I'm going to a birthday tonight and there is a dress up theme - 'army'. I'm not one for spending money on fancy dress costumes that I'll never wear again so I'm going in khaki clothing and mud/face paint, hopefully I'll look convincing!
Fancy dress is always such a great opportunity for me to create some fun and original nail art so I painted my nails in a camouflage pattern to match the theme!
I used MUA Shade 23 as a base. To get the camo effect, I painted on random patches using BYS Fern, Barry M Mushroom and W7 Black. The insignia was created with black acrylic paint and Barry M Gold Foil.

ReplyDeleteYou have the symbol upside down. Sargent (and all the rest) go ^ not v (if that makes sense), unless you're painting from your perspective, looking down at your hands. Either way, that is pretty badass, and I have a teddy those would match, and my husband comes home from leave in a week. Hrmm..ideas. :)
