31DC2015 Day 01: Red – Love / Hate

Red is the colour associated with Love. So this inspired my first entry for this year’s 31 Day Challenge. I guess with Love, the other extreme is Hate so I drew some inspiration from vintage tattoo art and settled on a Love / Hate hand set.

31DC2015 - Red - LOVE

 

I painted with OPI’s Red Hot Rio as the base, stamping some lips with Mundo de Unas Reddish. After allowing it to dry I did a rapid attempt at freehanded typography with white polish and a skinny tip tool. A little gluggy, but for a one day wear, it will suffice.

    Ooooooh these are freehand! That’s amazing! From the thumbnail in the inlinkz I was sure the lettering was stamped.

      Cheers! Funny you should say that, because when I was doing them I actually realised that one thing I don’t have is a lettering stamp.

      Thanks. I felt like doing something different to kick it off cos I’ve had so little time for nails lately.
