Vintage Floral nail art

Hello!!!
Happy New Year!

Just before Christmas I received an e-mail from Born Pretty Store. I am part of the affiliate program and this company always has the best nail trend items at the best price.

Today I felt like experimenting with tools and techniques!

I really felt in love with this Flower pattern water decals .

As you can see from pictures it shows an intricate black and white floral pattern with beautiful blooms and bunches of retro florals. To tell the truth the design is in black and rest of the sticker is transparent, so you can use it on any background.

That's why a strange idea came to my mind. I could use the water decal and colour it with the reverse stamping technique.

After pluging it into water the design will separate from the paper. I placed it onto the soft head of a stamper and started colouring the flowers and the blooms with acrylic paint and a small brush.
I haven't tried with nail polishes but I guess that too much polish would melt the stickers and ruin the nail art.

So I let the acrylic paint dry. ( You realize that it's all dry because it will became matt).
Then you can use the decal as a sticker and place it onto the nail.
I secured it with a matt clear top coat.

For this nail art I used a greige purple base on all the nails and a burgundy and light peach for flowers, light green for leaves.
 

I really hope you like it!

Best wishes,

Flower pattern nail art!

Hi guys!
it's time for a new nail art!
This one is really easy and quick because I used some water decals from Born Pretty Store.
The company kindly send me some items.

This flower pattern is gorgeous, the shades shift from burgundy, red and orange, it has a touch of green too. the background is sheer so you can pair it with a lot of other colours, I chose the white because I wanted to show the perfection of this design but you can wear it with a peach pink, light green, beige or a yellow too.

You will receive a sheet with two different prints ( I will use the other one for another nail art). You have enough decals for covering all your ten nails. These declas are too beautiful I didn't want to use them all for only one manis so I used the dacals for two accent nails.
These decals are very thin and you can stretch them a bit so that the design will follow tha natural curve of you nails.
If don't know how to apply them you can read this post.
On the rest of the nails I did a degradè using some matching shades.

I hope you'll like it!

Pink flower nail art with Born Pretty Store stickers

Hello!
Today I've received some products from Born Pretty Store.
The first product that I would like to show you is this sheet of pink flowers stickers.

You can use my coupon code at check out to get 10% off RASX31 on www.bornprettystore.com

You can find it at this link, I chose #1 decoration

The sheet will arrive in a plastic bag that prevents it from any damage.
The stickers are all individuals and very easy to use.
Make sure your nail is clean or your nail polish is completely dry. Select a design and peel it off the transparent sheet. Than place the desing on your nail, rub it gently so that you can prevent air bubbles. Apply a layer of top coat for the best result.

The stickers are in different sizes so that can fit fingernail, toe nail or nail tips.
The design it's really delicate, a silver outline and some light pink flowers and blossoms.
You can use it with light colours, it goes well with white, pink and light blue but I think it stands better on darker ones.

That's why I created this simple nail art.
The base is a simple black nail polish, then I created a "distressed effect" with two metal colours a purple from Ceramic Effect Layla n CE71 and essence 29 paradise.
Then I applied Born Pretty Store's stickers,
To give and edgy effect I left half of the ring finger nail clear.
This is the final result.
I hope you'll like it!
