Happy 4th Y'all. Although a day late =) This design was created for Designernailvideo's nail art contest. The theme of course was 4th of July. I really went all out for this design because I really want to win this contest!!! Check out her channel and online store, she has some very great products.
For this design I used red white and blue glitter acrylic to create a different flag inspired design on each finger. On the thumb I only used red white and blue small round hexagon and shred glitter. To decorate the nails I used red & white hollow and tiny stars and red white & blue star rhinestones. I didn't post pictures of the products because I will be posting a haul with pictures this week that has most of the items I used.
OMG!!! This post is so totally late! I was trying to wait till I took pictures of the items I used but I haven't had the time. So I didn't want to wait any longer to post this design. I am soooo sorry about that. I'll be doing a haul video to update y'all on my collection additions. It's getting to be a lot so I guess it's about time.
To create this design I used the flesh colored acrylic that I made a while ago and used on the Royal Rose design. This time I added some white acylic to the mix and the results were much better looking. Still just a tad too dark for the practice finger, but perfect for me. Then I used black acrylic for the tip. I glued black tulle over the flesh acrylic to look like fishnet stockings. Next I applied gold glitter and a few stars on the tip of the nail. Next I used glue to apply hollow black stars & their centers over the fishnet and used gold ribbon to create the manicure line. After encapsulating the nail with clear acrylic, I finished the look by applying black star rhinestones over the gold ribbon. I hope you enjoy this design!
Hey Y'all! I've redone my nails and I wanna share the design. =) This design was inspired by designernailvideosdried flower sparkle tutorial. I really loved this design and knew I had to try it as soon as I saw it! I been wanting to try clear nails for some time now. The only thing I don't like about my version is that I applied it with the white glitter mix acrylic instead of the clear... but anyways it still looks awesome if I do say so! =D Plus I did make it thin and it's transparent so I think it turned out ok.
So on to what I used to create this design. I used about every color glitter mix I've made so far!!! =DDD {Except the yellow} I added some small round hex & shred to the orange & green and I don't have proper pics of those. I'm sorry! I was just so excited to post this design! I also used purple, pink and turquoise. Then, I used dried flowers & gold metal butterflies to decorate it. I'm not gonna post pics because the post directly before have the pictures of these mixes.
I also took a picture of each nail by itself so you can see each design =)
I really hope y'all like it! I'm so glad I tried it!
