This was a quick and fun one. I started with L.A. Colors metallic blue as the base nail polish color. I stamped an accent nail with Urban Outfitters silver (Bundle Monster plate BM12), and topped the other nails with Sally Girl mini glitter polish, which is made up of silver hexagons and small circles.

Patriotic polish
In honor of Veteran's Day, as well as my husband's new U.S. citizenship, I present American flag nails!

The nail polish I used was Santee white as the base color, L.A. color metallic blue (BCC 566?) for the stars, and Maybelline Cherry Rain for the stripes.
I used the stars tips from Mash plate m44 and the diagonal stripes from Bundle Monster plate BM20.
I did the stars first, let it dry a little bit, then covered the stars with blue painter's tape and added the stripes.
This manicure was actually surprisingly quick and easy. In retrospect I should have used a darker blue such as Ulta Moody Blues to get a truer American flag blue. Next time!
