Cloud Mani or Step Mani

Once again I blame the wine...okay maybe I'm a little tiny bit to blame

I tried to re-create my own version of the "Cloud Mani" seen over at  Nailside, but mine looks more like steps. I'm not really happy with how it turned out but practise makes perfect. Since I believe and nail art is all about trial and error, here we go!




I used Strawberry Margarita as my base
I apologise in advance for the state of my cuticles! My dishwasher broke and I'm washing everything by hand until the new one comes. Maybe I'll switch to paper plates until then....




I then used Fly to create the cloud/step affect.





For the third layer, I used Alpine Snow then topped everything off with a clear top coat and voila.

  3. I just tried my first nailside cloud mani the other day! Mine wasn't perfect either but it was still a lot of fun to do! So I will be practicing too, but I don't think this is a fail, it's still really cool looking and the colors look great together!
