My nails have nearly always been painted ever since I left Secondary School in 2005. Not really a hardcore nail art person. I just play around with different colours here and there. In fact, I've only been to 2 manicures in my life, both experiences were pretty disastrous. Haha, I also stuck on cheap fake nails once and I couldn't text on my phone. Y'know, just for fun.
Anyways, I had this idea that I thought I would try out. It just came to me one night, in the midst of a very medicated slumber. Strange things, I know. I'm a total junkie slash artist, hahaha!
Purple polish (camera can't capture colors for nuts), silver polish & tape! Patience is definitely required too, otherwise you'll end up with a blotchy rough mess like mine. Hmm, I will try to perfect it for CNY! The original idea included 3 colours, but... maybe not for beginners like me.
Tape is a pretty useful & economical tool to use. Then again, it would be awesome to own a stamping kit!
