A zebra changing its spots! :p

Hello everyone! I've been looking at this mani and trying to figure out how to fit it into one of my challenge prompts for about a week now with no success whatsoever! But as I liked it, I decided to share it anyway, despite the fact that I can't really make it fit in anywhere!

The idea originally started out as a stripes and dots mani when the "bright" idea struck me to make it zebra stripes and dots instead... Obviously :/

I started with a French White base and then added in the zebra stripes with a striping brush using Barry M Greenberry. I then dotted in between all the stripes with Color Club Wicker Park before finishing with Seche Vite.






I must say that I really like the way this turned out and I love these two colours together. Happy accident manis are my favourite! :)
