Pick 'N' Mix Challenge: Yellow/Wild Animal

Monday, 10 November 2014

Hello folks!
I missed the last couple of prompts with being ill, so am very happy to be back in the challenge! I combined looks again and as soon as I saw the prompt, I knew what I wanted to do... Flamingos!!! I've always had a thing for these pink, leggy birds (lol) and when we discovered them living wild near our villa in Spain, I was enchanted! You can see more about that in another recent flamingo post HERE. I also knew that I wanted the colours to bring some summer back into my life, the weather is dismal here in London, so bright was the only way to go!

I used two coats of white, followed by two of yellow for the base. I left it to dry for a good thirty minutes before stamping the flamingos in a hot pink and the fronds in a bright green. I then topcoated.

Bring me a cocktail! This mani gave me the summer feeling I was longing for. I love the tropical stamping plates from MoYou London, think I'll be doing a third flamingo mani before long!
