Here is a tutorial on how to do these so cute "Girly Mummies" I love these little gals. They are a way cute twist to the traditional Halloween Mummy Nail art.
Last year I did hot pink as a background to the mummies that everyone and their mom was doing.
These were simple to do beside the bow. That was probably the most technical part. If you have fimo bows this would be a cool way to use them. I wanted to give the mummies a vintage look by creating a marble look using the Saran wrap technique. Get Nailed shows you how to do that
here.
Well here's how to do them:
Step 1:
Paint your nails a bright pink color
Step 2:
Using a
saran wrap technique add a lavender color on top of your pink
Step 3:
With a black striper add lines to created a weave-like pattern
Step 4:
With a black polish use the polish brush to draw a thick line across the lower part of your nail.
Then with a large dotting tool add large white dots close to each other in the center of the black bands.
Step 5:
With a white striper add a small bow at the corner above each band. Add a white dot in the center of each bow.
Step 6:
With black polish and a dotting tool add small black dots inside of each white dot to create eyes
Step 7:
With a stirper add an outline to define the bows.
Step 8:
Finally, clean up around the cuticles and add a top coat...and then you're done!
