Neon Gradients with Stamping



Next theme for #WNAC is gradient. I did a green to purple gradient which I have been wanting to do for forever just never seemed to get around to it. I just think these colors mesh so well together.
I have two coats of Orly french white as my base coat. I sponged on Orly key lime twist, Orly skinny dip, and China Glaze plur-ple. I dabbed up and down and side to side to help blend the colors together. I sponged it about 6 times to make sure I got the opacity and gradient I wanted. I used a coat of out the door to help everything blend and dry before I stamped. Once dry I used Born Pretty Store plate bp24 with Mundo de unas white to stamp on the floral image. One more coat of out the door to seal in the stamping.

Blue Orchids


How else loves those pretty blue orchids that you always see in stores?? I just think they are so delicate and dainty. We all know that they aren't natural but they are so pretty that it doesn't matter. I did these nails with the orchids in mind.

Fish Tail Theme


I am posting a bit early for the next theme in #WNAC because I want to save Friday's post for my Foiled Shadow Friday. The new theme is fish tail which I am not the biggest fan of. I have only done this design a few times because it's just not my usual style of nail art. This is the first time I did it using striping tape and I have to say I like it better that way.
Two coats of Orly french white as my base color, striping tape is from Amazon, all the colors are from China Glaze, the orange is home sweet house music, the pink is glow with the flow, and the purple is plur-ple, for top coat this time I used IMN out the door. 



I hope you all have a wonderful day!
