First step is to prep the natural nail for application of gel polish, or acrylic. Use a buff/nude gel polish color to create the two curved spaces on the nail. Cure and wipe off the tacky layer.
Using watered down acrylic paints for smoothness, I started creating the polka dots and greenery for this design.
Add your flowers over the greenery using acrylic paint again.
Add some smaller, and lighter colored flowers for some fillers.
Start to create some detail in your flowers using colors that will stand out.
If you wish to add just a bit more greenery, using a lighter green acrylic paint, you can add leaves for the flowers.
Topcoat with gel. Cure, wipe of tacky layer.
For a real pear effect, glue flatback 1mm pearls onto every other dot. These are so gorgeous!
