Robin Moses Pink Flowers

The Robin Moses design I wanted to do I seem to have lost and can not find again.  Trying to wade through that woman's flower folder is like trying to find... well you get the idea.  So I found this other design instead here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfeVx5fnxo0&list=PL16BAB047971B9CC9&index=21
I used Royal Blush Flush NL V08 by OPI to start off this design and then my black 59701 Quo by Orly striping brush to put on the lattice and finally my favourite dotting tool (a bobby pin) to dot on the pink acrylic paint and finally the bright silver from Sally Hansen Xtreme wear 4860-13 Celeb City (I really love this sparkly silver!)

Black and Silver stripes

I began with a base of Sally Hansen 850 Pumping Iron and then used my Black 59701 and Platinum Glitter 59703 striping brushes from Quo by Orly to add the stripes.  I created all the black lines first then then went in between them with silver.  A very simple design but looks very feral in a glittery sort of way :-)

Striping Tape

So I got some striping tape from a nail art course I took at Gen Con (convention in Indianapolis, Indiana hosted by https://www.facebook.com/glitterfactorybloomington) and finally got around to using it. Bright/fluorescent colours look best against a black overcoat, the metallic did okay as well.  I'm most happy with my right pinky and my left middle finger, they used the dollar store colours I bought after my dad took ill.
Here are pictures of the before, so you know what they looked like before the striping tape and to show how much work went into these ;-)

Here are the pictures for after with the stripers set and the black polish put over the stripes so only the colour underneath shows through.

Lastly since these took a stupid amount of polishes to complete I just took pictures of what I had out of my collection.  The last picture shows the striping tape and a polish that matches really well.  I'm sure I'll have something done with these two items at a later date.
