There are people meant to live in the city and then there are people meant to live in the countryside. My Mom's the latter :)
And on today's challenge, as we were meant to present a manicure with the perfect gift for Mom, I present you something very dear to mine and something she's been talking about a lot lately: living in the countryside.
Of course, for that, she'll need a nice beautiful house :D
This is for you, Mumsi!<3
I started off with two coats of Prestige Light Denim (58) on all nails.
I then sponged Sally Hansen Green with Envy on the tips of all the nails, except for the ring finger. The dots are supposed to be tiny flowers but I didn't really succeed in giving that illusion.

On the tip of the ring finger I applied instead one coat of Kiko Rock Top 612, to make a granite like look, something Mom loves! :)
The roof was made with Prestige NLP - 106 Gerbera.

I then added a little white chimney with, of course, some cooking smoke. And the sun to the left was done using Perfect Lady No.31.
The thumb, which I am actually quite proud of, has a tree under which Mom can just relax and enjoy the calm and peacefulness of living in the countryside :)
Tree trunk done with Purple Professional No.45 and tree crown made by sponging Inglot 985.
So, what do you think? Good enough for Mom? ;)
I sure hope she likes it and you too - let me know by leaving me a comment, I do love reading your words :D
Have a splendid Monday all of you lovelies!
