Romantic night at the beach ♥

<div style="text-align: justify;">I totally love summer themed nails, so I can't get enough of them. I made this creation a couple of weeks ago for a summer contest. For me this is really summer, the beach, ocean, palm trees, islands, romance, sunset, moonlight, stars etc. Can't wait to go on vacation because the weather here in Holland is not that nice ;)</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2J6Z9IFw4m27JLqwK3EfxgGjF8wwQOVCIxXVwK1efoE9HPhcrATSxDeAZN5248GTY4RW-nvsaAIhPEQrNS6p7jzu2XBSECR0f7RSO7wxCerbVlHmzGATw_iVbKynuMmLKw9TExLecQV0/s1600/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="292" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2J6Z9IFw4m27JLqwK3EfxgGjF8wwQOVCIxXVwK1efoE9HPhcrATSxDeAZN5248GTY4RW-nvsaAIhPEQrNS6p7jzu2XBSECR0f7RSO7wxCerbVlHmzGATw_iVbKynuMmLKw9TExLecQV0/s400/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">For the base I used a lot of different holographic polishes: China Glaze: DV8, 2NITE, OMG, LOL, IDK, BFF and QT and mixed and layered them all together to create the sky and sea. I also used Teeez holographic Outta Control and Cool to make it more sparkly and gradient. I used Konad M14 for the stars stamped with Nfu Oh 65. With Konad SN black and image plate S2 I stamped the palm trees. The islands I made with a part of HB46. The moon and black beach is freehand. And the love couples are self made water decals.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8po2e2BHF84z6ATPzNs6V_ehbcJ1lXDv6EUHuasQXe5AYDz3Goe1eHEjQsRqeSJKz-AGWsgyL2vbl2K0YAwIrzTswb4vdMDaVG8tf4M_GDm56UZhiDLJVtcmlwauLRLCPnqeCT4yNR14/s1600/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="292" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8po2e2BHF84z6ATPzNs6V_ehbcJ1lXDv6EUHuasQXe5AYDz3Goe1eHEjQsRqeSJKz-AGWsgyL2vbl2K0YAwIrzTswb4vdMDaVG8tf4M_GDm56UZhiDLJVtcmlwauLRLCPnqeCT4yNR14/s400/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+2.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">My hand.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEToqSwoGheRTjB2GTSs0mrkyjBh61KzEQFDfijoNjAsLXVQaaEpn9j87HW9WH5DgjTW5kUrwfw2YIoMQyR8c75G7CC8f9KmcmzKIobfFGfj8j5wxmvWLVvK9OGGPnIjty-k-VnyKaKHI/s1600/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="301" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEToqSwoGheRTjB2GTSs0mrkyjBh61KzEQFDfijoNjAsLXVQaaEpn9j87HW9WH5DgjTW5kUrwfw2YIoMQyR8c75G7CC8f9KmcmzKIobfFGfj8j5wxmvWLVvK9OGGPnIjty-k-VnyKaKHI/s400/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+3.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Under different light.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixCa7e2H-vbIkkuh6AMZvTQpbdn9wQyhj72cNYsoKqsLHiE0WRmeAXhhBAR7zhoQEPWRizYzzTuG7IIAj2XIVpjMK8tCIEKGL_wY3dZrWRjeS9jyUZLtxQmh3BStgw0Ag7bmw_4AQmAUM/s1600/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="307" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixCa7e2H-vbIkkuh6AMZvTQpbdn9wQyhj72cNYsoKqsLHiE0WRmeAXhhBAR7zhoQEPWRizYzzTuG7IIAj2XIVpjMK8tCIEKGL_wY3dZrWRjeS9jyUZLtxQmh3BStgw0Ag7bmw_4AQmAUM/s400/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+4.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">My hand again.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">And ofcourse I had to make matching toes :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYYm5cKAl9g-tN8wMMmR4d4adEstSvTPzQBG-hDhmE7U0QrhDyrSussHrCzPBSB9IS8ge5NhiFciOKe9TKA0q_tdlIo0qVwTGGQgrSSrpjWgefTTNvUFEluuLtkAnjG3o3yRPuk2YADsQ/s1600/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYYm5cKAl9g-tN8wMMmR4d4adEstSvTPzQBG-hDhmE7U0QrhDyrSussHrCzPBSB9IS8ge5NhiFciOKe9TKA0q_tdlIo0qVwTGGQgrSSrpjWgefTTNvUFEluuLtkAnjG3o3yRPuk2YADsQ/s400/Romantic+night+at+the+beach+5.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">My toes are China Glaze 2NITE, DV8, IDK en LOL.On my big toe also a selfmade water decal of a love couple.

She had just received her nail polish wall displays/racks and did not had any tools/supplies to hang them up on her wall. So I immediately asked my dad if he had any screws for me and if I could borrow his tools....and there I went to the railway station to get on the train with everything. It was soooo hot that day luckily Giuditta picked me up at the station with her bike so all the heavy stuff could go in het bicycle bags. It was a long walk to her home but in the mean time we had a lot of time to chat and visit some stores :) </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">We had so much fun that day, especially when I was saying/grumbling that my dad gave me the smallest screwdrivers I had ever seen and he probably thought.."Oh women have small hands or something" and after we were done I found the handle where I supposed had click them in.....hahaha I felt sooo stupid and dumb. Another hilarious thing was when we were rearranging her nail polishes by brand and color she said... "Oh those two really look a like" and then she picked them up and looked at the bottom and saw a big surprise....THEY WERE THE SAME ;)  and both of them she bought recently. She gave one bottle to me, as a thank you gift a long with some decals she received that day, for helping that day.....thank you so much ♥<br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5d39y55cIsD1x6_m74BePg0fnIFPCKXOvPY_kfX1ocW2PnCEdYrSfrR0fmV2-rLo3feQ1JmpRZZGVje8CRoIg7gdTl2gaTb1YTq8r-F4BEStmTjfgvEHlPi9aiWKiVmMfHF2Ut8vnDak/s1600/Mijn+gekregen+CC+lakje+en+decals.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5d39y55cIsD1x6_m74BePg0fnIFPCKXOvPY_kfX1ocW2PnCEdYrSfrR0fmV2-rLo3feQ1JmpRZZGVje8CRoIg7gdTl2gaTb1YTq8r-F4BEStmTjfgvEHlPi9aiWKiVmMfHF2Ut8vnDak/s400/Mijn+gekregen+CC+lakje+en+decals.jpg" t8="true" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Here you can see my new friend (Color Club Total Mystery) going to his new home in the train ;) with some typical grass landscape behind it through the window.
