The Digit-al Dozen does Tropical: Flowers

Good Morning lovelies! It is Day 5 of the Digital Dozen Tropical week. The Digital Dozen is a small group of highly skilled bloggers and nail artists who do 5 themed manis each month. Despite this being the last mani I’m showing it was actually the first mani I did. I like to save my favorites for last. Let’s take a look…

When going through my stamping plates this tropical flowers image from Born Pretty BPL-024 definitely felt the most tropical to me. I knew immediately that a reverse stamping mani was the way to go. I picked up the image in black on my stamper and colored it in using 5 bright shades from my Esmaltes de Kelly one coat creme stamping polishes. 

While my reverse stamping images were drying I applied a single coat of nail foil glue over a black base already painted on my nails. I stamped the finished images in place and cleaning up around the edges. On the remaining two nails I stamped an image from the Bundle Monster Polynesia plate, it has a very tribal/tropical feel to it.
