31 Day Challenge - Inspired by a Colour

For my colour I have chosen the cloudy sky. I began with a base coat then took a gradient sponge, coating it half and half with 503 and Blueberry Muffin. Dabbing it gently on the nail, I placed the graduation in different places on each nail. The thumb and the little finger have mostly darker blue and the middle hardly has any dark. Using some tweezers I plucked a ball of sponge out of a foundation sponge and dabbed it in the Snow Me White then onto the nail to create the clouds. I used the same method to add the little bit of yellow for the sun. Using a very fine nail art brush (brought from The Works) I used the Black on Black and painted on little whooshy 'v's for the birds. Finished off with a top coat of Seche Vite.
