30 Day NBA Challenge Day #2-OKC Thunder

Finally got back to my blog, and for Day 2 of the 30 basketball challenge, it's the Oklahoma City Thunder. 
Official team colors: Blue, Thunder Red (Orange), Yellow, Dark Blue, White
Here's the result: 

It's like a patchwork mani. For the colors I used "Blue", "Thunder Red", and "White".

For the base, I used one coat of NYC Times Square Tangerine Creme.


Make sure it is almost completely dry before the next step.

Using scotch tape (after taking away some of the stickiness), I taped off the bottom corner, and painted over the open area with NYC French White Tip.



Before the white gets a chance to dry, remove the tape. If you don't, some nail polish might come off with the tape.


Then, do the same thing with the tape and paint over with NYC Empire State Blue. I love this color and I loved the result.



Thanks for looking, and hope you like it as much
 as I did :)

Update

Okay, well I've just logged onto my blog, and the last time I posted was 15 March 2012. It's 27 June! I am really so sorry everyone, it's just that I was busy with the holidays and then, I had surgery on my leg. I was able to do my nails a few times along the way, but I haven't had a chance to post them on here. Last week, I wanted to post some cute manis, but when I put the camera card into my laptop to upload the pictures, it wouldn't work. So until I can get to my friend's house (shoutout to Beverly Z Karam!) to upload them, I won't be posting any manis. :(

So much for that 30 Day NBA challenge. Congrats to the Miami Heat, by the way, for winning in the Finals (even thought I wanted OKC). . . :p
