Then and Now Nails: Animal Print

Another look back at some animal print nail art I did back in the summer of 2010, my stamping skills clearly have improved however my choice of topcoat needs reassessing!

Sunday Stamping: Birth Stone

The glowing ruby shall adorn,
Those who in July are born;
Then they'll be exempt and free
From love's doubts and anxiety.

Seeing as my birthday is in July that makes my birth stone Ruby. If only wearing a ruby helped with all doubts and anxieties! Anyhow on with the nails...
