40 great nail art ideas: Pastel neon gradient with animal print stamping "Sping zepard"

Introduction

Good day darlings. This week we were doing pastel designs for 40 great nail art ideas challenge and my prompt was "Leopard print". Recently I saw gorgeous many created by Clairestelle8 where she is turning neon polish into pastels and that's exactly what I did here. Basically, you have to add layer of white polish on your sponge after you applied neons (short video tutorial will be on my IG). Also i was inspired my animal print image from MoYou London Explorer 23 which combines both leopard and zebra print. So I decided to recreate it, but with different plates because I wanted more delicate image on my small nails. Given that I had to make it on my Cinderella right hand (two nails are broken on my left hand..) clear stamper from Born pretty store turned out to be very handy. I'm not a huge fan of animal print, but this mani turned out fantastic. Too bad on my pictures you can not see very well delicate holo sparkle from Djinn, but it looks marvelous in real life. Oh yeah, I call this mani "Spring zepard", let me know what do you think about it.

30 Days of Сolour: Lilypad lacquer Where oceans meet and stamping nail art "Lizard skin"

Introduction

My third entry for May 30 days of Colour is not a green gradient, but green duchrome Where oceans meet from Lilypad lacquer with Lizard skin stamping. I did this stamping as a part of our  Co-op technical challenge (stamping image placement without decals). Since I was stamping with non dominant left hand and my nails were just long enough for Lizards it was quite challenging to achieve good placement. My trick was to squish nail into my Creative shop stamper, rather than placing stamper on top of the nail and it worked really well. I have to admit that one of the nails I had to re-stamp, because first attempt was unsuccessful, luckily Mundo de Unas polish is easy to remove using sticky tape :) What are your tricks for perfect placement of stamping image?
