Spring Challenge - Day 8 - Easter Nails

Today's nails for the Spring Challenge are Easter nails. For these I had a few ideas, and knew I wanted to do a Pick 'n' Mix / Skittles mani. I got the idea for the Mini Eggs from Emily's Nail Files with this great tutorial. At first I wasn't really feeling the colour combination I had going on, but changed some things around, and after the 3 days I had them on I'd grown to love them.

Don't forget to check out Esme's Blog to see what she came up with for today!

Base Coat: Nail RX - Stuck On You
Base Colours: Models Own - Utopia & Pastel Pink
Free Hand Colours: Revlon - Minted
                                Mini M&S - Yellow
                                W7- Suede
                                Models Own - Pastel Pink
                                Sally Hansen - White On
Stamp Colour: Konad White
Image Plate: BM19
Top Coat: Models Own - 3 In 1

Then I added a matte top coat to make everything soft :]

Minted & Skinny Silver Tip

Back to feeling wintery today colour wise! :D I still wish it would hurry up and snow here, as it looks miserable outside! Not as miserable as I feel today though, as I'm coming down with something, my back & joints ache; my eyes are bloodshot and sore, and my throat is pretty nasty feeling. I sounded like such a man when I first woke up :P

Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: Revlon - Minted
Tip Colour: Miss Sporty - Silver (Unknown Name/Number)
Top Coat: China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat
 


I felt like something simple; and felt like a skinny french tip, as many times I do them way too large, but I think this is because I used to tape them off, but I think free-handing is the way to go now ^_^ Though I still need more practice.
