Hi everyone! Sorry for the hiatus... I had my 10 year reunion last weekend so I was pretty busy hanging out with old friends and catching up. I feel so old now lol! Work has also been busy unfortunately and I have a longer commute with my new job so it's been a bit harder to find time in my schedule for blogging... I really do enjoy painting my nails and blogging though so I'm going to try to make time!
Anyway today's Twinsie Tuesday theme is "Negative Space." I'm not a huge fan of negative space nails... Sometimes they're okay on other people but I don't think my nails look that great naked so I like to keep them completely covered lol. So I decided to do a design with some stamping over the empty areas so it's not so bare looking. This was inspired by this mani by Andi Colour Your Life.
I started with Duri Rejuvacote as my base and stamped with Pueen plate SE02A and Konad black stamping polish.
I added top coat and once that was dry I applied chevron nail vinyls from Born Pretty Store. Use my code SL10K31 for 10% off! Then I painted over the vinyls with Color Club Nail-Robi, peeled off vinyls, cleaned up and added topcoat :)
What do you think of negative space nails?
Don't forget to show the other Twinsies some love!

ReplyDeleteI like negative space and your design. I think I made something similar but haven't published it yet - it was in indigo colour.
