Monkey See Monkey Do Monday - Week 3 - Blue Pastel Dots

Hi Goddesses  






Behold, for there was a miracle in England today, and the Lord did bringeth the sunshine !!!  So today, you get garden backdrops, a little bit of shadow, but LOTS of natural light - wooo hoooo !!




So, to the mani, and if I'm honest, I ran out of time this week.  I had a bit of a blogging log jam over the weekend, so this week's one is a bit fly, but valid nonetheless.




MSMD is about what inspires you.  Often, that is other people's nails.  This week, it's some wrapping paper we had in the office for our Birthday Club - look, isn't it pretty ?





I fell in love with it when I saw it, and it is both sad AND true that my 2nd thought was, "I could so do that pattern on my nails".  So, lol, I did.



This is a base of 2 coats of Models Own Beth's Blue, one of my favourite blues, dotted with large white dots, and then filled with smaller dots of  -





* OPI Sparrow Me The Drama
* Cult Nails Manipulative
* Sally Hansen Delphinium
* Barielle Myrza's Meadow
* CG Lemon Fizz



I am a little annoyed that the dots on my left hand are wonkier, but I guess that's to be expected, right ?  Also, there's a spot on my right index finger that I had to redo 3 times.  3 !!  Every time I plopped a dot of Sparrow Me The Drama on it, I knocked it on something - very annoying!






But look, can you even TELL where the paper ends and my hand begins ?  Lol.




This is super easy, and really pretty.  It was a surprise winner in the office today - everyone seemed to really like it, which was nice.  I'm a bit pastelled out at the moment, but this is a nice change to all the heavy glitter I'm about to bring your way.  Oh yeah :)



Enjoy xx :)
