I tried a new technique last night that I have watched be done on YouTube, this is the video that I used as my guidance... YouTube Video Vintage Flowers There are a lot of videos that require paint or a brush, I used used some good ole' nail polish and my thinest dotting tool.
Vintage victorian rose flower nail art is definitely the way forward! I am really looking forward to practicing this technique again in the future and trying out different colours, I think a baby blue pastel base coat would look lovely as used in the demo video on YouTube.
Here is my attempt at re-creating this fabulous design, what do you think? :0)
I know I have got a bit of a way to go with shading the leaves etc, I only had one green to hand! I also think I should have used a toothpick like the demo video as I used a dotting tool but I dont think the tip was still thin enough.
I am going to leave you with a couple more pics of my design, I would love to read your feedback and thoughts below. Have you tried this technique before? I would love to read your blogs and see your pics of this.
