Spring Nail Art

So, spring is coming along, and the flowers are beginning to grow, which is why I thought of doing a spring inspired design. I chose to accent my nails, rather than do all of them, because I think the design looks weird if its repeated over and over again. I used an emerald green, as it is the color of the year, according to Pantone, but you can choose any color green you like!

What you need:
- toothpick / striper
- dotting tool / hair pins
- white, green and yellow polish ( I used ANNY green racing drag, P2 summer to go!, and Orly white).

This I how you create the design:
1) Apply one or two layers of green nail polish, depending on how opaque your polish is, and let it dry completely!
2) Using a dotting tool, or a hair pin, create two dots on each nail you chose to do the design on, but place the dots further apart.
3) Using a striper, or a tooth pick, drag thin, white lines toward one dot, but don't connect the lines to the dot.
4) Do the same for the other dot.
5) Let the design dry and apply your fav topcoat!

Tips and tricks:
- After applying nail polish, put your hand into cold water for a few seconds, pull them out, and put them into even cooler water for about 30 seconds, this helps the polish dry faster.

Hope you like this design, it was inspired by: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pnO2U_FnNbs. Check out her tutorials! Send me pictures at catchy.bling@gmail.com, if you try out any nail art I post! xoxo, Marethyu
