Twin Tuesday: Glitter + Anthemion

January 28, 2014

Today I am sharing with you a two in one nail art post!
First off, I have a twin! Not a real life twin, but a blogger twin!
Earlier in the year I joined the Twin Blog Post group on
Facebook, created by Katherine
of Rambles of a Polish Addict
, and was lucky enough to be paired up with Katie from Lustrous Lacquer.  Check out what Katie created HERE. 
In our Facebook group, everyone
got paired up with another blogger, and assigned a random theme. We got “anthemion”
as our challenge theme. Can’t say it was my first choice, but I like a good
challenge.
According to Artlandia, this is what that print looks like:

I ALSO have been participating in Sam from Fingerfood Nails’s
Theme Week Challenges. This week, the theme week was sparkle!
So it only made sense to me to combine the two challenges in
one. How do you think I did? I did my best to create the swirly, palm effect of our
pattern. Not bad for a first go, right?
I’ve got two sets of link up groups down below, so you can
see BOTH challenges entries. Enjoy browsing through everyone’s work:

    Oh great color choices! I like that you tackled the swirly part of the pattern. I thought about it but got scared off. Great job blogger twin!

      Haha thanks blogger twin! I think the only reason the swirly part worked out for me was because that is what a lot of my doodles in school were somewhat like. I KNEW there was a reason for all those doodles in my notebooks….

    I really love those two colors together. The swirly parts turned out so well, too, and I know having those come out so smooth must take a ton of control and finesse

      Thank you Manda! I certainly try, I think they will get even better with practice over time.
