A Birthday Splatter!

Hey All!  So, today's my birthday and I wanted to post something fun.  I recently purchased the Orly Fired Up minis and thought they might work well in a Splatter Mani..

My Birthday Splatter:




It's fun, right?  It was so hard to photograph though.  My favorite fingers are my thumb and ring.  I started with a base of Orly Au Champagne.  After that dried, I splattered with Orly Rapture, Flicker, Smolder, and Flare.  (To "Splatter", you dip a straw in some polish then quickly puff on the straw while holding it about 3-4 inches above your nail).  

Hope you like it... I love the Fall Colors!!

  2. Happy Birthday! I also love the thumb. Did you tape off the rest of your cuticles/ skin before you did the splatter? I haven't tried it yet because...messy, haha.
