Poppy Fields

So I was looking through my many packets of flower seeds, and I ran into my Oriental Poppy's and instantly I wanted them on my nails. I've been wanting to do more floral patterns, not just the rose. So I figured this would be the perfect opportunity. Also I want to add that right in the middle of my first finger I saw a giant white ugly spider on the screen and instantly flipped out. My right hand looks way better but I did not in any way stick to my mock up plan. I rushed through it, I didn't want to be near the computer any longer!! Oh that reminds me, I made another tutorial, but first the pictures of the mani.





I think the thumb came out beautifully. The rest of the fingers on the left hand remind of a lot of the Super Mario games, lol. I'll post the pictures of the right hand later on in the day. I really need to work on getting a new camera. My phone isn't cutting it at all. After this I'll share the tutorial. :)

For this Mani I used:
Blue base is China Glaze For Audrey, the Green is China Glaze Tree Hugger, the dark red in the poppy is Sally Hansen Nail Growth Miricle Divine Wine the Lighter red is Essie (I still can't remember the name of it) the Black is Finger Paints Black Expressionism The Yellow is Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Mellow Yellow The Gray in the cloud is Pure Ice Kiss Me Here and the White is Finger Paints Paper Mache.

Pink Roses Leopard Polka Dot Lightning Bolt Nails..

Hii :)
I did these last night, I kind of borrowed the idea from Chalkboard Nails. I also wanted to give the roses another try and I simply cannot pass up the opportunity to do leopard print. So I took the advice of my Photoshop tutorial, and I think the roses turned out pretty good. I'm sure the more I practice the roses the better I'll get.




Maybe I should have done something with the middle finger. Its ok, I bought 6 new nail polishes today I'm sure I'll do something different tonight, although I'm really enjoying all the funky designs.

Also, I think Its time for a new camera. Maybe for my birthday I'll get a nice Canon :D I hate using my phone but it'll have to do. My Kodak took its last picture last winter during a blizzard. I just had to go outside and take pictures. So I put it off, I was kind of mad at myself for being so careless. But its time to move on :) 

What I used:
Pink is Pure Ice - Creme Flirt Alert, the Nude inside the roses and leopard and the lightning bolt is Essie - Mambo, the Black I use is Finger Paints - Black Expressionism. Top Coat - Essie Shine-E. I couldn't find my base coat so I went without :(
