31DC2013: Day 6 Violet

Press Sample Purchased by Me

Morning friends!

We are here on Day 6 of the challenge and today's theme is Violet. I don't know about you, but to me violet means purple. That's how I interpreted it anyway! I was actually struggling thinking of something creative to do for this prompt, but eventually ended up just googling purple patterns and came up with these!

Here is the awesome image that inspired these nails,

I'm actually really pleased with how these turned out! There really isn't much explaining to do, I started out with 3 coats of China Glaze Creative Fantasy and then went at it with my teeny tiny cut down nail art brush and Born Pretty Store Sweet Color #009 and freehanded the floralesque pattern.

I started on my thumb and I had originally tried to get more of the image onto my nail and add a bit more free purple space. However when I started I liked the look of something over my whole nail slash my nails aren't quite big enough! :P

I'm not sure how violet these are, but I really like the teal and purple combination and the floral/bubbly print is pretty fun! What do you think of these?
