MoYou London 31 Day Nail Art Challenge: Day 4 Fantasy

Hey lacqueristas,

As I said Day 4 of this nail art challenge is delayed.  I was able to get my post up to Instagram in time for the deadline, but the post had to wait until I finished my Elevation Polish post which I had been working on for some time.  I'm dreading the challenge for Day 5 which is shadows.  Let me take a moment to ask how does one interpret this theme?  Ugh I'm a scientist not an artist damnit (lol you may be inclined to disagree but it's true).  Alas...in any case let's get onto the day 4.

The theme this time was Fantasy.  Woot right up my alley!  So glad I went ahead and bought a few of the Fairytale Collection plates.  The truth is I wanted them all immediately, but I had to pull back a little and be sensible about buying up ALL the plates.  Plus I have to keep a little back for my other plate addictions.  Because MoYou releases plates every week I just compile a never ending ever growing wishlist.  Lol.  In any case I decided to break out the Fairy plates and create some art.

Mani-louge
Basecoat/Topcoat: Glitter A-Peel / Sally Hansen Diamond Flash
Base color: Pahlish Your Bright Shadow
Topper: IMN Northern Lights in Gold
Stamping polish: Mundo de Unas # 33
Stamping plates: Fairytale Collection Plate 01 and 05

I chose Pahlish Your Bright Shadow because I have been staring at this polish since I ordered it along with the Elevation Polish duo.  The truth is I've been a long time fan of this brand.  Her polishes are gorgeous, and this one is no exception!  Creating this design was all about the lady in the dress, but the dress didn't fit completely on my nails however what did was stunning.  I'm a bit disappointed with my ring finger.  For some reason the fairy on the mushroom ended up looking a little flat.  If I'd had the proper time I would have gone ahead and redone it, but this goes to show you how exacting I am about my nail art.  If the vision falls short I redo it until I'm 100% satisfied. Honesty I have a feeling I will repeat this manicure at some point.
