Dun dun dun dun dun dun SHARK WEEK!

Hey all! So I'm aware I have just missed shark week but having seen lots of lovely shark themed nail art over the last week I couldn't resist adding some of my own. I was inspired by Happily Polished on Instagram to try this grey shark look. I've always gravitated towards doing shark nails on blue. Looking at it now it seems obvious to do grey shark nails but I hadn't thought of it and I like it!

I started with a base of grey on my index and little fingernails and silver on the rest. I then added a sprinkling of silver glitter over the grey nails. While this was drying I used a multi-shark image from Uber Chic's Just Beachy stamping plate to add a white shark pattern on my thumb and ring fingernails. I used the same plate to layer up a toothy shark image, and then used a dotting tool to add eyes. The contrast isn't strong but I'm glad it's enough to be visible.

In conclusion I rather like these, I'm glad I got the eye placement right and am enjoying the various elements of the look. Chomp chomp!
