Pardon My Nails Inspired Mani

Hey guys! Super quick post today of some nails Im not particularly happy with but wanted to share anyway because not all manis can be perfect!



This is a mani that was inspired by Sarah from Pardon My Nails who created this mani a while back and when we did our mani swap I was torn between which ones to do. After opting for some Emma Bridgewater nails I decided to revisit her posts and create this mani later on which I have just got round to doing!




These nails immediately caught my eye and Im gutted I couldn't make them look quite as good as hers but oh well, they are still fun!



To created these I simply made a base of lines using some striping tape and sealed them in with my Seche Vite.

Then I create blobs of colour using a whole variety of Barry M polishes, attempting to make them look roughly like floral shapes.



To finish I used a black Gel Pen to draw on some outlines for the flowers and leaves. Ta daaaaaa! Obviously I sealed it all in with another coat of Seche Vite and did a lot of clean up but you get the gist!



I hope you like these nails and please go and check out Sarah's blog. She honestly posts some amazing swatches and nail art.
