Strawberry Nails

Hello everyone!

Yesterday, I showed you all a swatch of China Glaze's Strawberry Fields. It inspired me to do some nail art with the polish. Plus, I just can't get enough of strawberries! Let's see the design!

For this design, I started out with Strawberry Fields as my base color. With a detail brush, I made rounded triangles for the strawberries (think of an upside down triangle with a rounded out bottom) with Essie Lights and Wet n Wild's Tickled Pink.

Next, I created the stems of the strawberries with my detail brush with Essie Mojito Madness. For the dots, I used a dotting tool and created dots in the empty spaces of the nail with Sinful Colors Snow Me White. Finally, I topped it off with a top coat.

I love this design. I think I could have used another coat of Essie Lights for the strawberries because the color kind of blends in with the base color. It is a good color for strawberries though (and roses too!). I wish I could keep it on my nails forever, but I know I'm going to get sick of it eventually lol. 

What do you think of this design? 

Thanks for reading!

31DC2013 Day 30: Inspired by a Tutorial

Hey everyone!

I was so busy trying to change the layout of my blog that I didn't get a chance to do both of the nails that I said that I was going to do for today. I wasn't even planning on changing everything; it kind of just happened! I think the new layout looks cleaner now, which is what I was trying to go for in the beginning. What do you all think of the new layout?

Today's prompt is inspired by a tutorial! I love watching nail tutorials on Youtube and I was inspired to do a tutorial from one of my favorite Youtuber's: CreativeNailArt. I really love her tutorials and designs. They're simple, short, and very easy to follow. For today's nails, I followed her tutorial on these cute strawberry nails! I'll be putting a link to the video at the end of the post.

Colors Used:
Sinful Colors Energetic Red
Sinful Colors Pistache
Sinful Colors Let's Meet

I absolutely love these nails. They're so adorable! It doesn't help that my favorite fruit is strawberries either. These were also so simple to do. I remember trying strawberry nails a while ago and I wasn't successful. Now I know that I can do them!

What do you think of these strawberry nails? Tomorrow is honor nails that you love!

Until next time!
