20: Colourful plaid

Hi Girlies!

I got bored and I decided to play around with my LA Colors Art Deco nail art polishes. They're very nice and really fun to play aound with. This is my first time using a thin striped brush and I think it's very easy to use and control although I will need some more practice making the stripes straighter. For this design I used OPI Alpine Snow as my base colour (this was 3 coats) and then used the nail art polishes to create thin stripes making it a plaid looking pattern. They're very plain and simple to do!





This was taken with a flash. I wasn't entirely happy with the look. I found it to be a bit tacky. So I decided to add 1 thin coat of OPI Happy Anniversary to the design.



Taken with flash. This is the completed look. What do you guys think? Do you like it plain or with the silver glitter?


PS. Tuli from http://tulinail.blogspot.com/ gave me a super duper cute award. And Skye from http://nailz-in-aus.blogspot.com/ also gave me a nail blog award about a month ago. I love it Tuli and Skye thank you so much! I think I'll fill out one of those award things when I have more time :D

PPS. Skye sweetie here's a picture of Pronail Supply.


I was going to take picture of the inside for you but I totally forgot and went crazy choosing all my colours! I swear that place is the same as Disneyland for nail polish addicts. OKOK it sounds amazing which it is but remember that they also might not have everything you're looking for. I hope you find some great treasures!
