Lazy 15: Galaxy Nails

Hi everyone! I hope you had a fabulous weekend. Mine was good, yesterday was soooooooo relaxing - something I haven't experienced in MONTHS.


So when this challenge began, there were a few days I read and groaned. You saw a recent one with water marbling. The second was galaxy nails, but I'm actually SO impressed with what I came up with.

So here's what I did (yes, I made a handy dandy graphic!):


Then, I added on some loose silver star glitter I had and voila!


So there you have it! I know it's not the usual galaxy nails you see with lots and lots of sponging but 1. you should know me by now. I like glitter. and 2. I think these are sort of a different take, like what the galaxy looks like from Earth if we're looking up at the sky. 


xoxo,
Amanda

These are SO pretty!! :) I really like the fact that they aren't like the usual galaxy nails with sponging it really makes them unique! Awesome job! :)

Thank you! I am a little sheepish to say I love them too - that doesn't make me narcissistic does it? lol

Thanks Wes!

Thank you! The truth is, the only reason it's not sponging is because I haven't tried it and I got afraid! haha

I like it! I have semi-space nails right now with Orly Rock It and an unnamed Urban Outfitters sheer black (not quite jelly?) with big and small holo glitters.
