NOTD: My FFA Officer Team

Keeping up with my FFA themes this month, here is my officer team! I put FFA on my right thumb and FS on my left for my school. It sure was a challenge painting these faces. I sketched them out roughly first so I kinda knew where I was going. I seriously do not have good drawing skills. I can draw freaky people like this and flowers.
It took my an hour and a half to paint everything. I mixed most of my own colors to customize the skin tones and hair. I even made everyone have eye color! You will notice the strange looking person on my left pinky. Was that on purpose? or was it simply due to being the last nail and I was tired? I'll let you decide...

NOTD: Halloween Town

One of my favorite Halloween movies is Halloweentown. If you've never heard of it, seriously, look it up! Its a Disney kids movie, haha.
I did some nails based off of it! On my thumb I have Benny the tax driving skeleton when he is angry, the magical wand thingy that helps break the spell, and the Jack-o-Lantern that is a figure of the town. I didn't know what else to paint so I just put H and T for Halloweentown.. So creative.... Again, I waited too long to take these pictures and they are a little chipped.

Paint Used:
Americana "White Wash"
                 "Ebony"
                 "Cranberry Wine"

Silly kitty wants to play in my light box.

Day 13: The Paper Gal- Newspaper Transfer

I have never done newspaper print nails, I shouldn't have waited so long, they are cool! I tried to make it look vintage with pretty muted flowers. I really like how it turned out! I didn't do such a good job around my cuticles though.... I have had this one for a few days and the urge to pick at it overcame me. Ugh.... I did cover up more newsprint than I wanted to but at least you can still see it in the background.
