Spring brings about the cherry blossoms on the trees so I thought I'd put them on my nails too :)
And I've got a step-by-step guide that you can follow:
Step 1: Base Colour
Always start by applying a base coat (I normally go for a treatment like the original OPI Nail Envy) to protect the nails and prime them ready for colour.
To get an opaque, even colour I used two coats of Impala (a very affordable Brazillian brand) in le rose. Click here for pictures of it on shorter, rounded nails.
Step 2: Draw the trees
For this step, I used the striper brush end of my Inglot Nail Art Enamel in 36 Black to draw the tree branches.
Step 3: Add the little blossoms
Using a dotting tool, I randomly placed little dots on the nails in two shades of pink - OPI Shorts Story & OPI Dim Sum Plum.
Step 4: Glitterrrrr <3

Glitter is a winner. Subtle glitter just adds a touch of sparkle and makes it look even more luxurious! I used touches of to match.
Step 5: Protect your handiwork with a clear top coat
I am loving Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat at the moment and think this is a great one for nail art :)
Beautiful. Hope you like it!
