Flip Flop Challenge: Wings/Outline

Wednesday 27 February 2013

I will be catching up I promise lol... Taking some time to get my motivation back after so long... But this evening I felt inspired and am planning to get them all in by the end of the week! I'll be glad in a way because there are so many other ideas stacking up that I want to try!! I think I was biting off a little more than I could chew doing another challenge immediately after my first but nevertheless I shall finish the list :) Today I chose the wings, it's not a look I've tried before and was worried it wouldn't be as easy as it looked but it was! I really enjoyed doing them and I am sooo pleased with the result!! Better than I expected :) I started with three coats of the orange - this cocktail polish was ideal for this mani! Next I painted the sweeping arc on the left side of the tips using the brush in the black polish. I then used a striper brush to add two thin arcs towards the cuticles and the joining lines; finished off with white dots using the very smallest dotting tool. All dried very quickly and I'll say again - I love them!
