All polish Pals!
How are you all doing today, is your
week going well? I feel like I blink past Monday and Tuesday, before
I know it we're at hump day. That said its great news if you are
looking forward to the weekend and already counting down the days.
Today I have a follow up nail art –
have you met Bertie Mcburtlebutton and Ms Blueberry-Baebae Bouffant?
They are a couple I've featured in my nail art before. So far they've
gone on two dates and poor Bertie has so far failed to impress his
lady friend – gotta love a trier.
So far they went on a boating lake in
which Ms Bluberry-Baebae had to eat the Marmite and cherry sandwiches
he'd packed.. yum. On their second date he took
her for a walk around his stately garden.. How much can go wrong
there? Well he fell in the pond for a start.
For some reason I guess he thought
taking her water skiing would be a fantastic idea for a date. They
won't get to talk much so there's little risk of him saying something
embarrassing.. He can show off his epic water skiing skills... Maybe
not.
So for this nail art I began with my
usual base coat, OPI's 'Nail Envy' – you can find out why thisis my
all time go-to top coat here. This was dry within a minute or so and
I followed on with ORLY's 'White Tips' – I used just one coat
since I'd be covering the entire nails with acrylic paint. On top of
the white polish I used a thin coat of my Pro-FX top coat and
proceeded with acrylic paints, painting on a peach, pink and purple
shade and blending them through to create the acrylic-gradient for my
sky. I used my Pure Color brush in #10 for all the smaller details.
Finally I sealed it all in with my ORLY top2bottom base/top coat and
eventually added Barry M's matte top coat just because I love how
smooth matte nail art looks.
Do you think Bertie managed to
impress on the third date? Where do you think he should take her
next?
Thank you so much for visiting today, I
always love it when you stop by! Don't forget to leave your thoughts
in the comments. Have an amazing day, I'll catch you again on Friday!
Love,
Ithi
Oh my goodness, your nail art storytelling is perfection. I think Bertie did a great job. LIke you said - A+ for trying :). I absolutely love your work. It is so beautifully designed and so unique.
