Na Na Na Na.....

I'm so in love with these!  These are my prototypes (poorly attached with blue tack but you get the idea!)

This is my first foray into shaping, I wanted something a little 'different' that was still wearable.  I've seen some amazing shaped nails over the years but I have to wonder how the wearer copes with them for any length of time.  Shaping the thumb nail hopefully means you can still function with reasonable normality whilst wearing something a bit different.

I'm currently bursting with shaping ideas!!

Flaky..

Yes, I know!  I've been incredibly flaky of late.  I've had a few issues at home to deal through and with Christmas and holidays etc the blog has taken a bit of a back seat.  Anyway, New Year and a resolution to be slightly more productive!

Firstly, I stumbled on this last night....

Fame at last!  I have lost count of the number of websites like Pinterest and Tumblr I have seen my work on, annoyingly the Potter nails were amongst the first I completed so I didn't watermark them anywhere near as well as I should have and helpfully MSN cropped out my credit.  Oh well, WE know who's work it is don't we?

I've started playing around with some new designs today, Easter Eggs and chicks will be arriving soo, along with Smaug and Bees, but in the meantime I'll leave you with a prototype Batman thumb nail ;)

Superhero Nail Art take two

The last in todays trio, this will also feature in my Etsy store:

This time I have included the extra sized thumbs.  We have The Thing, Hulk, Thor, Green Lantern, Superman, Fantastic 4, Batman, Spiderman, Iron Man, Wonder woman, The Flash, Captain America.

These were created with a mixture of nail polish and Acrylic paints and sealed with several top coats.
