Its so vintage and cute right? Let's see how it turned out on my nails!
For my base color, I used American Apparel Hassid. Taking OPI Ali's Big Break, I dotted on dots with my dotting tool to represent the cherries. Then with China Glaze Exotic Encounters, I used my dotting tool to create the stems and leaves. Seeing that the red I used wasn't showing up really bright, I took American Apparel Poppy and dotted dots on top of my previous red dots to make the color pop off the nails more.
I'm disappointed with how this turned out. This was such a fail manicure to me. The stems and leaves turned out really bad since I was using a dotting tool to create them. Not the best I've done but I gave it my best try. What do you think of this manicure?
I think it looks great! And the bathing suit is adorable :)
ReplyDeletecute mani... love the print on bathing suit.
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteI'm saying this again, said it on Facebook earlier but I think this is really cute :) And I would so like to get that bathing suit!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Cat! I really appreciate it! :)
DeleteCherries ♥♥ It's always a bummer when you picture something in your head and it just doesn't pan out in real life... I think this is totally cute, though.
ReplyDeleteThanks Liesl! Yeah, its not what I thought it was going to turn out to be. Glad to see that everyone else is enjoying it :)
DeleteI love this! You did such a great job!!

Thank you Christina! :)
DeleteI think that this looks fab! I love that you didn't go with a traditional bright green for the stems, it creates a much softer look. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Jennie! I appreciate it :)
DeleteLove the suit - I need to buy that. :P I don't think it's a fail at all! Maybe the leaves could have been a bit brighter of a green (not bright green though!), but other than that, I think it looks really well done!
ReplyDeleteI agree! The bathing suit is so cute! :) Thank you! Yeah, I'm just really hard on myself and I expected this to have turned out way better than it is.
