The Digit-al Dozen Does Summer: Raindrops


Day five of The Digit-al Dozen Does Summer and today I have the rain that comes (hopefully) after a Haboob.

I used OPI Here Today.....Aragon Tomorrow Suede as my base (two coats). I then used Sally Hansen Emerald City to create veins on my leaf. I then put on a thin coat of Wet n Wild Matte Top Coat (the veins almost disappeared). I then used a dotting tool and Poshe to create the raindrops.


Not exactly how I pictured it turning out, but it'll do. :)

Phew! I made through Summer! Now if only the Arizona summer would end, I'm hating 110F plus days! Grrrr!

Don't forget to check out what the other ladies did for their final day of summer!

What a lovely idea! I love that this refers to your stunning haboob mani :-) )

Our summer has stopped recently. Rain, grey skies and temperatures under 20°C make me search for wooly socks :-
Well, weather is never what you like.. i wouldn't mind some of your degrees ^^

Thank you so much! Oh, I wish! I miss 20C weather!
I justlove your ideas ^^
Over 20C wouldn't be too bad for August I think maybe a bit... it suddenly is autumn emmm fall here, 18C the most. Last week flipflops, this week wooly socks ...and I have ordered this weather only for mid october! ;-)

Thank you so much Laurie!
It's amazing how many of us have associated rain with summer. I think all you US/Canadian girls are secretly living in the UK!
