Dotted Flowers

I've been seeing this dotted flower design circulating Instagram lately and thought I would give it a go.

I like this particular design because it's easy to create I don't do near enough floral designs. Let's get started!

I started off with a base of Lime Crime Peaches <3 Cream. Then I took LynB Designs Nightmare Revisited and a large dotting tool to create the flowers. After I've created the flowers I went back with Lime Crime Peaches <3 Cream and a slightly smaller dotting too and overlapped the first dots. Then I used LynB Design Nightmare Revisited to add dots in the middle of the flowers and smaller dots around the flowers. I finished this design off with a layer of Seche Vite to seal everything in. 




I wasn't sure how I would like this design but I ended up really loving it. The color combination and this flower design gives the whole manicure an almost 80's feel don't you think?

What's you favorite floral design?

Thanks loves :)

Nude and White Floral "Lace"

One of my most favorite color combinations has to be the nude and white combination. It's so clean, fresh, and beautifully classic. 

That being said I have a super fun and fresh nude and white floral "lace" design to share with you all today. I don't believe that this particular stamp is supposed to be a lace design but I think that stamped over nude like this gives it a pretty lace effect. So I'm calling it lace. The end. 

I started this design out with a base of OPI Bubble Bath. I absolutely love this shade its the perfect nude and it makes your nails look clean and polished which is so important for a nail blogger like me because my nails get really stained from all of the different polishes I wear. When Bubble Bath was dry I stamped over each nail using Bundle Monster plate BM-204 and PMTG White Undies. I sealed all of that in with a coat of Seche Vite and finally added one coat of NYC Matte Me Crazy for a beautiful matte finish.




I could have worn this design for weeks! I'm totally smitten with it. The matte finish gives the classic color combination an almost edgy finished look and it's just perfect <3

Whats your favorite color combination? Let me know in the comments!
