Denise Heavner (@denisejohn65) of Jefferson, Ohio, shows how to make this mixed-media nail art.

1. Prep nails for gel-polish application. Apply one layer of a tan gel-polish, cure, then clean.

2. Apply glue then apply burlap ribbon and skeleton leaf cut to size.

3. Apply a thin layer of clear sculpting gel, then apply dried flowers and cure.

4. Cap the design in sculpting gel to encase the design. Cure and clean. Shape, file, and buff then top coat with a gel top coat and clean.
