Last week I returned from my holiday in sunny Thailand, and even better the sun was shining in the UK! So now I’m full of summer spirit and decided to show this on my nails with ice creams, sun and flowers.

I started with three coats of Rimmel ‘sweet as sugar’ nail polish for a sky blue finish.

Using a yellow nail art pen I drew on the suns and the centre of the flower. Around this I used a dotting pen and BarryM ‘Pomegranate’ gelly nail paint for the petals. For the ice cream cones I used another dotting tool and a beige Rimmel PRO nail polish to draw on a triangle. To this I added dots of coloured nail polish for the ice cream in the cone.

The dotting tools that I used are pictured below. The larger end was for the blocks of colour and the fine, pointed end was for the lattice detailing on the ice cream cones.

The finished nails are pictured below.
