I guess this could be Day 15, Take 2?

HI! I just realized that my last post was the half way mark through this challenge I really suck at doing in a timely manner. But whatever. So I guess these nails could double as a delicate print or something, they were just something I really felt like doing (which really never happens since I never really get inspired), so I really couldn't pass up the opportunity. My best friend said they look like Frankenstein stitches and I don't know if I can argue. And then my mom told me they were the best ones I've ever done. MAKE UP YOUR MIND PEOPLE. Anyway, I started with a base of OPI My Vampire is Buff and used both of the colors in this months Julep Maven box. The pink is pretty terrible but it is alright in this context. The green is awesome because I have a really soft spot in my heart for mossy greens. Then I did the veins in the leaves with China Glaze Agro. Now here are my weird vine/frankenstein stitches nails.

Day 15 - Delicate print

HEY GUYS! I'M ALIVE! I've been busy with life and stuff and haven't been putting as much effort into my nails as I would have liked. Anyway, I was really struggling with what to do for this prompt, and then it was brought to my attention that I could use word association. Delicate = fragile = STAINED GLASS. WOOO.

Day 14 - Flowers

Well, sometimes being picky isn't too bad. I did some flower nail art the other day and wore it for one day and absolutely despised it. I literally could barely look at my hands and couldn't wait to get them off. So i re-tried. Good thing, because I wound up with the first nail art I've done in months that I actually really like. I spent 3 hours the other night watching one stroke tutorials and practicing on paper. Although I definitely haven't mastered the technique I think I'm starting to get the hang of it.

So, here is my failed attempt.

And here are my one stroke. I was too excited about them to clean them up to take original pictures and then when I went back outside post clean-up for more pictures it had started storming and was really dark out and I couldn't wait any longer to post them. Even though they're not perfect this is personal progress and I'm beyond stoked on it.

A few days late.. But 4th of July mani!

I was really unsure what to do for this, but I knew I had to do something. I remembered seeing these that Sarah from Chalkboard Nails did and I couldn't stop thinking about them. So here is my version!
