Good evening everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful evening! Tonight I am dropping in to share one of my latest nail art looks thanks to Born Pretty Store and their nail vinyl stencils. I have been using vinyls for quiet some time now and I love the fun looks you can create with endless color options so when I saw Born Pretty Store offered stencils, I had to give them a try. Sadly, I had nothing but trouble. I just couldn’t get them to lay right and get crisp lines. I’m not sure what I did wrong but after multiple attempts, I had to scrap the full design idea and use the left over wavy strips for nail art.
For my ladybug/vintage dress look I started off with three thin coats of Turks & Chaos by Chaos & Crocodiles. Next I used vinyl wavy strips from Born Pretty Store and Storm by Zoya to create wavy black tips. I didn’t care for just the black tips so I next used a medium sized dotting tool and Storm to create some dots. The look ended up having a ladybug feel or as my BFF Krise pointed out, a vintage party dress. I sealed everything with two coats of Marvel Liquid Macro Top Coat by SuperChic Lacquer.
So what do you guys think of my ladybug/party dress nails using Born Pretty Store vinyls? I love the color combo!!! I really wish the vinyls had worked out better because these colors in a wavy chevron type pattern would have looked awesome! You can pick up tons of great products from Born Pretty Store and remember to use code AEL91 for 10% off you order. Thank you so much for stopping by tonight and I will see you all again tomorrow.

Is gorgeous. The color combo is just perfection.
