Inspired by my notebook

If you follow my instagram (@kelsiesnailfile) you may have noticed my new "idea book" I picked up from wal mart a few weeks ago. I got tired of having a million sticky notes lying around with ideas for manicures and schedules for posting so I decided to pick up a notebook to keep my thoughts organized.

And being the nail art obsessed girl that I am, I immediately saw a potential manicure :)

I started with a base of Revlon Embody, stamped with special konad black and BM-322. Then I used scotch tape and added Revlon Seduce.

The red looks a little to orange in the photos.. it was difficult to capture it under artificial lighting (my only option lately due to the miserable foggy weather)

And here's a shot of the houndstooth by itself...

And the notebook that inspired it all...
