Flower Power and tutorial


Hi Ladies
Just thought I'd share with you my tootsies!
Now you must feel priviledged as I never show my toes to anyone! 
But I decided it was time to brave the world and show them off, 
in celebration for this revelation I decided to paint them a nice lilac colour (Barry M Berry I/C to be precise) and top them off with some pinky flowers. 
I learnt this technique from a friend but I don't have to right tools to do as good a job as her, so please bear with me!
Step 1:


paint the nail with Barry M Berry I/C


Step 2:


Dot Pink "splodges" with a dotting tool (or the end of a make up brush) 
onto nail to create base for flower Barry M Raspberry was used for this


Step 3:


Dot lighter pink around the edges of the dots to create the "highlight" effect on the flower and the petals. 
I used Barry M Pale Pink for this


And there you go!


One set of perfectly (nearly) polished feet!
