Got Polish Challenge - Dotted Blossoms Nail Art

The prompt for my Golden Oldie Thursday Challenge is Green. I loved the cherry blossom stamping nail art that I have done in the past so much (here & here), that I wanted to do that again for this. But instead of stamping the image on, I thought I would try a simple little free hand this time. So here are my blossom laden branches!

The green polish is Barry M Greenberry. The branches are done with Barry M Black. The dotted flowers have been done with the polish Bourjois 10 Days No Chips No. 15.

This nail art was fun to do and looks really cute. I used a fine nail art brush to draw random branches starting from one corner of the nail once the green polish was dry. It doesn't matter if they are not uniform because first, they are not uniform in Nature and second, the dotted blossoms cover them to some extent. Then I used a double ended dotting tool to dot on the flowers. I used the finer end of the dotting tool for the ends and the thicker end for the base of the branches. I also dotted on some floating petals. Finished with top coat.
