Hi Guys! I have decided to participate in a nail art challenge that was created by Lindsey from . It is a 4 week challenge, with 2 theme days per week. I will be trying to post on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as are most of the other participants, I believe. Everyone is free to choose the days they post on though, so there may be some different ones.
Day one requires you to use pink polish. I decided to use China Glaze Strawberry Fields, because it is a gorgeous color and I don't reach for it enough. I did 3 coats of that, and topped with one coat of OPI I Lily Love You. Then I mattified the whole thing, because who doesn't love matte flakie polishes! I use Essie Matte About You as my matte top coat.
(Indoors, Flash)
I tried to choose a "girly" stamp, and used one I hadn't done before. I used Konad M57 for the leopard lace design. I stamped using Finger Paints Black Expressionism.

The last picture is from my light box which washed out the color a bit, the flash photos are more true to the color of Strawberry Fields. Its a bit easier to see the flakes and the design on the light box photo though.
