I decided to add some nail art to Illamasqua Load, but I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do. I thought about doing some rainy day nails, but I did some last year. The art on last year's design could be improved, but I still wanted to do something more original. I decided to head over to my Inspiration board on Pinterest. There, I save things that I can use as inspiration for manis. A lot of the pins are patterns, but I also have some pictures.
I saw this picture and knew it would be perfect! It would great with Load as a background, plus it had the rainy day idea.
I really love the way this turned out! I do wish the shape of the birds was a teeny bit better, but I am my own worst critic!
I think I love the cloud on here the best. I love that little heart on it <3
Colors used were Illamasqua Load for the base, Nina Ultra Pro Ink-ling for the body of the birdies, Zoya Dove for the other grey details, Wet n Wild French White Creme, and OPI Chop-Sticking to My Story for the perfect orange.
Here's a close-up of the birdies and the cloud.
Where do you find inspiration for your manis?
This is so incredibly cute! *-*
