I know, I know. Don't be sad. I'm here w/pics of Day 7's mani! I would have loved to have posted yesterday but I was at work from 0630 to 2130. It was quite a long day and I was lucky to get some sleep last night before work again this AM. So that's why the mani is late. However, I painted this the night before and wore it for a couple days in honor of Alabama's homecoming game today. Which, might I add, UA just beat Vandy 34-0. Crazy awesome. Okay, back to the nails.
Today's theme was Black and White and I went with an iconic look that has become associated with UA because of Paul "Bear" Bryant. Houndstooth. It's everywhere. On everything. And now, I've made a statement with it too. It says, ROLL TIDE ROLL! I have gotten so many compliments on this look. I've had a lot of ladies at work ask me how I did it or if I got it done at a nail shop. They seem impressed when I tell them I did it. Anyway, here they are!
What do you think?
I think they're pretty good...I've done this stamp before and it worked much better this time around. It's not perfect but it looks decent at a distance.
| I used the following: 2 coats of White on White by China Glaze Konad Special Black is the stamp color and I used a Konad plate for the design. Covered [of course] with 1 coat of SV. RTR! |
| Pointer finger close up. You can see imperfections in the stamp but it's def not noticeable from a distance. |
| It was such a beautiful day here in Tuscaloosa. Thought I'd show you my view of the Black Warrior river. |
| You can see a part of the design missed the tip of my ring finger [far left]. Oh well, I'm not perfect...neither are my nails. |
So, that is my Black and White. Iconic pattern for a man that will always be a hero. Day 8 post coming up...
