Blossoms!

It is finally Spring and blossoms are almost in full bloom, but they won't be here forever so why not capture the moment on your finger tips.

What you will need:
Dotting tools

Colors:
Sky - light greenish/blue - used Essie - Mint Candy Apple
Twig color - brown - used OPI - Wooden Shoe Like to Know
Blossom color - light pink - used SpaRitual - Reveal Yourself
Blossom center - dark pink - used OPI - That's Hot! Pink

Step One:
Paint the base color. Then angling the nail polish brush of the brown or using a fine paint brush randomly do lines on the nail to make them look like twigs.


Step Two:
Using a somewhat small dotting tool dip into the light pink and make a ring of 5 dots to create a blossom ensuring to leave a hole in the middle like a donut. To make semi bloomed blossoms dot 3 dots together to create a triangle shape. Then sporadically dot single dots to resemble blossom buds.

Step Three:
Using the same sized dotting tool dip into the dark pink and fill in the 5 dotted donut holes and a dot in the center of the 3 dotted triangle.


Viola!!!! Easy spring blossom nails for the win!
