40 GREAT NAIL ART IDEAS - Aqua or Turquoise and Roses

Good afternoon, gorgeous people!
This post is, sadly, so delayed, I even considered not posting at all.

But then I figured you're all amazing people, who understand life sometimes gets in the way and decided to move forward with it.

So this one's for another #40gnai prompt and a lovely one at that, too. We all had to do something with aqua or turquoise and I got roses!

Let's take a look at it:

I chose a light, pastel yellow for my base, hoping it wouldn't compromise much the whole idea of having turquoise nails but I realize they do stand out a bit much.

However, since I didn't really know how to get out of that pickle situation and considering everything, I think I managed okay.

You can still see the pretty roses, although not much the white leaves I added to each bouquet.

For the roses, I used Kiko 526 and Barry M Cancun.

I freehanded it all with a nail art brush.

Overall, I just wish you could have been able to see these in real life as the photos don't do it much justice.

These were pretty fabulous to wear all day and they have a lovely Spring feeling to them - I'm hoping the weather takes my hint ;)

Check the ladies' designs on this prompt - I promise you won't be disappointed, everyone kicked ass! - and I'll be seeing you very soon!

EDIT
So  I figured out I didn't much like my design and went for it with making it better. Here's what it looked like after all that:

I figured, if you don't  like something, change it, so I did.

I added some vintage dots to the whole thing and hit myself in the head for not thinking about it in the first place.

I used a dotting tool and Barry M Cancun, which I had previously used only to darken my aqua colour - stupid, I know.

 

I hope you liked the improvement, 'cause I sure do, and remember - it's all up to you to change a design you don't like! :)

Hugs & Kissies,
