Freakin awesome Friday nails!

It's Friiiiiidaaaaay!  Yay for weekend!

I'm liking these nails....for once.  I think other than dots I like geometric type nails. 


I used Quo by Orly in 'Blue Skies' for the base colour.  I believe I only used two coats.  The polish is getting pretty think though so I think it's time for thinner!  For the black triangle thingies I used a nail art brush. In the past I probably would of used tape but now that I have brushes I prefer to use them.  It's so much less time consuming.  Of course I had to use striping tape on for the final look.  Not only do I like the look of striping tape but it helps give it a nice crisp clean look.  It was my first time using white.  As you can seen it's a little transparent.  It's not quite as noticeable in person so I'm willing to live with it. :o)

  5. This is such a cool pattern! I've never used striping tape, is it expensive? I like the clean look of the lines. :)

    1. It's not to bad. I guess it depends on where you buy it. If you get it from Born Pretty is super cheap but takes awhile to arrive. I like Nailpolish Canada but they don't have all the different colours
