30 Days of Colour: Stamping inspired by baby clothes "Happy octopus" with Lakodom and Moyou London Sailor 08

Introduction

This nail art was inspired by cute baby clothes of my 8 month old son Andy. I though it's gonna be fairly simple to do, but I was wrong. Main problem was that I decided to make it on my right hand, so I had to align stripes with non-dominant left hand. Another problem was to place decal of small octopus, which I had to enhance using hand drawing on the stamper. As a solution for ring finger I made double decal with stripes and octopus , that too I misplaced first time. After finishing and taking some glossy pictures it was obvious that matte look will be better, that's why I decided to make this look my belated entry for 30 Days of Colour matte/stamping. And finally, base color is Lakodom, and I really admire collages made by Polina, so I decided to show my inspiration for these nails with "Lakodom style" collage.

Picture polish LakoDom and MoYou London Suki 01 - "Blooming sakura"

Introduction

This nail art was done long time ago, as soon as I received first MoYou London plates,  a generous gift from my sister. But only now I found time to make a proper post with multiple pictures. The timing is also perfect, because spring is in the air and these nails with "Blooming sakura" highlight freshness and tenderness of delicate spring flowers.  One day I hope to travel to Japan and see blooming sakura in person. Till then I'm happy to recreate this beauty on my nails with the help of gorgeous MoYou plates and wonderful LakoDom by Picture Polish.

Winter nail art challenge: Santa/Elf/Reindeer

Introduction:

Today' s theme was Santa/Elf/Reindeer and I chose to make free had reindeer after I saw super cute decals on Etsy (link at the end of my post). Usually I create nail art one day ahead, but yesterday I was too busy making turkey. I was a bit worried, that there will be not enough time to create this look, however it turned out to be really easy to make. Little Christmas tree on my pinky I made without any practice, which is not my usual approach :) I hope you like my reindeer nicely decorated for Christmas.
