Where In The World - Finland

It's been a while since I posted an entry for the Where In The World challenge. I admit - I was trying to forget about that challenge and I didn't really think I will get to finish it. But this last weekend I was googling something and saw this gorgeous picture from Finland, and decided I can go for it and actually complete the challenge. Let's see how far I can go this month then! 

And for now - here is my Finland Entry:

I apologize for the terrible clean-up. However, it's not the first and definitely not the last time I do such a sloppy work i'm afraid... Anyhoo - my mani is based on the magical Aurora. Finland being so up north is known for a clear and beautiful view of this northern glamour. I have never seen the Aurora for real, but one day I hope I will! And this is the photo that inspired me:

I started this mani with a gradient of purple and green, using BarryM Key Lime and BarryM Plum. Next, I added some random strokes of polish using Bondi New-York The Limelight. On that I stamped some landscape using Julie G. Black Sheep and MJ XIX plate and I topped it all with Nails Inc Caviar Topcoat Glitter.

So I hope you like this mani and my inspiration! And make sure you check the other entries for Finland in this challenge below!
