The Digit-al Dozen DOES Floral, Day 5: Abstract Flowers!

Good morning, readers! It's the final day of Floral Week with The Digit-al Dozen. Have you enjoyed it? I've actually loved it much more than I expected to. It had me step out from my comfort zone so that always helps. This final mani is inspired by the Digit-al Dozen Queen of Florals herself-- Lindsey from Wondrously Polished. I was so excited when I saw her post this Abstract Flowers manicure a couple of weeks ago and it's been on my to-recreate list ever since. I didn't want to completely copy her mani, so I went with a pink color palette.

Although mine look a bit more circular and less floral, I still love how these turned out!
  • I started with a base of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls.
  • Then, I used a small dotting tool and made a dot in the center of the nails with OPI I Just Can't Cope-acabana.
  • Then, using a nail art brush and moving from the center outward, I did three petal lines in various OPI pink cremes: Mod About You, Sparrow Me The Drama, Kiss Me I'm Brazilian, Sorry I'm Fizzy Today, and Girls Love Ponies.
  • Then I did HKGirl Top Coat followed by OPI Matte Top Coat.



What do you think? I hope you liked Floral Week with The Digit-al Dozen as much as I have! Thanks so much for reading!
