It's Day 04 of the 31 Day Challenge (31DC2014) and today's prompt is Green Nails!
I really wanted to do some tropical-type nail art and all I kept picturing is a chartreuse green base and leafy goodness! I just bought a bunch of MoYou London stamping plates and I knew I'd find the perfect image in one of the Mother Nature plates.
The plan was to stamp all 5 fingers but I kept messing up my middle finger... which lead to an accent nail that looked odd on its own... which lead to TWO accent nails kept super simple with some dots!
I started with 2 coats of my base colour, the more the merrier by essie (swatch here). I then added the dots and stamping with AmazON...AmazOFF by OPI (from the OPI Brazil Collection - Spring 2014). I used a tropical leaf from the Mother Nature 07 plate by MoYou London for the stamping. I finished off the look with a coat of Rica top coat!
Please follow the 31 Day Challenge using the hashtag #31DC2014 to check out how others are interpreting the challenge prompts. I hope you enjoyed today's post and check back tomorrow for Day 05... my favourite colour!
