Tutorial 3
Girly Nails are always in style, especially when it comes to trending fashion. Sure The flower pattern trend started a while back but its still in style. This DIY was inspired by my new rose pattern kimono jacket.

Follow these easy DIY steps.
  1.    Choose the colours you would like to work with.
  2.    Paint nails with desired base coat.
  3.    Paint nails with two coats of Dark Purple leaving out the Ring finger.
  4.    Paint Ring finger with two coats of white polish.
  5.    After polish has been dried.
  6.         Paint a large dot of dark purple polish on top corner of Ring finger.
  7.   Paint a smaller dot of light purple and white polish.                                                  NOTE: It does not have to be in any pattern once its placed within the larger dot of polish. Use a toothpick to swirl colours into each other creating a "rose".
  8.  Repeat the same pattern on opposite bottom corner of ring finger.
  9.  Use a toothpick or very fine point dotting tool and dark green polish to create leaf like shape at the edge of the rose.
  10. Use light green polish to create a thin stroke along the middle of the leaf you have just created.
  11. Add on a few more leaves to your rose.
  12. Clean up edges with remover and small brush, then use desired glossy topcoat to finish off your manicure.
