Birthday Mani & Naked Nails

As promised my birthday mani:
Only one pic and it's not a great one. I really wasn't very happy with it. I liked it better before the scrolls lol. But everything is a learning experience, and I learned that I can do scrolls with a toothpick. Yes, seriously a toothpick! I really love how some scrolls look and I wanted to try it. It's not too hard actually lol. Anyhow evolution of this mani:
2 coats of Sally Hansen Lavender Envy:
And 2 coats of Finger Paints Well-Cultured Pearl:
Honestly I should have left it alone at the point but I wanted to stamp little gold crowns using Ulta's High Roller but it didn't show up very well at all. So I added flowers using a homemade dotting tool and when that still looked a little too plain I did the scrolls. I threw some Pure Ice Busted on before the flowers and scrolls as well. 
And naked nails before the mani
I'm slowly trying to get them all shaped square which is slightly more difficult on my right hand since I'm always breaking my thumb nail and its pretty round lol. As always thanks for stopping by :)

  1. The great thing is as you say: everything is a learning experience. I think your first take on scrolls came out pretty well :)
