Silver Leaf

     
      A leaf gradient! I haven't done one of these in a while! This time I used the silver leaf that I have instead of the normal gold that I use. I just used the imitation silver leaf foil that I got from dollarnailart.com. They call it "Foil Nugget Silver" But it's really just faux thin foil leaf. I'm pretty sure you could find it at any craft store. The blue that I used for this is Essence Colour & Go Walk On Air.

English Rose

    This is my first successful attempt at nail foils. I got my order from dollarnailart.com a few weeks ago and I immediately tried out some of the foils. My first few tries turned out really bad. I then found out that most top coats over the metallic foils completely wrinkle them. I was a little more than disappointed and kinda gave up on them for about 2 weeks.
     
      So, yesterday I was just messing around again and I used English Rose. A foil that I hadn't tried out yet on my nails. It's not metallic like most of the other foils that I got so I did put a top coat on it and it worked!


      English Rose is a very sheer, shimmery white with pinkish colored flowers. I put this over two coats of a white, Essie Blanc. My ring finger is OPI Teenage Dream from the Katy Perry collection that came out a while ago.

      I'm really happy with how this came out. I'll admit that I keep admiring them. They are just too pretty not to!
