I'm still going with both the crazy 31DC2014 and the lovely Endless Summer Nail Challenge and today's nail art had to balance both.
So, for Blue Nails and Nautical Nails, I came up with:
Abstract Seaweed! :D
I started by using some black acrylic paint and a thin detail brush to draw in the seaweeds the way I wanted them to: a whole bunch of them, softly swaying to the sea's motion.
I've used both a mixture of different blue nail polishes and different acrylic paints, which I mixed and matched to achieve different bue shades.
Last minute, I got even more inspired and added a couple of dark blue glitter to some pieces and a really bright almost neon like lime green to others and that's what really made these pop!
I love how kind of effortless they were and what a great impression they made on everyone today.
Yep, I can't deny it's been a good week for me nail art wise ;)
How do you think these fit the themes in both challenges? Am I in way over my head or did I managed to pull it off? :)
Wishing you the most fantastic Friday evening you can get.
Hugs & Kissies,

Really glad you got the last minute inspiration to add glitter, because I think it's the star of this whole look! The colors are beautiful and they work together so well, in a perfect harmony. Going strong on 31DC2014!!!
