Nail of the Week: Blue & Pewter Metallic designs

For this week, I wanted to use my Pewter colored "Stevie" Julep polish so I paired it with a light blue color "Dianna" resembling that of a Tiffany's box (I think that's why I like it so much). I used a lot of layered dots to create the pattern on the tips of my nails. For the outside I used a large dotting tool and then I just used a smaller one with the base color to create a ring look. For the stripes, I simply painted the blue color as a base coat and waited for it to dry. After it dried, I used strips of tape to mark off the lines and painted with the pewter color. You have to wait until it's completely dry before you peel off the tape to make sure your lines do not bleed through. For the accent nail, I used "Stevie" as the base color, made 4 blue dots in a sort of diamond shape, and then made smaller pewter dots on the inside edges of each blue one (see photos). I really like this pairing of colors and finishes, as one is flat and the other is metallic. Mix it up or try something new, just have fun!
