Dandelion Wishes

I was playing with different purple combos, trying to decide which to use for my bestest ever friend's wedding this summer; however, when I layered China Glaze Skyscraper over Revlon Plum Night, I loved it so much, I decided to keep it and try Robin Moses' Make a Wish - Dandelion design on top! ^.^

Two coats of Revlon Plum Night:

One coat China Glaze Skyscraper on top:

While this combo is super gorgeous to look at, I just couldn't help but not leave it alone. Which is probably why I frequently go overboard - I never can leave well enough alone.

This one turned out pretty good, though, if I do say so myself!

I didn't want to use a matte topcoat over the glittery background, but at the same time, I didn't want something super shiny. So I went with Wet n Wild's fast dry top coat. I actually usually use it as a base coat because it's streaky and barely shiny, and basically is crap in the top coat department, but it was perfect to go on this design! ^.^

That's all I have for today. Buenos días. =)

This is so pretty. I may try this... If I can actually paint a dandelion. Doubtful... I am sadly challenged in the artist department. lol But I love yours. :D

Thank you! :) Follow Robin Moses' tutorial. I thought mine was going to end up being a huge fail, but I kept pausing her video and did all the same things she did and was really surprised at how it came out!
This looks fantastic! I love it!
