Lounge Chair Flowers – Soul Sista week

 
 
The base color is 2 coats of Essence 03 Lounge Chair Affair, and it’s a tiny bit sheer in 2 coats. I sponged a band with Essence 01 Chilled Orange (both polishes are from the Soul Sista collection). They blend extremely well together – not very noticeable, but definitely creating a nice effect – a simple difference in shade. Then I painted the flowers, first I mixed acrylic colors, a turquoise with a touch of silver for the flower petals, the “strains” in the petals is painted with a leather brown color and the center with yellow and orange. I used a dotting tool for the dots.  Finally I top coated with Seche Vite.
Not my most well painted flowers, but they gave me a lounge chair under the palms vibe :) - you can see more flowers in the top menu!
Grundfarven er Essence 03 Lounge Chair Affair, og den ville være 100% heldækkende, hvis den fik et lag mere. Jeg duppede Essence 01 Chilled Orange (også fra Soul Sista kollektionen) hen over den, og jeg elsker den måde de flyder sammen, det er næsten ikke synligt, men alligevel er der en tydelig nuanceforskel. Derefter malede jeg blomsterne; jeg blandede ført en turkis med en smule sølv til kronbladene, og strengene i dem er malet med en læderbrun, mens midten er malet med gul og orange. Prikkerne er lavet med et dotting tool. Til slut lagde jeg Seche Vite som toplak.
Det er ikke mine flotteste blomster, men designet gav mig tanker om en liggestol under palmer :) - du kan se flere blomster ved at vælge fanebladet i topmenuen...
