Summer Challenge: Picnic

Hiya beautiful, I'm back with Day 2 of our Summer Challenge. Today's challenge is "Picnic." To be honest, I had an idea in my head but I couldn't quite get it to work out, so I changed it up a little and went in a completely different direction - cartoon!

I give you - Snoopy Picnic Nail Art!

Snoopy Picnic Nail Art



Products Used:

Sally Hansen White On (creme white for base coat)
Acrylic paints for nail art
Red polish for watermelons (I couldn't find my red acrylic, dang moving boxes!)

This mani is based on a picture I found but I hope my take on it is cool also!

And my doodles .. I was hard at work! You can even see Yogi Bear in there, but he was way too complicated for my little nails! It didn't quite come out the way I had hoped. I just can't get the fine detail where I need it. Maybe I just need to focus on a smaller piece of the picture so I can make it bigger, like zooming in!


Anyway, don't forget everyone else in the challenge - there are some awesome designs on here that I'm tucking away to come back and recreate!

    1. I know, it's so interesting to see different people do different takes on the same challenge/theme. We should do a makeup challenge! I'm going to email you about it!

  10. you're really an artist! translating designs onto nails is always challenging for me too. it's a lot harder perfecting the details with polish >___<
