Purple And Blue Flower Nails

Shaped and painted nails with fimo!

This is actually relatively easy to do. All I did was clip a semi circle out of the tip and sand it into shape.
I then painted over with a shiny blue. The blue was thin, so it needed a good couple coats. I then placed striping tape across the tips and painted over with a somewhat shiny, deep purple.

Plucked the tape off and let it dry before adding thin slices of flower fimo. I had to do the whole "dab a drop of topcoat-wait for tackiness then apply" thing, and gently press down on the slices to keep them from warping. It happens with the top coat. I like cutting my own, thicker slices. But the thin slices are very fun too!

I would rather embed them into acrylic or gel nails though. They have a look when done that way. Maybe one day I can do sculpted nails. I've always wanted to do it!
