Happy Tuesday, Lovelies!

This week's mani is a take on one I saw on Oooh, Shinies! nail blog, although I didn't have the exact colors she used for the two stripes.

The base polish is OPI "What's With The Cattitude", two coats

The medium stripe is Nicole "Sea You and Raise You", one coat, and

The dark stripe is OPI "Russian Navy", one coat, and a

Square Aqua Crystal added for accent.

This mani looks simple, and basically is simple, but the process, with taping, painting, waiting for the previous coat to dry before adding the next, took literally hours. I used Seche Vite between each color, so that speeded it up some.

Looks surprisingly pretty when worn with any of these blue shades.

No stamping on this one, but I think it's fun for a change. Next time, back to stamping though!

Do you want to start doing taped manis?
