Falling For Nail Art Challenge - Cloudy Skies

This was Sunday's cloud mani. I actually had it done and ready on Sunday but procrastinated on taking the pictures. These pics are from today... three days of wear! Not too bad. I am a little disappointed with this mani. It didn't turn out quite as I had hoped but it is pretty close. I can say it actually resembles how the weather has been here. It hasn't rained in a few days and the sun has actually shown up though it's still cool outside.


I started this off with two coats of Zoya Robyn. I love the brightness of this blue.

The first color I used for the clouds is China Glaze Moonlight. I wanted to show some semi sheer clouds in the sky. I then used China Glaze Cosmic Dust for the ugly black clouds that come around during storms. Here is where my disappointment came in... I used ColorMates On The Rocks for the last color. It dried a bit more sheer than it went on so it made it look messy.  

It looks good from this angle!
