Artsy Aussie Wednesday

This weeks Artsy Wednesday theme was Animal print.
For my first attempt at an animal print I decided to go Natural. I chose a leopard print.

I used 3 colors for this effect :

Sally Hansen's Smooth Perfect color care in Dune was the base color

Essie's Case Study & Sally hansens Nail Growth Miracle in Forbidden Fudge were used to make the print.

I used the end of a paint brush to make various size spots on my nail in Case Study. I then used a toothpick and forbidden fudge to do the darker outline. Very easy & quick even though it looks like a complex pattern.

I am pretty happy with the turn out. I'd like to try it again using bright colors.
