Allo polish Pals,
How ya doing? Hope your having a good
start to the week. I have to be honest and admit I've been dreading
this week a little... ehh This weekend Mr Bravo
leaves for the Czech Republic’s open darts tournament which is
fantastic and I know he will do so well (again) but the idea of him
being gone for a few nights (The most we've been apart since I moved
to Holland) is already making me itch. That said I always support
him when it comes to dart :) Last week I took out my acrylic
paints and tried something new... 'One Stroke Flowers' ~ you can find
that on youtube. I'm not overly happy with my results and the
lighting for the pictures was rough but here we go!
So I started with two coats of China
Glaze 'Infra-red' which I will have to show you again another time as
its a subtle beautiful holo. I then took my acrylic paints and
attempted some flowers, dots and wiggles. Like I said I am not too
happy with it, Its not how I had hoped but practice practice
practice, I hope with more experiments I can one day perfect this!
I'm looking forward to some more paint-play! What do you think of this manicure? Have you used acrylic paints or tried 'The One Stroke' technique?
I hope you guys have a lovely day, I'll
see you on Thursday :)
Love
Ithi
This looked great! I've never tried the one stroke technique but I've wanted to try it for a while. :D
ReplyDeleteI understand what you mean about yout bf being away, even though one wishes them the best ever it doesn't stop one from missing them.
Thank you Gelic! I'd love to see your go of one stroke nails! I honestly started off a lot more confident than I should have :( You summed it up very well. xx
DeleteGood luck to your boyfriend on his tournament! I this you did a nice job. A million times better than my first attempt!
ReplyDeleteThank you Little Monster! I don't know but I'll certainly try again in the future! I bet yours was beautiful!!
DeleteWow this is so beautiful. Love the flowers and the colours.
ReplyDeleteI'm just as you, I don't like when my husband is away, but of course it's good to be apart some time, then you can long for each other and that's good. :-) Take care.
Thank you Ann-Sofie! You are right but like you already know, by three days I was desperate to have him back hehe :)
DeleteThis is lovely! You did a good job, Ithi! I don't like it to be without my man, too and can understand how you feel about the upcoming weekend! :-(
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Stadwaldvogel! I guess its something we all must unwillingly have to put up with from time to time! :(
DeleteThis nails look just amazing!
ReplyDeleteand I love the purple polish from china glace <3

Thank you Julia! I do too, its more of a deep red with subtle holo but it just so pretty when captured in decent lighting!
DeleteYou say you're not happy with it but they look amazing to me! I also really love that china glaze colour and it really goes well with the black and white flowers!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Alice, It was a lot trickier than I expected. I thought I'd just grab a paint brush and have it look like the youtube videos... so wrong!
DeleteA beautifull nailart!!! :)
