Hey! I'm back today with the second Glam Nails Challenge prompt for this month which is butterfly's. I have a butterfly stamping plate and a whole host of great butterfly wing colours so knew what to do with this one! The two Starrily base colours are new and were gifts from my partner so I couldn't wait to try them out. The colours used are listed below the pictures as usual.
After starting with my base colours and using the blue as an accent for the thumb and ring finger, I created decals on my Uber Mat, you can see how here. In the meantime I used black stamping polish to apply the butterfly and butterfly wing images to my thumb, ring finger and little fingernails (all images from Mo You London's Kitty 12 stamping plate). I love seeing the gorgeous Starrily colour shining through! For the decals I did have a slight issue with my middle finger in that I stuck it on the wrong way round! Having done this so many times I'm not sure how I managed that to be honest! It makes it harder to stick down and not look as neat. I'm hoping it's the kind of thing only I'd notice unless I mention it, though it's not like many people are seeing my nails at the moment anyway!
In conclusion - I adore these base colours, especially the blue accent, they are perfect for Spring, super shimmery and really pretty. I think they make a great base for butterfly nails. The look could have been a little neater if I hadn't messed up the middle finger but overall I'm pleased with it!
