Allo polish Pals!
How are you all doing
today? I hope you are doing well!
I decided that I'd break my 'every other day posting'
pattern yesterday because I've been having horrific laptop trouble. While I had
enough posts backed up I decided the blog would have a bank holiday
off too. I'm officially back on Windows 7 and it seems ok now.. and
the internet seems to hold up! Wahoo. So I used the day basically
running endless tests and trying to figure out what was wrong. I
also changed the blog design a little – its not quite finished so
please excuse how mix-match some of it all looks currently! It's a
work in progress!
Today's manicure came
from nowhere, again. I wanted to take part in another challenge on
Tiny Canvas (only the nicest nail community online) and the prompt
for this one was 'tree's'. I was so blank until...
Ps. You guys probably think I have some weird obsession with tree's considering my last two posts.. Baha!

I decided to really
play with the basics and textures of tree's as well as painting them.
I thought painting a wooden texture would be a nice little touch.
This is almost like looking over a fence, I think...well wood comes
from trees!
For this manicure I
began with Mezmris Nail Lacquer base coat and a second it was dry! I
applied two smooth coats of Barry M's 'White' and allowed to dry. I
then added a thing coat of Pro-FX's top coat, just because I am fussy
and like a paint/polish barrier! I then used my fave brushes and
acrylic paints to freehand my scenery. I finished it all off with
Mezmris Nail Lacquer's top coat and eventually added Wet 'N' Wilds
matte top coat.. because that's just what I do!
I am quite happy with
this manicure. I wish my reflections were a little better but hey, I
do my best! I think it looks better matte for sure, what do
you think? Do you like this tree inspired nail art?
