Blog Your Heart Out Award

I have been nominated for the Blog Your Heart Out Award by the lovely Jade from Life in Lacquer  I'm really flattered that she has nominated me, and the rules for this award are to answer 5 questions put to me, and nominate 5 other bloggers for it.  So here are my answers:

1. What/who encouraged you to start blogging?
I had been reading others blogs and doing my own nail art for about 6 months and had considered starting a blog for quite a while.  I was very interested in taking part in nail art challenges etc, and wanted somewhere to spam people with my nail art who were just as interested in at as I was.  Then I got to grips with stamping, and started doing my nails ALL the time, so that just sort of swung it for me.  

2. How did you choose what topic(s) to blog about?
I wasn't really interested in blogging about anything else, so it was a no brainer for me!

3. What is something that most people don't know about you?
Either that I'm a metal head, and hate pop music (personally), or that I love American Football and am a San Diego Chargers fan!  Yes, I am British, but my boyfriend got me to watch a game a couple of years ago, and I haven't missed one since.  I love it!

 4. What three words describe your style?
ummmmm............zombie, fairy, rainbows : D

 5. What do you like to do when you are not blogging?
Listen to music (whilst moshing alone in my bedroom lol), read, watch sci-fi/fantasy, spending time with my bf, watch football and play Mario Kart Wii : D

The 5 blogs I would like to nominate for this award are:
The Lucky Magpie
Lost and Found
Vicky Loves Nails!
ginger loves make-up
My Mint Nails

I tried to pick ladies who haven't already done this award, but if you have, you're not obliged to accept.  You can ignore it, just do the questions, or do the whole thing again if you wish to.  It's totally up to you!  If you want to accept, then just answer the 5 questions in a blog post, and nominate 5 other bloggers.
