September Nail Art Challenge: Stamping Month! Day 6: Travel

Introduction:

Today stamping challenge is "travel". As soon as I saw it in the list, I knew what i'm going to do. I felt in love with sunset/sunrise gradient nail arts quite some time ago (my first one was with butterflies), but I really wanted to create something tropical with palm trees. I just had to by stamping plates for this (and luckily I got them right before these challenge). And three of my new Crows Toes polishes looked ideal for creating tender sunrise gradient. The only thing which I did not have was stamping image of the boat, but I fixed this problem. Honestly I'm in love with results and I even made light box to take better images. I hope you'll enjoy it as well.

September Nail Art Challenge: Stamping Month! Day 2: Lace

Introduction:

Doing different stamping everyday is fun, but full change of mani is too demanding. So i decided to cheat little bit and used my right hand with the same Toxic Buttercup background for second day lace stamping ;)

Results:


 Figure 1. All five nails stamped with one lace pattern, but I tried to shift pattern for each finger to make it more interesting.

September Nail Art Challenge: Stamping Month! Day 1: Flowers

Introduction:

This month I decided to participate in the nail art challenge proposed by Tina, which is all about various stamping themes. Also from now on I will start to make real, full size posts in this blog describing in more details my nail art. And just to add personal touch each post will be shaped in the style of scientific paper including following sections: Introduction, Results, Materials and Methods, Discussion and References :) Hope it's not too nerdy... 

 Since it's just the beginning for me, I would really appreciate your comments and suggestions for blog improvement. 

Results:
