31 Day Nail Challenge - Day 14 - Delicate Print

I originally wanted to do lace nails for Day 14 but every time I tried I ended up taking them off and starting over. I just couldn't get them how I wanted and if I'm going to do lace nails I'm going to do it right so I decided to give that one a bit more practice.
But that left me with no ideas for Day 14, until I spotted THIS lace/henna style design on Pinterest. It's another Robin Moses design that I fell in love with, the video is HERE.






As you can see I didn't follow her video completely, just took a few bits that I really liked from it and added random bits of my own pattern. Also I didn't use pink foil because I don't have any (yet). 
I did toy with the idea of using pink glitter instead but decided it wouldn't give anywhere near the same effect so I just used some small diamantes.
I really like this henna look, it doesn't have to be perfect to look good either. Next time I want to try THIS one!

The polishes used are - 
Base - Barry M Nude.
Pattern - Barry M Mushroom.

31 Day Nail Challenge - Day 14 - Flowers

I find that when I'm in a nail art slump Pinterest always gets me back in the mood for painting my nails.
The other day whilst having a nosey around on there I came across THIS which I fell in love with and decided to use it as my inspiration for todays nails.





I started with two coats of Barry M Matt White then I used the water colour technique with Barry M Strawberry Ice Cream, Blueberry Ice Cream, Lemon Ice Cream, Mint Green and Berry Ice Cream. Then I used the same colours plus Peach Melba and Grey but not watered down to add details.
To finish off I used Models Own Disco Heaven glitter.

 Unfortunately I can't tell you much about who originally did this design as the site it's from HERE is in Japanese and the Google translate still doesn't make much sense of it. There are quite a few beautiful designs on there though!
