The return of the tape! My last exploit with tape didn't turn out so well but I thought I would try it again.
I started out with OPI Mermaid's Tears... whiiich I apparently accidentally deleted the pictures of. Gah! Here are my original pics of it. Hey, those aren't too bad! Anyway, I started with that and then cut the tape into a bunch of teeny weeny little strips and placed them like so:
Voila
Then I used American Apparel Peacock for the stripes. Yes, it does kind of take forever. But the result is this:
*angels sing*
Although the tape produces rather harsh lines, and it doesn't look so hawt when you first finish.
*angels abruptly stop singing*
But! There is hope yet, young grasshoppers. The first (or maybe not the first, but it's up there) rule of nail polish is that glitter fixes everything. Seee?

I used LA Colors Treasure Chest. How much better is that!? It was a totally beesh to take off but it was sure as heck sparkly!
A mi también, muchacho. A mi también.
