New 31 Day Challenge - Day 8 - Holographic Easter Nails

Hi all! Did everyone have a lovely Easter? Day 8 of the New 31 Day Challenge left me with a choice of duochrome, flakies or holo. Are you surprised that I chose holo? No? Me neither. I think I may do duochrome and flakie manicures later anyway. It's tough to only pick one! 
I'll be getting a new lamp soon for my lightbox, as this one is just so dull. :( The purple color is Nubar Treasure, the blue is Nubar Absolute, and the pink is Nubar Brilliant. These are so much prettier in the sunlight, but sadly it is rainy today so I can't show you. The accent nail is my favorite, it reminds me of a speckled egg! I used OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls for the base and then splattered on acrylic paint by flicking a brush a few inches away from my nail. For the bird and tree design, I used the BM-302 stamping plate. Speaking of stamping plates, I got a new set of them in today, I can't wait to try them out!

Thanks for reading, and be sure to check out the gorgeous nails of the wonderful ladies participating in this challenge along with me!
