Leopard Recreation!

Hello everyone!

So today's blog post is my recreation of a design by Amber Armstrong - you can find her on Instagram: @armstrongnails. Her nail designs are so good! 

This one is a leopard print design with the colours black, pink and gold, incorporated into it. 

I'm not usually a fan of gold, but when it's with pink, I love it. 

The colours I have used here are Black Magic and Bubblegum by models own, and Penny Talk by Essie. 

Leopard/cheetah print, is my favourite animal print; mostly because I've not tried any others!! 

Here is a closer photo of the leopard print. This colour combination is just gorgeous! 

Thank you to you for looking at my blog. I'm surprised at myself for actually keeping this up! I'm quite enjoying it because it gives me a reason to do my nails more often even if nobody is reading this. Feel free to share my blog, but please give credit to any photos of my nails that you use, unless they aren't my design. 

Watch out for another post during the week!

Dotty New Year!

Happy New Year! 

I hope you all had a fabulous NYE :-) 

I can't believe it's 2014! Time just seems to fly by so very fast. My 2013 was alright, nothing majorly important or exciting happened. This year, however, is hopefully going to be great! 

On to the nails. 

I was running out of nail art ideas, but then I remembered a nail art book that I have. Flicking through it, I found a certain dotty nail art design by Christina Rinaldi, and I did mine inspired by hers! 

I thought it was something a bit different so here is what I did! 

I am loving purple colours at the moment, I just think they always look nice. The one I used here is by Seventeen, but there is no specific name for it. It came in the "Nail Clash Complete Collection" by Seventeen. The white I used is a Rio professional nail art pen! 

This was fairly quick and simple to do. If ever you want a tutorial on how I do any of my nail designs, don't hesitate to ask! 

This is my thumb feature nail close up. I'm so glad I got the purple bit in a straight line! 

Also, I rarely push back my cuticles anymore, it may be because I use Burt's Bees lemon butter cuticles cream; it's so good! 

Finally, a close up of my other finger! 

I hope you liked this design which was an inspired one. 

Enjoy the first few days of the New Year and start as you mean to go on :-) 

I'll be back with another post in a couple of days - as usual! 

Amy :-)
