Spring Chicken nails

Sarah from Chalkboard nails is hosting a contest where you use dotting tools to create your designs (check out her site for guidelines here) This is my entry.

I think it’s a wonderful contest to stirrup some creativity. There are so many ideas that you can use with dotting tools. 

My idea:

I had a convo with my coworkers about a planned weekend where we would stay in, bake cake pops, watch some movies and hang out. We then got overly excited about what kind of cake pops to make and how perfect they are for every occasion (really, they are!). Anyways long story short, I figured since spring is coming soon, and I wanted to wear a skittle manicure, these were inspired by Bakerella’s cake pops.

I strictly used nail polish and dotting tools to create these.

I wanted to stop at just the chicks but since it was a dotting tool contest, I went all out with the polka dots. I like that they made the chickies irregular shaped and somewhat fluffy! If you look closely, I got impatient and the top coat smudged some of the eyes so they look like they’re crying :(

If you have questions on colours and steps on how I made them. Feel free to ask. I will update the post. :P
