Love is in the Air, #3 - Filigree

Moving away from crudely-formed aliens, and on to filigree fineness. I've always liked the baby blue & brown color combination, and I think they work beautifully with just a touch of gold.

I think this might be my favorite design to date.

Love is in the Air, #2

Cute little creatures like bunnies and kittens get all the attention, but monsters need love, too!

Pinks & Pastels seem a bit too cutesy for monsters, though. So we'll celebrate their monstrous love with purples, greens, and deep blood red instead.

Love is in the Air

... Either it's an early celebration of love, or I'm just dying for chocolate. Either way, this Valentine's design in pinks was a cute, fun change of pace.

Easy as pie to create, too... just put a blob of polish on your surface of choice, and grab a toothpick.

A pair of dots side-by-side give you the rounded top of a heart, then just drag the tip of your toothpick down through the polish to make the pointy base.

From there, your options are almost endless. One single heart on the corner of a pinky? One great big lace-edged expression of love? Or even just a montage of little guys in all the shades of pink vying for center stage. I'm going to try and get at least three Valentine's-themed manicures posted in time to provide ideas for your perfect holiday look :)
