Flowers...Kinda

Hey gals! My second post of the day :) I did some nail art that was inspired by the cherry blossom/arizona green tea nail art pictures that have been popping up everywhere. Now, it didn't come out perfect or how I planned but I still liked them enough to post pictures of them. They look like an abstract representation of flowers to me... is it just me? Do these look weird to you too? Also, my old camera does NOT do a very good job with this whole focusing/stabilizing business so the pics are kinda blurry and annoying. Here it goes:





Sorry about the bad pictures. I have a steadier hand with a brush than with a camera! Anyways, this was two coats of Essie Mint Candy Apple and the design was made with black and hot pink Art Deco polishes, and OPI Mod About You & Japanese Rose Garden. OH! I didn't use Poshe today, but an old favorite- CND Super Shiney. Let me just say that this top coat ROCKS MY SOCKS. I just wish it were a fast dry, as I've become spoiled by Poshe and Seche Vite. But drying drops help with the drying issue. Even my Solar Oil helps it dry quicker. This topcoat is often overlooked but it really is awesome. The shine is better than Seche Vite AND there's NO shrinkage, since it's not a quick-dry topcoat. It is LOVE <3

Anywhos, I'd love if you guys left feedback on this mani :) things I should have done, etc. I think I should have made the flowers a little bigger. Anyone agree? Any feedback is welcome. Thanks for reading, happy polishing!
