Step 1

Apply two layers of CND Shellac Vintage Blue Jeans.

Step 2

Fill in the nail with CND Retention+ Powder Bright White and cure in the lamp for one minute.

Step 3

Mix the pigment Lecenté Powder Gold Chrome with Running Latte and CND Shellac No-Wipe+ for painting the leaves and cure in the lamp. Use a thin line brush on the thin lines of the leaf and fix the leaf with CND Shellac No-Wipe+.

Step 4

Create the flower using CND Plexigel Porcelain. To finish the petal, use a thin bristle brush, cure in the lamp and turn the cured petal over and use CND Plexigel Builder to attach.

Step 5

Add gold rounds to decorate using the same procedure as for the flowers.

Step 6

Decorate the flowers with glitter and stones.
