Hey everyone! Hope you're having a good weekend. I'm excited to share this nail art with you today (when am I ever not excited to talk about nails) as it's one I've wanted to do for aaages and I'm pleased with how it came out. I have a couple of adorable pairs of winter socks with walrus' on them which I got for Christmas a few years ago. I absolutely love getting cute cosy socks for Christmas! I thought the Noel 11 plate from Mo You London would be perfect for creating this sock inspired look as I'm not sure how well I could freehand a walrus!
I started with a base of navy blue and then added the base of the walrus's in white. Next I used Mo You London's Festive 06 plate for the star shapes on my other nails - the image was just the right size with my nails this length! Next I layered up the walrus images piece by piece. The colours aren't quite right but close enough! I left out the jumper bit as the ones on my socks don't have jumpers on. I used a dotting tool to add the top of the little bobble hats the walrus' are wearing. Finished the look with a glossy quick dry top coat. I was intending to mattify this look but I haven't yet as I rather like it the way it is. If I decide to I'll add a picture on my Instagram.
So in conclusion - I love these! I love the colours, the style, the images and the fun of having my nails match my socks! So glad I finally got round to it.
