Mountain Nail art

Hello my lovelies! 
The wether has been so bleugh here! 
yesterday we had our father in law round and he is an artist so as you can imagine we were sat talking and painting for a while lol! 

So this is what we came up with..... 

Marcus *father in law* gave me some tips and painted some things for me to copy. 
I actually found this okay to do, not too hard! 






Okay so we have mountains,birds, a kite and a hot air balloon. 

I used Essie's Butler Please and Avenue Maintain and a little BarryM at the bottom of the gradient. 

The rest is acrylic paints. 

So what do you think? I think the gradient could have been better but its all good practice!

Hot Air Balloon Nail Art


I used the decal method for these hot air balloons. 

If you are not aware of the decal method there is a good video by Nailstampfanatic, explaining the process which you can find 

I used acrylic paint to do the clouds and added shadows in a slightly grey colour. Oooh get me being all artsy LOL!

Products Used 
China Glaze Electric Beat
Acrylic Paint
Konad Black 
Cheeky European Romance Jumbo Plate.
Seche Vite 

I really like this mani, simple but pretty. 
This type of decal method is also really easy to do once you get the hang of it.
