Week #15: Newspaper Nails
Newspaper stamped nails are a real classic! And the best is that it is quick and easy to make: Just apply two coats of base color (white and light grey are the most used), then wet your nails on alcohol (any kind of alcohol is ok as long as it is clear) for around 10 seconds. Once wet, press firmly a piece of newspaper (make sure it is a printed piece of newspaper) for almost half a minute without move it to then remove it slowly. After repeat the whole procedural on each nail, you need to apply a clear top coat and it is ready.
In this case I added an extra detail: I divided the nail with a perpendicular glittery line from one of the top side of the nail to the middle of the opposite side of the nail. then I painted the top part with a coat of silver nail polish.
that's all~

Week #9: Caramel & Cream Nail Design
This was supposed to be a bar of chocolate covered with dripping cream, however, now that I look at it closely I think it looks more like caramel than chocolate... so sad I prefer chocolate~
Materials
-Chocolate Nail Polish
-Caramel Nail Polish
-Grey Nail Polish
-White Nail Polish
-Masking Tape
-scissors
-Clear top coat
Instructions
apply two coats of caramel polish over you nail and let them dry, then cut 1mm to 2 mm wide strips and stick them to your nails like in this pic:
After this apply a grey coat and then a chocolate coat and let them dry. Finally, and using white polish, draw drops of "cream", making sure each nail is different from the others~

Week #8: Hello Kitty Nail Design
She wanted so badly little Hello Kitty's heads on her little nails that I had to make this for her, and yes, that's her finger!
Materials
- White Polish
- Black Polish
- Yellow Polish
- Dark Pink Polish (Or any similar color)
- Purple Polish
Instructions
Draw a medium sized white oval at the top of your nail like the one you can see on pic "1". After that draw a little rounded triangle at the top of your oval and repeat this step as you can see on pics "2" and "3". Then draw two black dots and a single yellow dot on the middle (pic 4), and three lines at each side as it can be seen on pic "5".
Finally you need to draw two opposite pink rounded triangles and a purple circle in the middle of them as it is shown on pics "6" and "7" and you have your little Hello Kitty's Head
And this is the result!!
I think they are really really cute!!
And without drawing ribbon and maybe changing the colors you can easily get a common cat for a different design
