31DC2013 - day 13

Hey! It's my birthday! I'm in Chicago! I'm at Riot Fest! All is dandy.
And today is Animal Print day for the 31 Day Challenge! My favorite day, obvi.


Okay I cheated a tiny bit with this mani and added leopard over my gradient from Day 10, but can you blame me? I had to do almost a whole week of posts in advance...


The gradient was done with two polishes, Ciate - Pepperminty and Ciate - Kiss Chase. I used a sponge (and patience) to create the look.


I added dots with one of my all time faves, China Glaze - That's Shore Bright, a neon purple. I just did messy dots with the polish brush.


And then I added the black detail with a small dotting tool.


Gradients with leopard print are just so beautiful to me and I would seriously wear this every day if I could only choose one type of design for the rest of my life. Soooooo into it. And I know you guys are too!!
Prob one of my favorite manis ever.
Happy birthday to me!
