NOTD: Leopard Print Mani

I am actually VERY proud of this manicure.  It's one of my favs to date!




I used Leighton Denny Healthy Glow which is the nude shade and Leighton Denny Viva La Diva which is the red.  For the leopard spots I used Leighton Denny On The Rocks and highlighted with Models Own Black nail art pen:










What do you think?  This is my first attempt at a leopard mani and I think I may become ADDICTED!  


It was also my first time using a nail art pen too and I was impressed at how versatile that lil thing was!  I was worried the polish was gonna spill everywhere or you needed a 'knack' but it was fine!  I need to learn how to have a steadier left hand with the striper brush though - could not for the life of me get the angle right!!!
