This floral lace design is perfect for the spring season. I paired a pale baby blue polish with a vibrant orange for a nice contrast, and added some gold detailing.

Polish Used:
- Forever 21 - Baby Blue
- Julep - Sydney
- Base and top coats
- Born Pretty Store stamping plate - Y003 (lace)
- Rubber stamper
- Gold striping tape
- Round gold studs
- Makeup sponge
For this look, I wanted the lace pattern to disappear into the gradient, but my nails are a bit short, so once I added the tape, it cut off the gradient a little. This would definitely work better for longer nails, or if you have short nails like me, maybe make the gradient go up a little higher. To create this look:
- Apply a light blue base color. Baby Blue by Forever 21 is a very faint blue, but it is perfect for a hint of color.
- Use a wet makeup sponge to create a gradient with Baby Blue and Sydney on the tips of the nails. Apply a layer of top coat before stamping since the sponge can leave a little texture to the nails.
- Use a bright orange polish to stamp the floral lace design (top right design on plate Y003) on each nail. Sydney by Julep isn't a "stamping polish," but it stamps beautifully since it is very opaque.
- Add a strip of gold nail tape across each nail to create a French tip look.
- Add two gold round studs on the ring finger. The studs should be on the tape line, and a little off center so they are more on the side of the nail than center.
Here is a plain black and gold stamping of one of the other lace designs.
