It's a work in progress...


I know, it's been entirely too long without new content. I'd love to blame it on something interesting (like all the craziness that's been going on at my house...) but one of the main reasons is because I'm sort of obsessing over a new technique.

I'd read about it online, and wasn't quite sure how it would work. So, for the past week I've been experimenting lots, trying to figure out why it works, how it works, and how I can present it so that other people can get some useful tips to make it work for them. Unfortunately, I've only got it working maybe 3 out of 5 times, so that's not enough for me to write a tutorial on it.

However, that doesn't mean I can't show a quick teaser, to give you an idea of what I'm doing. It's interesting, and gives you a glimpse of what my nails look like when I'm in the middle of developing a process. So, without too much more blabbing, here are the pics. I'm getting closer to making it work!

Sometimes blogging is hard!

    1. Thanks! Yea, this is what I do when I'm experimenting. I often end up with a different design on every finger, and sometimes they don't match at all. It can take a while to work out a new technique, and this one has taken me probably 5-6 hours of hands-on practice, not to mention research and design.

      It sure is fun, though!

    1. Sure! It's actually not my strongest skill either, but I can share what I know, and what I do. :D
