Challenge Your Nail Art: "Fall Leaves and/or Trees

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!  Mine was a bit busy, full of errands and chores.  I had an archery tournament last night and placed 2nd!  That was pretty exciting for me - I wasn't expecting to place at all!  :D

You may remember all the Halloween nail art I did in October as part of a challenge for a nail art group on Facebook.  Well that group has a new set of challenges for this month, all themed around Fall/Thanksgiving!


Here is the design I came up with for today's challenge:



I wanted to create something was was a little more unconventional for a fall leaf design.  I wanted to do something reminiscent of my childhood, because Fall has always been my favorite season.  One of the reasons why it is my favorite is because, growing up, my family and I would go to the park in our neighborhood and rake all the leaves into a giant pile we would then jump and/or fall into.  It was so much fun every time - even though it totally did NOT feel like landing on a bed of pillows :P  I tried to convey that memory through this nail design :)  I hope you like it ^_^

Tomorrow I will have a new design for you for the next challenge!  Until then, take a look at all the other beautiful designs of the other ladies participating in this challenge!

See you soon <3
