3D Nail Art
Super excited today! My friend bought me a whole bunch of FIMO Nail Art Canes. Can't wait to try them out! And make some 3D nail art :) I have a bunch of different ones than this picture. But they're super tiny so it's so hard to take a good picture >.<
Well, for those who love to do 3D acrlyics, below is a mini tutorial on how to make some super cute designs. I personally don't really use this because I can't stand the smell. But enjoy!

Nail Art Tutorials Found
Well, not only do I have a whole bunch of nail art pictures, I have also collected some nail art tutoirals overtime. The bad news is, they're not in English. The good news is, you don't need to know Japanese nor Chinese. A picture is better than a thousand words.
Here are a few to share:

Nail Art Inspiration
There are days when you just can quite get your head together to come up with a design. So I collected a bunch of pictures (and the collection still increasing) for some inspiration. I just wanted to share them to get our nail juice going.
Of course, depending on what I need to do or where I need to be, I use my inspirations accordingly and dress my hands appropriately.

Nail Art False Assumption
So I was browsing the net and I came across this little blurb:
Fingernails Faux Pas #2: Nail Art I sincerely hope no one orders a hit on me for saying this, but nail art is tacky. A painted flower on one big toe is cute because it's dainty and unexpected, but ten fingers decorated in swiggles, lightening bolts or glued-on cubic zirconias are wrong.
http://beauty.about.com/od/perfectnails/qt/fakenails.htm
This isn't the first time I've heard someone say "nail art is tacky." Truth is, yeah, it can be! But it doesn't need to be. Just like a couch, a lamp, a purse, a shirt... they all have the potential of being called the t word. By picking the right colors and designs, then the "tackiness" can be avoided. You don't have to have a tacky flower on your big toe nor have a bunch of lightening bolts done like a 1st grader on your fingers. That's not nail art, that's nail disaster! When your swiggles are done right or when your glued-on cubic zirconias are used correctly, that becomes nail art.

I don't own any of these pictures. I just simply googled them for comparison. You see the difference?

Leopard French Nail
The finish product:
Tips: Your leopard print will come out better if your brown spots are randomly scattered and your black lines vary in thickness and are a bit more "messy."
I like sticking to the more ordinary colors, but feel free to go wild ^.^
