Week of Love Nail Art Challenge - Freestyle/Recreate

Hello everyone and Happy Valentine's Day! Today sees the end of the 5 day Week of Love Nail Art challenge being hosted by Jessica from Be Happy and Buy Polish. If you check out the links from all the posts and the Pinterest board, you will find some fantastic, creative, lovey dovey nail art.

The last prompt was Freestyle/Recreate, so I went with Freestyle to create an old school tattoo style mani. I started with an LA Colors sandy nude with a shimmer - I'd give you the name but its worn off the bottle (oops!). I then painted on the letters with Black Velvet and French White and added the heart using Color Club Art of Seduction which I then outlined with the black. 





I think that along with the chalkboard hearts and crosses I did last week that these are my favourite Valentines nails that I've done this year! They are very me and you can expect more tattoo style nails when my competition length nails arrive in the next week or so, although I think that they are going to be a long term project!

This has been an awesome challenge (perfect length!) and I wish that I'd been able to get more involved. Big thanks to Jessica for hosting and organising! Check out all the other final manis by following the links below! :)

  4. Thanks Emma! After I did this heart, I was kinda sad that I wouldn't be doing any more for a while, even though I was sick of them before!
