Here comes another edition of Polish Days! And this time, it's #PolishOlympics!!
Check out my debut, if you wanna know more about it!! :-)
Once again, Hannah (the lady behind Polly Polish) is doing an amazing job organizing this polish addicts round-up!
If you'd like to take part in the next Polish Days, check out how it works!
Onto the nails:
It all started with a blank canvas: Kate (Julep). One streaky coat, covered by a generous second coat.
The Olympic Rings were composed with dotting tools.
Jet Set To Paris (L'Oréal), Amarelo Pop Art (Colorama), Black Is Back (Essence), High Line Green (New York Color), Fire (Revlon) were used for the larger colourful dots.
Smaller dots with Kate on top gave the illusion of rings.
The flags are the story of my life: born in the US, raised in Brazil, living in Canada.
The red stripes were free-handed with the aid of long striping brush, using Big Apple Red Creme (New York Color).
Azul Biônico (Colorama) is responsible for the blue sky, and Kate sealed the deal with the stars.
For Brazil, the canvas was High Line Green (NYC), free handed over by Lexington Yellow (New York Color) and Azul Biônico (Colorama).
A hole punch through a film of Big Apple Red Creme (NYC) is responsible for the perfect Maple Leaf. Applying the tiny leaf is somewhat of a challenge, and a top coat is my best friend during the process! ;-)
Some themed glitter gave the sparkle this mani needed to shine. What, you don't remember the glitter? No problem, here's another pic! :-p
On my pinky, you can see America The Beautiful (Julep). Didn't pick up any stars, though. On the thumb, O Canada! (Julep). A (Canadian) friend said it reminded her of Christmas, and it made her happy! ;-)
I had so much fun with these Olympic Nails! A little bit was added each day, and by the end of the week I had the complete set.
Thanks again Hannah for organizing this. And thanks to all the ladies who are also taking part on #PolishOlympics! It wouldn't be a Polish Day without each and every one of us! :-)
Make sure you check 'em out!
Make sure you check 'em out!
Can't wait for the next Polish Day!

ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole!!
DeleteI'd experimented for Canada Day, but haven't published any pictures from that mani.
For some reason all of my Canadian flags turn into epic failures, I had to use a stencil for mine!
