The Simsons! Green Goddess Nail Decals


Here we go! Another creation using my fave nail decals from Green Goddess Creations, and the link to these awesome sauce decals is here. Lelia is wonderful, and has been so great to work with I'm happy to refer you guys to her shop. She does custom decals as well, so you could even order something for a special occasion.

Here is the base I prepped. This is a base of OPI My Boyfriend Scales walls. I then dotted on the black dots and made my flowing lines around them with watered down acrylics. I used a Q-Tip to soak up extra to give the watercolour effect. Once dry I redid my black dots to keep them crisp. I didn't see this anywhere, so I don't know what to call it...but it's pretty! Watercolour Overflow perhaps? I definately want to play around with this!



Once dry, I used some Seche and moved on to the decals. Since my background was a little darker for these, I painted the image white on the back and allowed that to dry before I applied them. 



I'm going to say Homer looks pretty happy with his new home on my fingers!


This last close up shows the decal fingers. I had a bit of trouble with rippling on Marge because I attempted to shift her too much. The beauty with decals though is that in person you really can't see edges.

Cheers all,
