Gradient Rose Nail Art

Happy December, everyone! (And Happy Chanukah, too!) Today's nail art was inspired by Lacquerstyle's negative rose manicure. Originally, I made this gradient intending on doing some Chanukah nail art, but I failed at that, so I went with this unique rose look.

I started with a base of Zoya Dove, and sponged on Orly Snowcone and Essie Butler Please to create the gradient. To draw the roses, I used a small brush and white acrylic paint, following Lacquerstyle's tutorial.

I am really enjoying making gradients lately - I might have to do some more! What do you think?
