I've had this mani saved in archives since late last summer....it was a mani I done using a polish I had picked up while back to school shopping with my daughter; she was shopping clothes, I was shopping nail polish! Seen this cool coloured polish at Bootlegger so bought it; this was the mani I came up using it.
Started with a base of two coats of unnamed Kismet polish. Beautiful colour...horrible formula. Streaky mess. This polish had random grit in it, resulting in bumps throughout. Urrggg. So disappointing.
I had to layer it with something to try to salvage it with one of a few polishes on hand as I was away for the weekend...so added a coat of WnW Spontaneous Combustion and topped with SV. I think the layering helped. A bit. I guess...
Decided to stamp it; I thought this turned out kinda cool...like stained glass...almost? Maybe...(This mani was done around the time that my iPhone had to be reset and because I keep all my mani notes in it, the plate info was lost. If I come across the plate info, I'll update the post. Sorry.)
I'm not sure if you can tell, but I then fished out a few of the glitters from Spontaneous Combustion and used them to dot the centres of the flowers. Topped with SV.
This was the big news I had back late summer when I had drafted this post...always a thrill to see see these type of milestones! Even now to have over 1500 follows is exciting....so if you're a new follower since then...or have been following for a while now.....thanks for stopping by and checking out my little blog! I know I don't share much about my life....have no funny antidotes or clever writing to go along with my pix...and there are many times that my cuticles are less then stellar, hang nails are common, clean up not the best and sometimes the lighting is off...(I'm surprised I have any followers sometimes! lol!)....my blog is usually pretty minimal with just lots of pix of a mani from start to finish with some rambling in between (OK, I know I do tend to be a little wordy so probably lots of rambling in between is more accurate!)....so thanks for stopping by!
