Spring nail art for intermediate nail artist

Hi! 

Here is a nail art design. This nail art design is slightly more complicated than the "easy level" but still fairly easy to accomplish. I wanted to represent one of my favorite parts of spring, sunrises and sunsets. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You will need: base coat, topcoat, black, yellow, orange, blue polish, and purple gold and nail sparkle polish. You'll also need cotton ball, nail polish remover, a toothpick and a piece of fabric or cosmetic sponge. 

Using a sponge has a better affect, but I did not have one so I went with fabric. Paint the fabric with the nail polish and size it a little larger then your nail. I used yellow then orange then blue ( you can use any color nail polish that reminds you of a sunrise ). Dab the fabric onto your nail, you may have to do this more than once to get the color opaque enough. 

Clean up around your nail with a cotton ball or q-tip. 

With your toothpick draw one straight black line, like so. 

Draw other lines coming out from it to make it look like a tree. 

Continue this until you have a line of trees at the bottom of your nail. 

Add some birds flying to make a point of interest. 

Now add your purple sparkles and gold sparkles to the yellow and blue of your nail. Add a topcoat to smooth out the design. 

Your done!!! I hope you enjoyed this:) I am planning to do one nail design every week for three to five weeks. 

Let me know what you would like to see more of this summer.

Once apon a time, there was a teenager that was very excited for spring and the fact that winter was over was joyous news. But a terrible thing happened!! It snowed all day and they ended up with 13 inches of snow and still exspecting more! 

Will someone please give me the definition of April showers? Because I though it was referring to rain.
