In some methods you could possibly say that as we speak’s look is the final Valentine’s Day nail artwork I really painted for February. It’s very near being a totally pink monochrome. It’s a few ball in order that’s fairly romantic. It has a floral background and horny individuals on it. Particularly reasonable. It’s additionally Halloween-esque as a result of vampires. However let’s face it, we have now Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Now we have True Blood. Now we have Vampire Diaries. Vampires are a year-round factor and I do know balls get scheduled all year long, regardless that I’m not invited. So let’s simply agree that the best particular person may get pleasure from this vampire nail artwork all 12 months.
But in addition I’m just a bit 24/7 Halloween. Which might be why I’m sporting glow at midnight ghost socks proper now. 🤣

One of many issues I’ve been raring to color is a mani the place the nails have two totally different colours and the identical stamping sample and also you simply flip them. So mild sample on darkish; darkish sample on mild. The arduous half is that almost all polishes will look totally different when stamped on mild or darkish colours as a result of they aren’t totally opaque. You possibly can generally discover a stamping plate with two variations of the identical picture and one is the inverse of the opposite so that you solely want to make use of one polish to stamp, however that may be very uncommon. And you may nonetheless run into the issue that I did the place the inverse picture has very huge areas the place the polish wants to select up completely and you might be struggling. So I ended up not even utilizing the inverse picture for the rose sample and simply swapped which polish was the bottom.
However in case you peeled again all of the layers of polish and stamping on this mani, you’ll discover the underside layer is a distinct shade and one nail even has that totally different base polish and a stamped sample that doesn’t even present up on it b/c there isn’t sufficient distinction. Why, sure, I did fumble my option to success right here. Generally testing out what you’re planning is the good factor to do and I don’t do it. LOL
However I really like how this turned out and I’m simply bummed my laziness about including nail polish thinner to my smudge free prime coat resulted in loads of undesirable bubbles. I edited out some, however not all. It’s…fairly unhealthy. 😬

Instagram is giving me loads of grief about tagging individuals in my feedback so I’m kinda again to sq. one on serving to y’all discover the members. Linking to accounts nonetheless means you’d should scroll in case you got here to this put up later. One of the best ways can be to mainly stalk their accounts and hyperlink every put up straight, however that’s loads of additional work that I don’t have the time/power for. Particularly since life can occur generally and a participant may find yourself posting their design months later. Sadly, I’m most likely simply going to wave the flag of give up right here. 😕
