Stars and arrows funky french and fauxnad

Hi Kids!
I'm back with a full image fauxnad from Bundle Monster plate BM20 along with a bit of Fing'rs nail stickers. I put this on a funky french that I free-handed with Color Club Where's The Soiree. I also layered some shimmer sparkle from I franken I made by mixing equal parts, NYC Love Letters and Revlon Sheer Sparkling Nude over the hot pink base I posted the other day. After adding the stickers, I felt that the fauxnad needed something more, so I dotted colors found in the stickers to accent the centers of the stars.

Although this is not my style, I couldn't help but smile every time I looked down at my nails.

Fauxnad crackle nails





My originial idea for these crackle stamped nails was green cat eye rub ons. I had 2 nails looking cool, when the rub-ons failed to apply properly...probably due to some excess oils on my nails and the dexterity issues I have when it gets cold outside. As careful as I was in taking them off, I tore up the polish on both thumbs. Not wanting to waste a decent fauxnadacure, I covered them with the largest rub-ons I had- Cute ghosts. Not my cuppa-tea, really, but it worked in covering the mess. I also had trouble applying the ghosts, and had to touch up places with an angle brush and black polish. Next time I do rub-ons, I'll get help from dh or my daughter, Amber.

Anyway I really love this crackle image! Here's what I used;
Base- Color Club, Where's The Soiree?
Overlay- Sally Hansen, Black Diamond
Fauxnad plate H22
Stamped with Sally Hansen Insta-Dri, Lickety-Split Lime
Ghost rub-ons have a layer of Nina Ultra Pro, Molten Opal
2 coats Seche
