Back again for another challenge, this time, yellow. I had two different ideas for this one, so I've done both of them.
The first one I wanted to try after seeing it on another blog, however I'm not sure which one, so apologies.
I started by doing a yellow/orange gradient, & then used the nail art pen to draw the outlines.
I'm quite annoyed with these. I had been practising to try and get the flames right,& I was really getting there, but when it came to doing them on nails, they did not go how I wanted, & I ended up cleaning them off not long after taking the photo.
My Brother bought me some 'Fingers' for Christmas, & I have pre-glued nails which I get from the 99p shop. It saves me from have to practice on my own nails & ruining them from nail polish remover.
These were a few of my practice runs, I think they look a lot better than what I ended up with, albeit still not perfect.
My second attempt, was what I originally wanted to play with.Bees! I love Bees. They scare the crap out of me if they manage to get near me. I just don't understand how they work. They should not be able to lift off & hover. After watching The |Bee Movie, I fell in love even more.
Poor Bee, ended up with weird stripes & eyes. I was getting a bit sleepy, so was lazy freehanded the stripes instead of waiting for them to dry & use tape.
I used some rhinestones from the 99p shop for the trail. As you can tell, this took about 5 minutes, but it's still quite eye catching. I have named him Gilbert.
So these are my two attempt for this weeks challenge. I have a few ideas of things I want to play with, so I'm quite excited about that. I'm spending a lot of time applying for any job I can find. It's hard finding something which doesn't need experience though, so wish me luck!
Catch you laters,
