TAGSIBOL

Hi all, most of us are excited about the spring season, in the Philippines they call it "TAGSIBOL", it is when the flowers and trees starts to bloom.... In my design, I will show to you the sky and the cherry blossom tree, which is non-existing here in our country. I used sky blue to represent the sky, I sponged and stamped it with m66 konad image plate, and drew branches on it ... Hope you like it! God Bless...

Perfect Pair

Hi, have a great Sunday everyone, last night I can't sleep... So I decided to do a research for my new layout and change my logo at the same time... It was already 1am when I fell asleep... And when I woke up this morning, I came up with a nail art design that will blend with my new theme, it's green and blue with a touch of brown and flower, here's the "Perfect Pair" NOTD that I made. I divided the two colors, green and blue posh nail polish, I chose m63 konad image plate because it looks like a tribal design similar to my background, and I added flower rhinestones on it....Hope you like it!!
