Lucy in the Sky...


Today's Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge is your favorite Spring purple or peach.  I'm going to start by apologizing for the terrible state of my cuticle. Two sets of wraps and acrylics plus numerous other procedures in nail school have made a total mess of them.  :/  Even Photoshop can't help this hot mess.  BUT...I'm still trying to keep up with the challenges.  I used my new OPI Dutch Ya Just Love OPI for the base on this one and then topped it with some China Glaze Sweet Hook and then topped that with Barry M Silver Foil.  I love this cloud-like effect and was excited to try it out although I think it could use some tweaking before I do it again.  I struggled a bit with the color choices and the Barry M was a little streaky.  But it still came out rather nice!! I hope you all enjoy and I promise I'm giving my cuticles some EXTRA love for the next pics!! :)
