31DC2015 Day 19 - Fire - Dried Flowers Over Fire Gradient

I had the idea for today's mani after finally getting hold of some dried flowers for nail art - eeek! so excited!

Here's what I came up with:

Flowers. Dead. By the Fire. How poetic, right? ;)

I started by making a fiery gradient with Inocos Papoila and Bellaoggi No.34 and sponging the tip of each nail black for some charred ground.

I then applied some flowers, not pressing them much to the nail, to get this sort of 3D effect you see. And this is how nail art accessories can save your day, 'cause I had no idea what to do with this prompt ;)

Let me know what you think about these: have you ever tried dried flowers for nail art?
