This design was inspired by my love for roses and pastels! It gives off a cute vintage look and is so simple to create! I concentrated on using a mixture of pinks and blues as I find they always look so nice together! This is probably my favourite nail art I have done yet. Previous nails arts include pokemon balls, space nails, polka dots, cheque, etc! So I decided that I would share it with you so heres a 'How To' on creating this nail art (side note: The pictures are of me doing my right hand using my left hand which is not my writing hand so it doesn't look as 'perfected')
Step 1:
Paint the base colours, I went for a pastel pink and a duck egg blue
Step 2:
Use a white nail art pen or brush to draw the lines over the pink. If you don't have a nail art pen used a normal fine paint brush or a sharp pencil you don't mind getting nail varnish on.
Step 3:
Add blobs of the original pink over the blue. It doesn't matter if they aren't even as long as they are roughly the same size.
Step 4:
Add blobs of a darker pink over and around the pastel pink, this will give the effect of additional petals.
Step 5:
Add smaller spots of a darker pink on top of the forming flower petals, this will give even more of an effect of various petals.
Step 6:
With a green nail varnish use the same equipment you used for the line drawing to draw the leaves on to the roses giving them their final form. If the roses appear too dark also add aspects of the pastel pink to them in tiny specs.
Step 7:
Cover the nail varnish with a clear coat, wait until its dried then clean the edges. After this you're good to go!
I hoped you liked this quick 'How To' blog post and i would love to see your response to this or even your own nail art. I may even make a post showing you guys my favourite ones. To send me an image of your nail art tweet me at @rachellablogs or email at rachellablogs@gmail.com
