Feeling crabby

Crabby?

Nahhh I don't mean I'm a grump today but there's a cute little visitor on my ring finger ;) 

I haven't done nautical nails in almost a year. Back when I first started I came out with these babies and I was darn proud of them!! So I figured it was time for another go at some nautical nails and I'm wondering why I waited so long!

I started with a base of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls and then painted some free hand thick stripes with some navy blue acrylic paint. On my ring finger I took some red, white, and black acrylic paint to draw out my little crabby friend :) Top coat it all with some Poshe and I was good to go! 





I like how the lines aren't really crisp this time because I feel like it gives is a more 'sea-like' feel.... if that makes any sense at all -_- I'm definitely going to do some more nautical nails in the future... maybe with some anchors! ;) 

 Thanks lovelies!

    I like the sorta watered down feel to your lines, and the crab is so sweet!

      Thanks so much Alexandria!! I think the watered down lines gives it more of a beachy feel :)

    This is so cute! I love the simple nautical white/blue stripes, and that crab is an adorable addition! :)
