40 Great Nail Art Ideas - Coral and White - Waterfall

This week's colour prompt was Coral and White and the pattern / style was waterfall.
I stated with a pale peachy base of Barry M In a Flash and then I did the waterfall part with Golden Rose Holiday 53 - a lovely corally sand, OPI My Chihuahua Bites and Colour Alike Kind of White.
I think they worked OK although my white wasn't really crisp enough against the peach and maybe I should have tried a darker base.
I did stamp over them later for another challenge but I don't think it's one of my better creations. The prompt was Beach for #clairestelle8june - and I used DRK Seasons to add some beachy bits.

September Challenges - Orange and some stamping

I am a bit late with posting but on 6th September the prompt for #30daysofcolourchallenge was orange. I used Golden Rose Holiday 53, a lovely peachy orange textured polish that I bought whilst in Turkey.
This is a lovely polish, it applied really nicely, great coverage in two coats and dried well too. In different lights it is pinky and gold, and actually a pretty good dupe for OPI Jinx.
I thought I'd try stamping with Colors by Llarowe Aubergine Dreams and another of my new Vivid Lacquer plates VL041 - I think the CBL stamped rather nicely, quite subtle but really pretty over the orange.
Then I stamped again with VL041 and A England Proserpine. This was a bit of an experiment as the image was the negative sort, so that only a small amount of what was underneath showed through. It stamped well but did obscure most of the original mani. Finally I added top coat and I think the stamping appeared more precise and the orange and purple glow through the dark teal like embers.
