Hearts Tutorial

Hey guys! So here is my new tutorial! The gorgeous Bree from http://www.gypsy-glitter.blogspot.co.uk/ asked for a tutorial for 'heart' nail art so here is not one but two easy and effective guides to beautiful looking nail art hearts!!! 

*Another technique that could be used is stamping, but I really am not a fan of this technique and it definitely takes a lot of practice to get it right, however, If anyone would like a stamping tutorial then please feel free to tweet/comment/nag/pester me as much as you like.*

Technique 1.
1. Cut a narrow strip of paper.

2. Fold in half and draw half a heart on the folded edge and cut it out.
3. Trim down one of your stencils to fit your nail and cellotape it down. Make sure your  base coat is completely dry first though!
4. Paint over your stencil.
5. Remove stencil and voila! This technique can be used for any symmetrical pattern!

Technique 2. 
Remember my review on Barry Ms nail art pens? Well you guessed it they are back again!!! As easy as it is to do technique one, I personally think its easier to get out your pens and simply draw the design on yourself! 



So there you have it folks! That was my easy-peasy guide to doing your own nail art hearts!
