Let It Snow Winter Challenge; Dots

 Hi y'all! I have some gradient dots for you all today for the Let It Snow Winter Challenge. The theme for the day was dots, and I decided to do something a little different than just some plain ol' polka dots. These were really fun to do! 



 I started these off with LA Colors Moonlight For the base color which is one of my favorite purple colors. I then used a dotting tool and LA Colors in Bliss to make a gradient of dots over the nail, and then did the same again with a smaller dotting tool and white acrylic paint. 
I actually really liked how these came out. Much better than I expecting for sure! 

Let me know in the comments below what you think and don't forget to check out the other ladies dot looks as well!

    Hey, it's Kelly! Another SITS tribe member ;) I really like how you did this! The dots look almost 3D like! I'm not the most skilled when it comes to nail art but I think I could handle doing this one!

      Dots especially just take a little bit of practice, most nail art isn't as hard or complicated to do as it looks ;) And thank you!

      Acrylic paint makes it easier or for me at least, lol. This didn't take long at all.

      But thank you! I'm looking forward to whole SITS tribe deal :D

    Hello from fellow SITS Tribe member :D I tried finding our group in the forum but no luck! I love the design, easy to do but very pretty which makes it perfect in my book! I've gone ahead and followed, about to do the same for the rest of you social media platforms! ^_^
