NAILS Magazine 31DC - Mint (Is it summer yet?)

Hello everyone! I'm back again and we're almost at the end of the NAILS Magazine March challenge. Today's theme is "Mint". There were lots of options open for this one, but he furst thing that pops into my head is Mint Choc Chip ice cream and I stopped thinking right about then :)

I started by painting a base of Sinful Colors Glass Pink and then painted across the lower half of each nail with Color Club Earthy Angel. Next I added some fine criss cross detail using Models Own Nude Beige with a fine detail brush and the cone was done. For the ice cream itself, I used Barry M Greenberry (I used the brush straight from the bottle to add it) and added irregular chocolate chips with Color Club Rebel Spirit before finishing with Seche Vite.

Something cute and fun for Friday! The madness of the Easter holiday starts here at midday - Scarlett has over three weeks off so I will be balancing nails with entertaining housefuls of 7 and 8 year olds who want their nails painted! They may even get their own post if I'm running short! In other news I'm looking into doing a course that will allow me to teach nail art/colour theory etc - so exciting! But more about that another day :)

We're in for a lovely warm weekend here in London so maybe I will actually get to eat an ice cream instead of looking longingly at these nails!!!
