10 Day/Week Challenge - Inspired by a Book...Cover
For this mani, I spent a long time thinking about some of the books I've read over the past few years that I really enjoyed, and tried to come up with some nail art ideas. As I was looking at my copy of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, I was inspired by the cover. I think the design turned out to be pretty cool. I painted my nails yellow first with Spoiled Did I Dye It Too Blond? and then stamped over it very randomly with Color Club Twiggie. For this I used Mash-43 and Mash-49. That doesn't really matter so much as I only took bits and pieces from the stamps with the thin lines and actually tried not to use the whole image. After that I did the same thing using just Mash-49 with Spoiled Jail Bait. I think it turned out pretty cool. Take a look!
Here is an image of the book I used as my inspiration.

That is really accurate. I love the colours!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteThat looks fantastic! Most times when I try "inspire by" nail art, it ends up looking very little like the goal, but your is spot on!
