Roses really smell like boo-boo

Sunday, August 29, 2010
Hi guys! Last day of the weekend and hopefully the last day of that much rain! It has been raining almost non stop here and it's not only a mood killer, it's also kind of a swatch killer. So sun, please come back. I miss you dearly! Today's post is with a swatch that isn't the best evahhh but I want to show you anyway. I did another version of the roses manicure.

Roses Nail Art Design Freehand

I used Color Club Uptown Girl as my base colour and Ciaté Main Stage and H&M Love at First Sight for the roses. The roses are swirled so if you want to do this practice on a paper first because you don't want to mix the two colours together into one. The leafs are swirled too, I used OPI Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow and OPI Green-wich Village for them.

I see these designs coming up more and more lately and I really like them. Have you tried this once? If so, show me! I like seeing other versions of this kind of manicure. :-)

Thanks for stopping by!
Michelle

Gorgeous roses! Nice color combination too.
I seriously wish I would be able to do this!! I tried this with the roses pattern from Konad with Konad special polish red and green and over a black base, but it was not visible at all :-(
pretty! I wish I could do stuff like this, Konad for me! lol www.konadqueen.blogspot.com

Ik moet dit echt een keer gaan proberen, ziet er zo mooi uit!
What a patience and a talent to draw those little roses! It's really adorable and honestly the swatch isn't bad at all. You know, I'm on the same latitude as you and it's been raining all day too...
Aww this is really pretty! Much like Monet's work I guess, from afar it looks really lovely and careful, but closeup its supposed to just be a swirl of dotted colours and "easy" and "simple". :P
These are really pretty! I wanna try 'em out soon! :D
Pretty! I'll try them out too. Hopefully they are as simply to do as you say! :)
Btw I'm a new follower!

that's an excellent idea, I might borrow it for my blog! I reckon it would look gorgeous as well with a blue base and tiny red strawberries, a la Cath Kidston. Inspiring!
