A Tale of Two Fails...
5:00 AM
OK ya'll I apologize in advance for today's look. Originally I intended to do a tape mani over the look from yesterday and just let the colors peek through. Only thing is I couldn't get any of my striping tape to stick to my nails! So I scrapped that and decided to stamp instead. This cracked stamp looked super cool on the plate but it was much more open than I thought it would be and for some reason the stamp came out very translucent. In a nutshell, I just didn't like it. One thing that's great about top coating in between stamping is...
You can wipe it off and start over!! Over the 4th of July weekend I started playing with free-handed open leopard print and I thought perhaps a little leopard could save this fun base pattern. I actually really liked it and, of course I LOVE fitting leopard into these challenges!! Only thing is when I went to photograph it was storming heavily (again) and all the pictures look so blurry! :( As I'm on a strict time limit to get these mani's in at the moment I didn't have time to wait for it to let up to take better pics but it's a reminder that I need to really work on getting my light box set up and operable. So today you get two fails. :/ Oh well, live and learn. You can still see some awesome art today by following the links below!!

Two for the price of one! Your leopard patterns is awesome! I feel like I'm being left out of a leopard club this week...you guys have rocked the print this week! Okay, that was just too many exclamation marks, haha
ReplyDeleteLeopard prints are so popular this week! Love it! I just wish I could actually free-hand the print. :)
ReplyDeleteI can't get that stamp to work either, and I'm glad, cos the leopard ROCKS!
