This weeks theme in Artsy Wednesday is a taped mani - and I never tried it before.
I decided to play around with a mani ready to be taken of to practice. But because I'm lazy and wasn't too unhappy with the result - this is my take on a taped mani.
The mani below the taped mani is THIS ONE (yesterdays post)- and I created random patterns with thin striping tape. Then I painted each nail at the time with China Glaze Hey Sailor - and immediately pulled the tape of, one string at the time. Finally I top coated with Seche Vite.
Check out what the other girls in Artsy Wednesday did in this weeks challenge:
Michelle - Lab Muffin, Alanna - Pretty Purple Polish, Melanie - Nail & Polish, Jessica - Beauty Gnome, Emily - An Accent Nail, Catrine - Unnakednails, Ameerah - Valiantly Varnished, not this week: Jean - Laquered Lunatic,
