Blue Willow (without the willow) inspired nails

Unfortunately I don’t have a picture of the cup that inspired these. It is stunning, so maybe I’ll show you one day. 

 
But these are the nails that I did 

I’ve said before but seriously you need to get the angle of the scraper right, the pressure, how you roll your stamper on the plate and then into your nail. 

I mean still easier than having to hand paint this design haha. 

I got the inspiration for the colours of this stamp from “Blue Willow” tea cups. They’re gorgeous. I wish I could find a large one that I could put all my tea in (I only like big cups because omnom tea). 

Cheeky shot with the bottle heading your way   

Materials used for this mani:

Polishes: @barrymcosmetics “Damson”, “White” and “Matte” top coat

Stamping plate: @bornprettystorenailart “BP-02” 

Stamper: “Creative Shop Stamper” from @rainbow_c_uk 

Liquid Latex: “ZAP!” From @rainbow_c_uk 

Scraper: an old library card
I’ll probably do a tutorial at some point for stamping, once I’m a pro. But I don’t know how I’d get the camera angles right… Like the stamp would be covering my nail and probably blocking the camera haha. So I’ve got to work that one out. 

 

Ombre obsession

You may have spotted a theme with my recent mani’s. Ombre. Yes I know. They’re beautiful. 

I’m trying to put all my ombre ideas together and I can’t wait for my nails to grow longer so I can do MEGA ombre’s. I think my nails are just long enough for a three ombre and pretty soon a four. 

I might try a four tomorrow. What do you think? I just LOVE ombre’s. 

 I used Barry M “Watermelon”, “Guava” and “Mint Green” for the ombre 

The stamping image was from @bornprettystorenailart “BP-48”
