Artsy Wednesday: Leafy autumn nail art

Affiliate Disclosure: I receive a small commission for purchases made via affiliate links.

The theme this week for our Artsy Wednesday nail art challenge is leaves, which is convenient since autumn (or for you Americans, “fall” :P) has just started – I did a gradient of autumny colour across my nails, then stamped over it using BM-205.
 

I’ve been really into cremes recently, and ulta3 has a solid selection of nail art staples – I used Tangerine Tango (orange), Honolulu (yellow), Tahitian Lime (green), and one of my recent favourites, Nubar Milk Chocolate Creme (brown). For stamping I used ulta3 Gold Rush Fever (PRC). I like using a big-holed dishwashing sponge for gradients – I’ve never gotten good results with makeup sponges, if you have any tips for that please let me know, because I have a buttload of makeup sponges that need using!
