~Emmsybabes~ showed me how to do flowers and glitter fades today so here's my first attempt at home without supervision.

Sorry, Emma, I just couldn't resist the green - I'll maybe do the blue & peach next time :lol:

The photo doesn't do the colour justice imo as it's very subtle in real life and quite delicate looking.

Cheers,
Hazel :hug:

They look very nice!
 
See, your fade has faded...and your petals are petaly lol..nothing to worry about !
I knew it would be much easier for you when you were at home in your own world :lol:

I will back you up on the fact that that colour is much more subtle in real life, and it does suit your skin tone...

Lovely hun....:hug:

How did you find doing them ?

I found it tricky doing a thin layer of clear first, then the glitter fade, then another thin layer of clear. The fade itself was quite easy but trying to do the layers thin enough without the whole nail being bulky is a new skill to learn. Maybe it would be easier with a tip & overlay rather than sculpting like these - but I still prefer the look & feel of sculpts :) The flower petals were a lot easier, especially as I had one of yours for reference.
