Happy Easter

As I'm not religious, Easter for me means creme eggs in multi packs in the supermarket. This design was suggested to me by a colleague at work who had seen it on the facebook page of a local nail bar. You can see the design here:  https://www.facebook.com/279377018743419/photos/pb.279377018743419.-2207520000.1398016565./832146996799749/?type=3&theater . This is my version of the Creme Egg splat design. Details after the jump.

Mini Egg Nails

Image
Inspired by this  Easter Egg Nails  tutorial on the 10 Blank Canvases blog I thought I would have a go at doing mini egg nails for Easter.  This is the end result: I skipped the white acrylic paint stage over the top of the colour as I was away from home for the weekend and didn't have all my kit, but I'm quite pleased with the result. From left to right I used Collection Candy Floss, Barry M Blue Moon, Barry M Lemon Ice Cream, Barry M Berry Ice Cream and Barry M Mint Green.  The speckles were painted on using a fine nail art brush and a chocolate Brown Miss Sporty polish 2300 (I think).  This was all topped off with a coat of Essie Matte About You.
