BBC Children In Need Manicure

Evening all!

Tonight is the main event in the BBC Children in Need calendar but I can't say I ever watch the caberet antics on the BBC throughout the evening lol!... But I do support the cause of providing grants to children's charities and community projects. The stories that come out of this event are truly humbling and heart warming and I always make a donation... And I painted my nails following this year's 'Be A Hero' theme...

I started with three coats of each of the three base colours and then used nail art pens to add Pudsey's features and bandana to the yellow nail. Next I used a dotting tool and the various colours to pop on the bandana spots. On the blue nail I wrote 'Be A' with a white nail art pen, and used the same pen to draw out 'Hero' before topping in the yellow polish twice with a nail art brush. I took that same brush to paint in the star with the blue and topcoated it all.

I'm pretty pleased with how this turned out, I had a few wobbles along the way but managed to save it and I was quite impressed with my patience with it hahaha! I'm really finding a lot of enjoyment in freehand work at the moment... Long may it continue!
