Quick one today. This week's ANM theme was Polka Dots. Other than the sprinkles on my cupcakes last week, I haven't used my dotting tools properly until today.
I was too chicken to do the typical 'dotticure' as I was concerned that I would struggle to keep it straight, lol. So I did some googling and decided on this simple and very forgiving design.
I used a base colour of Cult Nails Let Me Fly, a dusty turquoise shimmer. Then dotted on the following polishes in various sized dots:
Essie - Pretty Edgy
Essie - Mojito Madness
China Glaze - For Audrey
Revlon - Emerald City
Today I also used a paint palette for the first time. I picked it up from Officeworks for about $3. Now I need to work out how to clean it without destroying the plastic...
Dotting was surprisingly easy. You need a steady hand, but it is a great and easy introduction to nail art. I think I might actually try dotting again very soon with ambitions of attempting the typical dotticure.
Next week's theme is floral and I already know what I'm going to do (or try to do) and I'm pretty excited!
Please check out the other lovely ladies who participate in ANM - they are a talented bunch!

Awesome use of dots and love how you kept it all the same colour. I find dotting very simple and forgiving too. When in doubt, dot it out!:p
