31DC2013: Day 14 - Flowers

Oh hi there!! Oh flowers, how I love thee and how I fail at painting you well (most of the time). I was inspired by the walls at a Kate Spade part of a department store (I don't know what they're called), I tried to take a sneaky photo, but it wasn't so hot so I looked up the print online. I could only find the design on a pillow case, but that's all I needed!!

I also wanted a textured on smooth thing going on again like on day 6 (except the other way round). The one thing I was really annoyed about was not going with a white base, last minute I thought the beige-y colour could work. But I know white would've looked far better.
But now I'm more ok with, it gives an antiqued wallpaper feel (I think anyway). I stopped following the pattern after a while and just painted flowers. Overall I really like the design, it's quite classy which I can do sometimes. It pretty different from my other challenge days as it's not all brights haha.

Textured polish actually works great for nail art, no difficulties at all and Jinx was super opaque (and sparkly).
The dots don't look too great (but the pictures don't emphasise them) as when I was using my toothpick the polish wouldn't stay on the tip so I'd have to use the side therefore making more oblong shapes if you get me.

Red-y Orange: OPI - Jinx
Wow 2 polishes, that doesn't happen often.

Thanks for reading and I hope you have a fantastic day!! :)
