Requested Nail Art Pics - Argyle

Hi guys :)

This is a suggestion by Sharon On my facebook page. She asked for Argyle. I hope you like it :)


I googled argyle nails and most people had the basic argyle print on most/all nails, so I decided to do something slightly different. I put the basic design on my ring finger and put 1 huge diamond on the rest. I chose these colours as I have a pair of argyle socks in this combo. :D


I didn't want to use striping tape as I like to do completely free~hand stuff but it was late and my first attempt to do a straight line with my art pen ended in disaster... So out came my tape for this part.


I quite liked the look of these nails and will definitely do them again. Thanks Sharon for a great suggestion! :D

P.S. sorry for the blurry pics, I was up late and had bleary eyes so they looked sharp to me at that point! XD

  2. I totally love how these turned out! I never thought to use the striping tape for the lines. I've been waiting for the striping brush I ordered to get here. Maybe I'll try the tape. I'm so happy you used my idea. They really look great. :)
