A England Rose Bower

Hey there!  Here's something I rarely try...freehand.  Last week I wanted to use A England Rose Bower with some stamping decals that ended up being a disaster so I tried this instead.  On the plus side, I also pulled out A England Excalibur (the new edition) to use for the accent nail!

There's really not much to say about this.  I used 2 coats of Rose Bower and Excalibur.  Both have A England's fantastic buttery formula.  Seriously, I wish all polishes could have A England's formula...flawless!  If you've never seen Excalibur, look closely.  It's silver with tiny little gold glitter mixed in there.  It's so pretty.  

Then I tried to harness my inner Kimiko7878, the queen of freehand flowers.  And she even lives in the same city as me!  For the flowers I used Rose Bower, Camelot, a bit of Excalibur and a black striper polish.

I definitely need to work on my freehand skills so for now I'll probably stick with my true love, stamping, and just gawk at the looks that the true artists can come up with.  

'Til next time...
