Tissue Paper inspired nails

I love how pretty the tissue boxes have become recently.  I took inspiration for my nails from one box in particular.  I started with OPI Alpine Snow and then used a cosmetic sponge to apply both Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Mellow Yellow 360 and Sun Kissed 150.  These two combined formed the base of my design.  After it dried I used my acrylic paint to make my design in red over top of the polish leaving the original colour on my nail where I want the picture to pop out.  I started with my pinkie and tried to duplicate the designs on the tissue box but soon realized I really had the ability to paint whatever I wanted and by the thumb I had a beautiful sunset design going.  I did a yin yang on my dominant hand and then wussed out and used my stampers for the rest of the designs, but they still turned out great.
