Valentine Conversation Hearts

Do you like those Valentine conversation heart candies? I do! So for day 5 of our 14 days of Valentine's series I have conversation heart nail art for you.

I've seen various versions of these and I wanted to try something different. I don't know if it's been done before or not.

So let's take a look shall we?

Color Club Magic Attraction one coat no top coat

I used one coat of Color Club Magic Attraction as my base. I waited for it to dry on its own, no topcoat added. 

Below I did a collage to show the steps of how I did these. 

Step by step tutorial

I made a heart outline with white acrylic paint. I filled in the heart with the white paint so the polish on top would pop a bit more. 

Using four polishes from Color Club pastel neon collection (Meet Me At The Rink, Diggin' The Dancing Queen, 'Till The Record Stops, and Feathered Hair Out There) I filled in the hearts.
I had to go over them twice with polishes to make them opaque.

Using my detail brush and red acrylic paint I wrote in the words. Once the words were dry I used a generous amount of Seche Vite top coat to seal and smooth everything in.

Here is another look at this design. I hope you guys like this look as much as I did! Would you try it? If you do tag me on IG I would like to see.

Thank you for reading. Happy polishing! :)
