The Digit-al Dozen Does Nature: DNA


I hope you all are seeing a theme here. I really wanted to do something totally different for this week's theme of nature. So many different ideas but I decided to delve deep into what makes up nature. Today we have DNA. DNA are made up of molecules and contain the genetic instructions of every living organism.

This is what I based my mani off of. Not perfect, but close. And it looks like we may have some DNA splicing going on on my index finger (oh yeah, totally meant to have the stamp not work properly!).

I used a mixture of China Glaze Take a Trek, Strap on Your Moonboots with A England Tristam as my base. I think when I matted it using OPI Matte Top Coat I lost a lot of the glowing of those amazing polishes. I stamped using China Glaze Sci-Fly By and Messy Mansion MM25.

Anytime DNA is mentioned, this is what I hear:


"Die-na-saur DNA"
