Summer Twilight

So, this was going to be my entry for Polish Hoarder Disorder's http://polishhoarderdisorder.blogspot.com/ design challenge for this week...if I could figure out how to do e-mail correctly! lol.

This was inspired by a twilight sky here in Utah this last week, it was just breathtaking and my attempt to recreate it is nothing like the real deal but it was fun to do!
the dot on the ring finger is Venus which is visible in the summer twilight sky in my hemisphere. I used OPI Russian Navy fading to Pure Ice Celestial and then fading into OPI Fiercly Fiona, with Venus being a combo of Alpine Snow and China Glaze Solar Power. Thanks for looking!

    @ Freshie-- I read your post on your inspiration, so fun, I can totally see it, this was not my first time but it was my first time sponging over an already existing mani. and I was a little rushed, lol.

  8. I put Fiercely Fiona on first and then sponged over top with OPI Russian Navy and then I sponged with the Celestial. I had to add Venus, it is an important part of the night sky here! :D
