When Uninspired...

... go for bloggers who know what they're doing ;)

And today I did something I saw at Rina's amazing blog, Simply Rins.

She said she wanted her Broken Lines to look like rain, and since the weather's been playing tricks on us here in Lisbon and it's actualy been raining, I thought I'd give it a go, with my own twist to it :)

She used acrylic paint, but seeing I don't have any, I just stick to my trustworthy nail stripers - yes, they're back! muhahaha ;)

Check it out:

It's how this mani is making me feel today - smiley.

Which considering the weather and a couple other things, is pretty amazing :)

Do you also get happy encouraging feelings from your manis?

I went for a different base colour - like Rina, I also sometimes feel orange doesn't agree with my skin much.

I used Inglot O2M No.665, a really bright mint green, perfect in two effortless layers.

I then took a sponge and dabbed just the tip of my thumb and ring finger with Inglot No.223.

Next: stripers! :)

I did all the 'rain drops' with white first, using Kiss SPA02 White and then went ahead with the rest of the colours, still leaving some white ones, though:

Pink - Golden Rose No.103

Orange - Golden Rose No.102

Blue - Golden Rose No.116

Purple - Golden Rose No.128

Tchanan! Final look! :)

What do you think? Was I able to do Rina's design some justice?

I sure hope so!

Let me know what you think down in the comment section below and keep your fingers crossed with me for some Spring weather! ;)

Hugs & Kissies,

ps. Can you tell I don't know what I'm doing with my blog signature? I'm not happy with it and I might be changing it. I also don't like to see it next to my fingers and/or nails, so today I went and put it in the photo, rather than next to the nail design. I need your opinion!!! ;)
