Something different today - my very first mani swap with awesome Sumeet from Tales of coffee lacquer and beauty. If you follow her blog (and if not, what are you waiting for?) you know that she does outstanding water marbles and gradients. For this swap we decided to do stamping mani, but I new right away that it will be one of her stampings over gradient, because they are so beautiful. It was hard, we do not have too many similar plates and I love so many of her designs. Finally, when I saw this gorgeous green to orange gradient I could not resist, even though my lotus and leaves are pretty different. But this color combo is divine, it glows on my nails. I love everything about this mani, thank you Summet for this opportunity to swap with you.

ReplyDeleteThanks Myishia. That's exactly why I like mani swaps, you can add subtle changes adapting look for yourself, but core stays the same.
DeleteThank you for mani swapping with me <3 I love how you made this your own, perfection through and through!
ReplyDeleteIt was my pleasure Sumeet :)
DeleteThis gradient is amazing, and I absolutely adore the colours used. What an inspiration to us all from both yourself and Summet. Thank you for sharing.
