Doctor Who Collaboration Mani!

A bunch of us bloggers got together for the premier of the new season of Doctor Who to do Doctor Who-themed manis! I am a true, die-hard Whovian, so this was right up my alley...

Except...

I really am NOT good at nail art. Hrmmmm...what to do? Well it's Doctor Who, so I had to give it a shot! Hopefully the rest of you Whovians will cut me some slack with the "nail art" attempt. ♥ So, please be nice!

I initially thought I'd cheat and pull out this older photo from when I got my iPhone case. The Scottish flag could be in honor of MY Doctor, David Tennant, the Scot.





But I decided to give it a real try, so I started with a blase of Nails Inc. Tudor Way...


Nails Inc. Tudor Way as my base

Then I built up "galaxy nails" and a vortex on the thumb with one of the Dr. Who logos on the accent nail. I was fairly happy with the galaxy nails, but I streaked the logo with my top coat. Always too impatient!












Then I decided to see what kind of job I did when I was practicing when I first found out about the collaboration...





I decided it didn't really make much difference. Practice did not "make perfect" for me. Hahaha! But I had fun trying.
