Step by Step: Pink Leopard Manicure

I'm so in animal prints lately, can you tell? :D So here's another one... But unfortunately I love this manicure in person more as on this pictures. Some of them I took 3 days ago when the weather was so grey and rainy so they aren't the best. And everything looks so better in person. :(

Anyway another step by step, easy as always but I took some pictures in between and I want to post them all together. Another layering and stamping... Here's the final result. :)

But it's much prettier in person, because that holographic glitter doesn't show up at all. :( More after a click.:)

I'm a big fan of OPI nail polish, because the brush fits me perfectly and their colors are just stunning. So I decided to try 2 OPI's I never had chance to try on and a lovely glitter polish. I used that mini pattern from BPS ip m57 which is tiny so I had to stamp twice to cover my whole short nubs. :D

I applied OPI's Sparrow me the Drama from last years Pirates of the Caribbean collection. I didn't want to use it on short nails, so I was waiting my nails to grow, but my nails are still short and I just had to try it out. Sparrow me the Drama is such a lovely dusty bubblegum pink. I put OPI - Mod about you on my ring finger as an accent nails. It's gorgeous blue toned pastel pink with a bit weird guppy formula, but 2 coats were enough.

Then I wanted something sparkly so I decided to layer one coat of Teenage Dream. This is absolutely one of my favorite glitter from OPI. I got it from Stéphanie, that's why I love it even more. <3 This combo is much prettier in real life, because of all that holographic glitter and rainbow going on. :D Just look at a bottle, pure love! :L

Last step was just to add stamping with BPS IP m57 with Wet n Wild - Black Créme and then I added dots with a dotting tool in reverse colors as the base colors were. I topped everything with a coat of TC. :D

I love it in person, but I'm not loving it on pictures. :D What do you think? Do you like animal prints? What's your favorite? Do you freehand them or use the image plates? I definitely don't have a hand for freehand nail art so I love the stamping! :D
