I would do cocoa with Iced cappucino and black spots if you are looking for the traditional leopard print, Apply Iced Cappucino, cure 2 mins, then apply blackpool dots cure for 2 mins and add the Iced Cap ontop of the black rather than trying to outline with black much quicker that way.

Great thanks Jen I will give that a try, do u think I could get away with fedora instead of blackpool maybe as I have this already? If not more spending ha ha xx

Nicola, we post pics so you can immulate what you see. From there, your own creativity will emerge. You'll probably surpass us one day!:p
 
Every one of those pics are gorgeous girls, you are all so talented and creative. I am slightly jealous!

That was my pink one too lol. Very nice hunni well done.
Glad I helped inspire you, after all thats what sharing is all about and seeing others come up with their own concept is brilliant and makes it all worthwhile.
