So, this came about the day after my dissertation was handed in. I hadn't properly done any swatching or my nails in so long and I was super looking forward to denting my ever-growing swatch pile. The first shade I put on to swatch was Dawn Song from the new H&M collection (swatches here and here). I was like 'that would make a super cute background'. I then saw this wonderful design by @pinselpoesie using MoYou's scandi and artist plates:


Seeing as how I finally managed to get my hands on Artist 22 (I've been wanting it since July last year that's how long it's been out of stock) I was like, 'I should do that but with more pink and white cause I'm basic'. And that's what I did.

It was annoying though because I loved the result and as such couldn't bring myself to peel it off to continue swatching so I only managed to swatch one polish that day ðŸ™ˆ oh well.

How I did it:-
I started off with 2 layers of Dawn Song, followed by some random patterns from the Artist 22 plate in white. Then added another paint design in Razzle Dazzle (those chrome polishes by Barry M stamp so good). The flowers are from Botanical 1. I need to find a new black stamping polish though as the one from Born Pretty isn't that great.
