Glam Nails Challenge: Dec.13 - Poinsettia

Hi guys! Today's mani is for Dec.13 of the Glam Nails Challenge, and the theme was Poinsettia. I know I'm late with the challenges again, but I plan on finishing this. So I apologize to those of you that don't want to see holiday manis anymore, but expect more of them. Lol. Anyway, I started off with a golden yellow holo for my base and began to look for an image that would help me achieve the look of a poinsettia. I didn't have any poinsettia images, so I took a leaf image and used that. I first stamped it on with a green polish and added a lighter green to create the leaves. I then used a dark red polish and added red to make the petals of the flower. It could've come out better to be honest, I did regret not adding some white to the back of the flower. It would've popped more. Last thing I did, was add some golden dots near the middle of the flowers, let that dry, and added top coat.

Close-Ups:

Well I hope you guys still like these, even though they do look a bit weird. Thanks for stopping by, until next time.
