Accidental Scarabs

Ever sit down to a pile of polish, and just kinda start throwing stuff together? That is what happened here. I started with a base color, then applied another, and another, and then I realized that I had beetles on my fingers and just kinda ran with it. 


Colors Used:
Akira Lacquer Chocolate Kisses
Rimmel Metal Rush Gold Save The Queen
Claire's When in Chrome
OPI I Knead Sourdough
Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in black


For a few weeks, we get June Bugs floating around outside. They are not smart at all. They spend an inordinate amount of time bouncing off the rain gutters or windows. It's amusing and puzzling. How does a critter so dense manage to survive? Anyway, once I applied the Metal Rush over the brown, I knew that I was going to try for a scarab type thing. I grabbed whatever polishes were handy and went to work. My accent nail sort of went into a "wing" direction, which I don't totally hate. It's not neat and tidy, but it is definitely different.
