Happy Easter

Happy Easter Everyone 
and if you don't celebrate, 
Happy Sunday!

I wanted to do a Easter manicure that was not obviously Easter but more celebration of spring!

 Kinda look like Easter eggs

 Here are the supplies I used.

Base Coat: Nail Life Gripper
Pink: Essie A Crewed Interest
Yellow: Ulta Cream of the Crop
Green: Essie Navigate Her
Blue: Hard Candy Sky
Top Coat: Seche Vite
Nail Art Brush
Cuticle Scissors
Gold Nail Striping Tape
 ( I got the tape off of Ebay, it was a set of I believe 12 different colors)

 I first painted all my nails with the yellow since it took 3 coats to get opaque.
 I then started hand painting the other three colors. I purposely put some of the lines thicker and some  thinner. I did not want them all the same size.
 I did not get the lines perfectly straight but with putting on the striping tape its ok. It is able to hide that little but of waviness from me not getting straight.

I used the cuticle scissors to be able to trim the tape as close to nail as possible. 
I then put a couple coats of top coat on top to seal in the tape and to even the feel out.


What do you think?
I think it came out super cute! 
Can't wait to do with other combinations of polish and tape.
