The Nightmare Before Christmas - Jack and Sally
Hello, Fireflies!
For my last NCC Stripes challenge of the month, I wanted to incorporate stripes and one of the most popular Halloween traditions - watching The Nightmare Before Christmas.
This mani was inspired by one I saw on Pinterest, but I cheated and used a 3-D charm for Jack's face.
I painted all but my middle finger with Revlon Spirit, and then used a black striper to freehand the black stripes. The middle finger was painted with Milani Black Swift, and then the charm was applied.
Bottle shot: Revlon Spirit, Milani Black Swift, and a black striper.
What's Jack without his girl?
This was inspired by a mani done by The Nailasaurus, but it reminded me of Sally.
I started off with a white base to make sure that the colors were bright. Then, I used striping tape to mark off the different sections. Even thought it would be nice to paint one color at a time, it dries too quickly for that - and dry polish gets pulled off with the striping tape. So, do one nail at a time. I painted over the white lines with black polish and made the stitches, too.
Bottle shot: Revlon Spirit, Nails Inc Bond St., Wet 'n Wild Pleasure Pier, Urban Decay Bang, Finger Paints Go Van Gogh!, and a black striper.
Wouldn't it be neat to have one hand done like Jack, and the other like Sally?
