Spotted neon flowers

The base color is China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise – a gorgeous cold turquoise/green neon. The spotted flowers I painted with acrylic colors and the top coat is Seche Vite.
I wasn’t too happy about this mani, after I finished it reminded me a little of the flower that stinks like a rotting carcass in latin Stapelia variegata or Stapelia lepida – fortunately my nails didn’t smell like that LOL
Grundfarven er China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise – en smuk kold turkis/grøn neon. De plettede blomster malede med akrylfarve og toplakken er Seche Vite.
Jeg var ikke så vild med resultatet, måske mest fordi det pludselig mindede mig om Ordensstjerne eller ådselsblomst (latin Stapelia variegata eller Stapelia lepida), der stinker som et ådsel – det gjorde mine negle nu heldigvis ikke ;)

  1. lol, it does kinda reminds me of that bad smelling flower, i'm sure your nails, hands... or any part of your body doesn't smells so bad ;-D
    but at first sight it reminded me on tiger lilies, which i love so much :-D
    overall, my association is much better smelling and so much better looking than yours ;-D

  21. China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise is amazing :-)
    My first association was that you draw a carnivorous plant :-) you know they look beautiful so they could attract insects and catch them! :-) Well, with this I wanted to tell that your flowers look awesome! :-)
