JEWEL OF THE NILE

I don't know, that's all I kept thinking of this after I got it done, lol. I started off with a base of China Glaze L8r G8r. Then I used a BM plate and did the criss cross pattern. Next I used another BM plate and did the darker green pattern. I used green rice shaped jewels and then added a sequin "necklace" design.

This was my NOTD a couple of days ago. It didn't last very long since I had so many coats of polish, plus I've really been doing some manual labor trying to get things ready for my party this weekend. I literally looked down and one nail was completely missing polish, the whole thing popped off like a fake nail, lol!

Amazing! This looks like a hybrid peacock if they came in lime greens! You must have spend hours and had no coffee at all on board to keep your hand steady!

I really like this. What polish did you use for the criss cross, because it's so nice & opaque.
