31DC2013 - Day 3: Yellow

I had several ideas for yellow! After searching for some inspiration online, I decided to turn my fingers into mini Chucks! I have wanted a pair of yellow Converse high tops for quite some time, but have had no such luck in getting them. Yet. So, I thought I would make some! Of course, it's not the same, but this will work for now! :) Before I even begin, I will say that I thought these were cute overall, but I am really disappointed in how some of the lines turned out! Oh well, not too bad for a first time, I'll say! I'm really loving this challenge, and my reason to practice nail art! For this mani, I used Studio M Neon Caution, Sinful Colors Snow Me White and Studio M Darkest Black. Oh, and Rimmel London French Tip White. I started out with Snow Me White as the base: 
Sinful Colors Snow Me White


After painting the white base, I added in the yellow. I went about 3 quarters of the way down the nail with the yellow, to leave space for the white tip, the "rubber." After the yellow, the next step was super simple. Using my dotting tool, I added 6 black dots to each finger, to make the eyelets for the laces to "go through."
I thought they looked kinda cute already! I used the french tip white to make the laces. That was a lot easier than I thought it would be!
Last but not least, I used a black striping brush for the final lines, to complete the "shoe." Tell me what you think!
