i found this tutorial off pinterest through sierra. 

it was fun while it lasted.... but the tape does peel off only after a couple days. 

nail transfers

how to make nail transfers? i gotta figure this one out.... 

newspaper nails

finally tried out newspaper nails. did it again with a nice seafoam green color. i get a lot of compliments. so easy. try it out!

directions:

 1- cut out newspaper pieces big enough to fit your nails. i've noticed using bolder fonts work better. and use black ink with a light or white backround.

2- paint your nails a light color and let them dry.

3- dip one nail at a time into vodka or rubbing alcohol then immediately press the paper on the nail firmly for atleast 30 seconds. take away the paper.

4-once all the nails are pressed with the ink, apply a top coat to seal the ink in so it won't smear.
