Nail Art Ideas Linkup - March - Spring Flowers



Hi all!

Spring flowers... there are so many to choose from. But, I've never done a "cherry blossom" type mani before, until now that is. Even if it doesn't necessarily have to be cherry blossom, could be peach blossom, or any other Prunus species. We have a small peach and a cherry in a pot in our garden (specifically grown for a pot), and they're in bloom now. Well, the peach is nearly done blooming, the cherry is only just starting out.


Today's polishes:



My Dazzling Pink base is 3 coats. This is the only one in this range (that I own) that needs 3 coats. I used a small nail art brush to paint the branches and flowers. For the flowers I started with white, then added some of the peach in the center and finished it off with a tiny dot of Dazzling Pink. Everything was topcoated with HK Girl top coat.




Even if this is pink, I like it a lot and know what the fuss about "cherry blossoms" is about. It's just lovely!

Check out the other manis below!
