I saw this tutorial on youtube a while back and recreated it for my boyfriend's sister (who's also my friend of course). You can see the photos of her nails at the bottom of this post.
As for my own nails.. I used:
Nina Ultra Pro Emerald City as the base
Stamped with BM-212 and Finger Paints Paper Mache
Dotted on gold (Zoya Goldie), blue (Zoya Tallulah), and purple (Finger Paints Vintage Violet)
This photo (below) is almost dead-on for Emerald City color accuracy, but as you can see my fingers looked incredibly yellow so I didn't really like it.. I have this issue a lot.. anyone have ideas how to prevent it from happening and still get color accurate photos?
And.. here are Shania's nails that I painted for her a few weeks back..






That is very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant! Love how you layered the dots to mimic the peacock feather. :)

ReplyDeleteOhh i love this :) It's really refreshing to see something different to leopard print or tiger stripes. Well done for getting out of your comfort zone. Such a pretty design.

ReplyDeleteLove this!
ReplyDeleteOH MY WOW!
ReplyDeleteYou pay such close attention to detail... this must have taken quite some time to complete but looks marvelous. How neat that you chose the peacock for animal print... not just the standard cheetah/zebrah that I tend to lean towards :D
