Pink and Flowers (Plate m02)

Hello my dear readers!
What I am showing you today is a nail design I AM IN LOVE WITH! I love pink, flowers, shimmer, and I miss spring time. Also, this was my first time trying out BornPrettyStore nail plates. If you read THIS POST you know that I received a prize from one of Marta's giveaways (ChitChatNails.com). I am so happy with the quality and the design variety, I just jumped in with one coat of Freshcover 851, one coat of Sinful Colors Forget Now. Then I stamped with plate m02 using Konad White polish... I love this manicure, I think pink is my color :)

Dark and Chic


Hey!
Long ago, I started watching nail tutorials on YT but I never did any of them because my nails were so brittle and ugly that I could not do anything. I came across the channel Love4Nails by Raquel and she is just AMAZING! I remember that she would do some cute and different french tip manicures and this one I did is sort of reminiscent of her awesomeness. I hope you like my attempt to be cool :P
Hace tiempo, empecé a ver videos de manicures en YT pero nunca intenté nada porque mis uñas eran tan frágiles y feas que no podia hacer nada con ellas. Una vez, me crucé con el canal de Raquel; Love4Nails y ella es MARAVILLOSA! Recuerdo que ella tiene tutoriales de manicure franceses poco comunes y éste que muesto aquí está inspirado en uno que ella hizo. Espero les guste mi intento de hacer algo cool :P
