Yellow and green floral nail art

Hello hey hi,

How has your week been going?  Mine has been pretty busy and productive.  I am feeling a little weighed down but all the chaos around us at the moment.  As a country there just seems to be so much violence and hurt and law breaking.  It’s breaking my heart to see so many people in fear or pain or anger.  Anyway, I wish there was something I could do.  Other than that, it is a short week with Friday being a public holiday.  I am most excited.  Not only is Friday a holiday but so is next week Tuesday.  Of course, the smart thing to do was to take Monday off so basically there is almost a week holiday for us.  I am so excited.  I have thoroughly enjoy it because the public holidays get very few and far between after this so yay us!

Weeks ago I found these super cute little Sally Girl polishes in Dischem and I just loved the combinations.  One polish in particular really caught my eye so I knew I wanted to use it first.  Then I walked past another polish and I could see these two polishes work together and what do you know, an idea was born.  Let me show you what I did

I started with 2 coats of China Glaze – Just a little embellishment on my pinky and index and 3 coats of Sally Girl – So re-leafed on my middle and ring finger.  While that was drying I started with the decals on my stampers.  I stamped using Lina – Let’s doodle 02 and Mundo de Unas – Black. I then coloured in some of the flowers using China Glaze – Just a little embellishment and China Glaze – Emerald bae but I left some of the flowers empty so the base can shine through.  Once everything was dry I applied the stamping to my middle and ring fingers and then topcoated.  I was inspired by the matte finish of Just a little embellishment so I knew I wanted to keep it matte.  I finished off with a matte topcoat and voila!

I really like the colours and glitter in So re-leafed.  It’s an unusual combination and I really enjoy the darker greens / teals paired with it.  Just a little embellishment is so ridiculously gorgeous.  I am going to swatch it soon (nursing a break means I change polish as little as possible unfortunately) but the matte finish and the beautiful colour is just amazing!  What do you think?  Have you used Sally Girl polishes? I have grabbed quite a few and I am excited to use them.  So far I am really impressed with them.  They’re tiny…..but they’re mighty 😉 Do you have the China Glaze polish?

Thanks for reading,
