Happy Monday, and Happy July!!
These new nail art designs of mine are making me feel all summery!! I've named them Ombré Aztec (the pink-yellow-green tie dye effect + the black tribal print over the top).
To achieve the fading ombré effect I used a small piece of clean sponge. I dabbed the nail polish onto the sponge in the order I wanted, letting the colours touch and blend. Then carefully I pressed the colour combo sponge over the nails!
I went for all Barry M nail polishes:
Fuchsia pink
Lemon ice cream yellow
NEW Gelly Hi Shine in Key Lime green
And I used the fab Black Barry M nail art pen.
Wait a couple of minutes for them to dry slightly and then use a cotton bud and nail varnish to clean up the excess nail varnish that got on the skin around your nails.
Finally, using a black nail art pen, carefully draw your Aztec prints. I used a swirl, a few dots, a triangle shape and a zig zag on each nail to create this effect.
Try them! They're super summery. Don't forget to use a clear base & top coat to keep them on for longer. Mine a still chip free as I type!!

Flowers.A.S.nails
A bit of a late post this evening but better late than never hey :)
These are a bit crazy colourful! But fun, I think. We have a Sunflower, Rose, Pansy, Lily and a Poppy.
I got this idea from my friend - who has two flowers names in her name so insisted I do them on my nails.
I used Rio nail art pens in black, white, red, green, blue, yellow and green for most of this design! They really are worth purchasing, I get so much use out of them!!
Hope you like these summery nails!!
Do you have any flower themed nails you'd like to show us? If you do, send them to cute.as.nails1@gmail.com
We'd <3 to see them!
