Dream catchers and Feathers

Hello readers !
 Like i mentioned in my last post, Im very behind and going to play catch up :)
So this particular design, i have seen floating around the internet nd sites and i decided, i had to try it ! It looks so nice and is fairly simple to do.
 It does take a little bit of a steady hand, which i actually dont have :p And it wasnt that hard to do.

 
The colors i used for this nice dsign are...
 
SALLY HANEN - MINT
SALLY HANSEN
STRIPE RITE - BLACK
STRIPE RITE - WHITE
SALLY HANSEN - CARDINAL
SALLY HANSEN - LIGHTNING
SALLY HANSEN
 
Step by step on how i achived this....
 
STEP 1
To start, apply your base coat and then you colors. the mint and purple.
 
STEP 2
On the mint colored fingers, to make the dream catchers. make you half circles with the black stripper. make 3 lines down your nails for the tails.
 
STEP 3
for the webbing of the dream catcher, make 3 little arches, on top of those, put 2, the 3 then 2. Its the simplest way i found.
 
STEP 4
now for details. take your dotting tool, or tooth pick, and apply 3 dots inside the webbing for beads. on the tails, i put 2 on the ends and 3 in the middle.
Dream catches, done !
 
STEP 5
for your fathers, make a slightly curved line on your accent nails with your black stripper. now, make quick little line on your line to make the feather. leave a little at the end.
 
STEP 6
Finishing your feathers, take your white stripper, and make even fewer smaller lines on your black likes. this accents you feather.
Add details, i put 2 dots on the ends of them for beads and 2 little strings.
 
DONE
