I don't like green, but.........................

I have to admit, I really like this mani.  I have always hated dark green, and until a few weeks ago I didn't even own a dark green polish.  However, I was browsing ebay, and ended up picking up a little bundle of Rimmel's, 2 of which were this green colour.  It's Rimmel 60 Seconds - Camouflage.  I was going to just give them away or something, but when I saw it in person, I noticed that it's laden with gold shimmer, and the more I saw it, the more I liked it.

I really wanted to wear it, but had no idea what to do with it, so in the end I played it safe and looked through my stamping plates to see what would look good stamped in gold.  In the end I settled for this hounds tooth design from Cheeky plate CH13 from the Cheeky vibrant collection.  Once it was all done, and cleaned up around the edges, I fell in love.  I don't know why, it's totally irrational, but I really liked it, and I didn't want to take it off! 
When I was cleaning up my cuticles, it occurred to me that I think I may have seen this mani somewhere else, but I have no idea where.  If anyone has seen this mani floating around, please let me know where, as I would like to credit the person if I was actually inspired by them!

I will be back on Wednesday with some freehand nail art I did over the weekend, that I absolutely loved.  I realised I have been doing waaay too much stamping recently, so I wanted a change, and it really paid off.  (I think so anyway, we shall see on Wednesday)
Hope you all enjoyed your weekend, and Monday wasn't too hard on you!
