So this week is 'O' in the ABC Challenge and I knew what I wanted to do straight away-something I saw a while ago and knew I would recreate. Before I even started my own blog I found these amazing owl nails by The Little Canvas and loved them. I finally got around to doing them myself!
Polishes used: Essie-Mojito Madness, Barry M-Lychee (finally I own this beauty!), Collection 2000-Look At Me! and Rimmel-Tangy Tangerine. Details were added with my new Barry M Nail Art Pen (I LOVE being able to spend my hard earned Boots points on awesome things!) which worked like a dream.
Without further ado then (I took lots of pictures because I love them so much!):

So there we have it! I think next time I do these (there will be a next time!!!) I'll put a neutral base on over my nails first, just because the green makes my natural nail colour look a bit weird and purple (see my thumb on the first pic). I really love them though! They're making me really happy =)
Hope you like them as much as I do!

Great job on your nail art! Super cute mani, I don't blame you for not wanting to take it off.
ReplyDeleteThank you =) ha, I love em!
DeleteVery nice owl indeed!! The green with white polka dots is perfect!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot =) It's actually the same nudey colour as their bellies but my camera wasn't playing properly lol

DeleteHi Jenni!! Welcome to the ABC challenge! (I know I''m a lil late I had been MIA lately!) I loved your owls! I've been wanting to do some for so long and I don't know why I haven't.
ReplyDeleteI also liked a lot the color combo you used. I'm loving that Lychee...
Thank you so much! You should definitely do them, they're super easy ans really adorable!
DeleteLychee's lovely isn't it? I knew I had to get it once I saw it cropping up in other people's blogs. I've got so many green polishes and none of them look nice together so I thought it was about time I invested in some lol
Aww I love it too! Well done, I love the colours you used :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'm glad so many people like it =)
DeleteMojito Madness is probably my favorite green of all time, and it looks great on you. The owl is freaking adorable too!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's my favourite green too...for now!
DeleteSo super cute! That green is so nice and I almost never say that about green!! I hope you shared this with TLC, she'll love it!!
ReplyDeleteTLC?
DeleteThanks =) It's my fave green (and I have a LOT of green polishes, it's my fave colour!)
See, now, THIS is how you do owls! These are adorable and just the right amount of detail. And the colors look great together as well. I'm taking pointers from you, girlie, next time I decide to try owls :)
ReplyDeleteThanks very much! =) I can't really take credit though, I copied what The Little Canvas did for the most part. Glad you like them though!
DeleteAwwwwwww!!!!!!! This mani is so pretty!!!!!! I love the tiny owl and the colours you used!
