Artsy Wednesday - Stripes

Hello girls!  This week's Artsy Wednesday's theme was stripes! As I haven't got the most steady hand I opted for Zebra stripes!


Pic without flash:


I used Barry M black and Barry M Boots Limited Edition:


I then used for the stripes, Models Own nail art pens in black and white:


The white base on the thumb nail is Leighton Denny, Pure White and the silver polka dots on the middle, ring and pinky fingers were created using a dotting tool and Nails Inc's silver, Royal Mews.

I love this design!  It was quick too because I had painted my nails with a base coat in the morning so I literally started straight away with colour and the whole thing took twenty mins!  Love it when a mani comes together! ;)
