Summer Fruit Week - Day 3: Strawberries for Pink Wednesday!


Happy Pink Wednesday, Lovelies!  It's day three of summer fruit week.  Hope you are enjoying the manicures so far!  For pink Wednesday I decided to create a strawberry themed manicure! 


I didn't take pix of the steps this time (Sorry!) but here is what I did:
  1. Painted all nails, except one accent nail on each hand in Zoya Portia.
  2. Painted accent nail in Zoya Dana.
  3. On Portia painted nails, add polka dots in Zoya Flora using dotting tool.
  4. On Dana nail, add smaller polka dots in Zoya Pippa using dotting tool.
  5. On Dana nail, add green lines at the base of the nail for the stem.
  6. On Portia nails, add red strawberry shapes using a thin nail art brush.
  7. Add yellow dots and tiny green stems to strawberry shapes.
I like using the ring finger as my accent nail, but as you can see in the pictures, I accidentally made my middle finger the accent on my left hand.  Oops!  lol.   I think I like my other strawberry manicure better than this one.  What do you think?

On Wednesdays we wear pink and polka dots!

Happy Pink Wednesday, lovelies! Thank you so much for all the comments you guys post on my blog!  They really brighten my day! :)  Since on Wednesdays we wear pink, today I decided to play with a very light pink: Sally Hansen Insta Dri Petal Pusher.
Here is a swatch of Petal Pusher.  She is a VERY sheer pink.  I think this was about 4 coats.  I have to say, that I really love the brush on these bottles.  It makes it very easy to stay on the nail and not go on the cuticle. 
On top of the pink I added some black dots.  This stamp is from my big fat plate, but can also be found on Konad M79 plate.  This picture was taken right after I stamped with no top coat and no cleanup (sorry about that). 


Then with a small brush I added the black french tips.  I think it finishes off the manicure nicely.  This was a great professional look for work yesterday!  Inspiration for this manicure came from an image I found on Pinterest  Let me know what you think!  XOXO
