Allo polish Pals,
How are you today? Today's
manicure is actually one I created earlier in the week. I had so many
good idea's planned that once again I was trying too
hard. Sometimes I think that trying too hard can leave me
even less productive. Recently I was doing some googling for
interesting creatures and I came across a little beauty called a
Poison Dart Frog. I was really taken to the blue shades and funky
pattern. You know I love blue! After I created this I suddenly
remembered that the ever so lovely Gelic had also done a poison dart frog in the past (I hadn't remembered which frog due to different colours, duuh). I
much prefer her version!
I
started with two coats of DA's '045' and created a gradient using
Gabrini in 'N04' which is a sheer bright neon blue. I then took W7's
black and created the spots using various sized dotting tools.
My
version of the Poison Dart frog is pretty simple but I do love the
blue gradient. Anything with blue or gradients and I'm happy. I'm
also hoping to try some fishy colours and patterns too very soon.
What
do you think of this manicure? Have you created manicures
based on natural colours and markings?
Enjoy
your Thursday!
Love
Ithi
This was so awesome! I loved this! :D Your version was awesome too. <3 All these "inspire by"-nail art's always end up so cool! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you Gelic, I prefer yours with the flash of bright colour! I didn't actually realize I had so many 'Inspired by' posts.. I think I should make it a permanent weekly thing or something! :)
DeleteWow this is so cool. Great gradient and colours. Love it. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Ann-Sofie! :)
DeleteOoh - liking this! Inspiration from nature always has to be good I think :)
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more, Amanda! Thank you :)
DeleteI am always happy when I see something blue on your/my nails, too! :-) Great idea to re-print a frogs pattern! Your gradients are truly awesome.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to find another blue fan! Thank you so much. I still think they can look really messy but I guess throwing a print on top can help save/hide that if need be! Hehe :p
DeleteIt’s really beautiful. I love it.
ReplyDeleteAwesome Ithi! I love this nailart, you've used such beautiful shades of blue, it's really vivid :)
