This is China Glaze's "VIII" with a hand painted acrylic design.  The formula of this polish is amazing, two easy coats here.  I love this dark cream purple!  The design is pretty simple, I used a striping brush to add the vines and then a detail brush to add the leaves and flowers.

Different Take on the Dotticure


This design was a show stopper, even my husband was really impressed with it!  The polish I used is Orly's "Wild Wisteria", a beautiful dark purple cream and the formula is perfect!
 
 
The design is very simple, I used a dotting tool and started with a purple acrylic paint, then added white to lighten the paint for the next set of dots over lapping the first dots.  This gave it a really cool blurred effect for how simple the design really is.

One of my Valentines mani's.  The base is a white from NYC and the design is done with acrylic's.  I enjoy the way this turned out!  Does anyone else hate painting with white nail polish as much as I do?
