Cartoon Nails

CARTOON  NAILS!!!

What I Used:

Sally Hansen Base and Top Coat
China Glaze: Pool Party (bright pink)
Opi: Onyx
Nail Art Striper: Black and White
Fine Nail Art Brush
Dotting Tool

After applying the base coat, paint all of your nails black. Remember to get as far to the edge as possible.
The black will be the outline for your nails.

Next, paint all of your nails pink. You will need a few coats to cover the black completely. Remember to leave the black outline along the edges. You want them to be the same width on all sides.

Another Angle.

Last, using a dotting tool and fine nail art brush, paint a white dot on the corner of your nails, then a thin white stripe leading up the dots...to give it that cartoon effect. Apply a top coat...and you're done! 

Strawberry Gingham Nails for the Strawberry Festival in Plant City, Florida

STRAWBERRY 

GINGHAM NAILS!

What I Used: red, light pink, dark pink, green and white polish, Sally Hansen Double Duty Base and Top Coat, fine nail art brush and dotting tools

After applying your base coat, paint your tips white, like a french manicure.

Next, using a fine nail art brush, paint super thin lines with light pink polish.
Three vertical and two or three horizontal.

Using a dotting tool, add a rounded triangle in red polish for the strawberry.

Next, using a dotting tool, dot darker pink circles where the light pink lines cross.  With a fine nail art brush and green polish, add tiny lines on the top of the strawberries, like above.

Last, add three tiny light pink dots to the inside of the strawberry to look like seeds.
Apply your top coat for shine and protection... and you're ready to look super cute!!

Baltimore Ravens Superbowl Nails

GO RAVENS!!

What I Used: 
Nail Art: White Canvas
China Glaze: Gothic Lolita
Opi: Black Onyx
Revlon: Vixen
Nail Art: Silver Lining
Super fine nail art brush

After applying your base coat, paint your thumb, index and pink-y fingers purple. Also, paint your middle and ring fingers black.

Next, using a fine nail art brush, carefully paint two curved purple lines on your middle fingers and one on your ring finger like the photo above. I had to use two coats to paint over the black.

Use red paint to add the half circle under the purple line on your ring finger and the top purple line on your middle finger. I needed to paint two coats of the red two.

Paint a tiny white line inside and towards the top of each of the Raven's red eyes.  Also, some white on the inside of both nails. If you look at the Raven to the right of my nails, you can see they use white for the beak. That is what the white will represent.

Next, paint on a '52' for Ray Lewis on your thumbs.  This was pretty hard. Just take your time.  Use glitter sparkle polish for the index and pink-y nails. And...last, but not least, apply your clear top coat to protect your creation. Now you are ready for the Superbowl.
Whooo! GO RAVENS!  :)
