Valentine's Nails!

I didn't post my Seahawks nails, evidently, but they turned out pretty cool...  Kinda bummed!  But it worked, since we destroyed!  Woo, Superbowl Champions!  So intense that our host was crying!  And after the nail biting game (just kidding, there was no nail biting whatsoever!) my nail polish was already annoyingly chipped and looked a bit rough.  Oh well.

Anyway, I saw these cool nails the other day, and knew I wanted to try them.

Fun, not too scary hard, and festive!  Image via Brides.com
I loved the idea, but thought it might be overwhelming to do all my nails (or just impossible, since my left hand is not very steady!), so I wanted to do just the ring finger accent.  And I switched up the colors a little, to white, pink, and a dark burgundy (that looks almost brown or black, a little darker than I intended)

Here's the result!  (all following photos personal)

And right hand!



I just noticed, after looking at the photos, that I already have a little chip!  Argh.  But no big deal.

Overall I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out!  I wish the red was more of a bright red, and maybe that the lines were a liiiiitle smoother...

Now if only there was an easy way to rotate photos in blogger....
