Well Done

thankyou hun!!!!

I love the daffodil really cute how did you do it?

hi thanks marian
i wasn't too sure on the daf myself-think it could've done with being a bit smaller-will try that next time i get bored...
i did it with acrylic paints
started off with 3 petals in yellow then added a touch of white to the yellow to do another 3 petals behind, then painted the centre in orange then blended in the centre of the orange blob to break it up,then added 4 white blobs in the middle for the polleny bits(sorry can't think of the technical name)then added a stem and some leaves and then add shading and highlights to the whole thing. then sealed with super shiny,think i got a bit carried away and took the pics before super shiny tho?...
glad u like it

thanks for sharing your daffie "how to" lol. I am gonna give it a go now but doubt it will look half as good! Awe well worth a try!

i like the custom blend color, but i see what you mean, it would be tweaked a little. but what i really wanted to comment on was the glitter moons, I LOVE THAT! i'm SO gonna borrow that one

I'm not a gel girl, but I hope my critique still works :P

Shape-4 (Very natural looking, good for your nail bed and finger shape.)
Sidewalls and edges-4 (Look flush and smooth, maybe just a BIT more in the cuticle area, but not too much.)
Apex Placement-3 (A bit inconsistent, some are good while others are too forward or too far back.)
Smile Line-4 (Very gentle smile, looks very natural and matches the free edge well.)
Use of Color-4 (I quite like the color of this blend. Not sure how you could improve it, it matches perfectly. I'm just not sure about the glitter moons :P Maybe just not my thing. Neat idea, I'd do it with a natural color myself, but again, I don't do gel, so I don't know how possible that is.)
Design-3 (The flower is very cute, very Springy. I love daffodils! I paint them a lot this time of year.)

Overall, very good, natural looking nails. The only thing I'd do is thin the free edge a bit. It might just be because it's gel, but I think the white looks to be thicker than the pink. A couple of swipes of a file would straight that right out.

Great job,
Jess
