NOTD: Palm Trees in the Sunset

Here is my second kickstart summer look. Palm trees in a sunset. If I do something like this again, I think I will only put the trees on the thumb and ring. It is a little much on all five fingers! For the gradient background I used the sponge technique, pretty easy! Next time I would also use a thinner brush. These were also inspired by some postcards!

Nail Polish Used:
Sinful Colors "Snow Me White"
Pure Ice "Bite Me!"
              "Hot Tamale"
Revlon "Ocean Breeze" -- It is scented! Not only did it have the right color, it added to the design with the                      "ocean" smell.  

+ Americana "Ebony"

NOTD: Florida Flamingos

It's summer vacation time!!! To kick off my summer, I did a couple of designs. I call these my derpy flamingos. Haha! I have a huge collection of postcards so I went to them to figure out my inspiration. Speaking of postcards, I created a new blog about them! It is called Postcards, Many Postcards. Here is the link: postcardsmanypostcards.blogspot.com .

To make that light pinky green color, I layered the Sally Hansen HD with the Pure Ice. I am pleased with how it came out!
I used two of the loose glitters I got for Christmas!

Nail polish used:
Sally Hansen "Resolution"
Pure Ice "First Love"
Diamond Cosmetics in frosty pink
Sinful Colors "Snow Me White"
+ Americana "Ebony"
