Monday Blues (and Pink)

By Marijonails @marijonails
Hi fellow nail polish lovers!!  Happy Monday!
For Monday Blues this week, I wanted to mix it up and use one of my favorite color combos, blue and pink.

I used Barry M Turquoise and Sally Hansen Fuchsia Power to create interlocking dots.  Below is a brief tutorial of how I created the look.

Monday Blues (and pink)

Start with your base colors

Add your second color diagonally across the nail.  In this case I freehanded the second color, but you can also use tape to get nice neat lines.

Add the same color dots as your base color along the line.  Try to keep the dots closer to the side of the second color.

Sorry for this blurry pic :(.  Next, add the dots using the second color on the other side of the diagonal line.

I love, love, love blue and pink together and interlocking dots is such a simple, yet cute look.  Looking at this mani definitely takes my Monday Blues away.
What do you guys think of this mani?  Have you tried interlocking dots before?
I hope you this tutorial was helpful.
