge week for the Ravens!  If we beat the Steelers and the Bengals lose, we clinch the division.  A win over the Steelers is always a wonderful thing, but if we can clinch the division with it too, there would be even more reason to celebrate!!

I've been loving glitter polishes lately, and wanted to use some in my design today.  I couldn't decide which ones to use, so I used a few in this patchwork design.  I've done this design BEFORE, and really like how they look.

Baltimore Ravens Nails - Week 12 - Purple Ombré

Kate's Nails 

This week the Ravens take on the Chargers.  I'm wishing I was is San Diego for the game today - I'm hating this chilly, windy, Maryland weather!  

For these nails, I painted Butter London's Teetotal on my thumb, and then did the laces in Sinful Color's Snow Me White.  On my index finger, I painted Spoiled's 2 Weeks Sober.  Then for all the other nails, I mixed 2 Weeks Sober with Snow Me White to get progressively lighter colors.  I made sure to not use any fast drying colors so that I could keep mixing as I painted and not have to worry about the colors getting goopy.  This is an easy way to do ombré nails without having to coordinate a bunch of different polishes. 

Go Ravens!!

Baltimore Ravens Nails - Week 11 - Purple Cheetah Print

Kate's Nails

This is my first manicure in a week! I decided to give my nails a week off to let them breathe, and heal a bit.  They were looking pretty rough, but with the help of nail whitener, cuticle gel, a buffer, and some Vaseline, they're looking much better now!

So this week is a big week in Raven's football.  We are playing our biggest rival - the Pittsburgh Steelers.  It's always a good game when we play the Steelers, and I would love to beat them on their home turf tonight!  

For this week's nails, I went with a purple cheetah print.  I'm not usually one for animal prints, but I really loved Cara's PINK CHEETAH NAILS, and have been wanting to try out her method for creating them.  I started with a base of Essie's Lilacism and then used Bundle Monster plate BM-221 to stamp on the black.  My stamping polish was Wet N Wild's Ebony Hates Chris. I then used my small dotting tool to fill in the spaces with Wet N Wild's On a Trip.  The football nail is my usual combination of Butter London's Teetotal and Milani's White on the Spot.

Go Ravens!!!!!

Baltimore Ravens Nails - Week 10 - Drips

Kate's Nails 

This week the Ravens have a home game (woo!!) against the Raiders.  I had a much more elaborate manicure planned for today, but I was out late last night and didn't have time to pull it off.  So I decided to go with some purple drips.  

Here's hoping the Ravens can keep the home game winning streak alive!
