My first ever brush topper

[busybee32]

Hi Guys,
Inspired by the nail that Sam Biddle did for me yesterday at the EZFlow roadshow http://www.salongeek.com/chit-chat/62383-audience-sam-biddle-various-dates.html I have done my first ever brush topper, I dont have colour acyrlic powders yet so handpainted it.
This is my FIRST EVER attempt at doing fantasy work and I am HOOKED!!!
Wow I am impressed with myself and just wanted to share.

Patted out white acrylic into strips and then wrapped them round each other while still soft the messier the strip the more natural looking petal you get, then wrap leaves around and then painted it with acrylic paints.

Ha ha I wish, it certainly had a pungent smell as I was making it, now it doesnt smell of anything, guess I could stick a bit of essential oil on it then yes it would:lol:
