Spring Flowers and Double Dots

Sometimes I have a bit of a roadblock about what kind of nail art to do over non-creme polishes. I tend to want to leave them as-is to not hide how pretty they are. I’m always pretty proud of myself when I do some art and end up really happy with it!

My base for this mani was two coats of Barielle – Satin Glow. I love this polish! It’s a pink leaning coral with tons of gold shimmer. It’s a beauty for spring or summer. After my base coat was applied, I slapped on a coat of Seche Vite and let that dry completely.

On my index and pink nails I stamped a simple daisy pattern from Cici & Sisi Set 4 plate 22 using Funky Fingers – Gesso. On my middle and ring nails, I did a simple pattern of white dots. While waiting for the dots to dry, I used OPI – Love.Angel.Music.Baby and Funky Fingers – Bizerk Turq to add centers to my stamped flowers and used these same colors again to double dot the white dots on my middle and ring fingers.

I gave all those dots a bit of time to dry and then applied a coat of Seche Vite to finish things off.

Here is a close-up macro so you can see the gorgeous shimmer in this color a bit better:
