Nail Art Marathon 2015 - 9. Butterflies

Hey, hey!

Another late manicure is here! This time I don't have any excuse for not posting on time, except for my laziness... Or I could blame the hot weather... May I, may I? :D

Anyway, this week theme was Madalina's idea and it is one of my favorites from this collaboration - butterflies! ^_^
I love butterflies for their beautiful colors and soft wings. They brighten my day when I notice them in the garden or on the street and I remember that in my grandparents' back yard there was always this white butterfly that would appear each spring and sit on my grandfather's shoulder at some point during spring. I'm pretty sure there's some magic involved. 

And here are my nails:

Artificial light

 I had the yellow-purple color combo on my mind for a while and I decided to use it now whit a little bit more "bling". 
I used Rimmel London Rita Ora 450 - Daisy Days over a white nail polish in the saran wrap technique and painted butterflies with different shades of purple acrylic paint. On the other nails I used Avon Decadence and I added Avon Magic Effects Diamond Shatter over them and over the butterflies' wings.

After the design was done, I added a bit of purple glitter around the butterflies, like some magic dust. The effect was "wow". :D

Natural light

My nails were so long when I took these pictures!
Unfortunately, 3 of them broke and two had huge cracks so I had to cut them all. I will show you one more manicure with long nails this week and afterwards you'll be able to witness my nails growing again, from scratch.
