Oh im pleased that somebody has tried this and has found it easy. It does look really good. I shall have to try now xx
 
I love it how do u apply it ? Can you use gel ?:)
 
Do you think it would work to transfer it onto the inhibition layer of shellac just before top coating?

Im not sure about Shellac or Gel as i have only tried nail varnish, i suppose if the Shellac or Gel can withstand a spray of hygeine spray then it can be done, why not try it on one nail, you deff will need a carefully applied top coat of something to stop it rubbing off tho.
 
I noticed on the video she was using 70% Isopropyl alcohol, so would our D-sperse work I wonder or would it be too harsh as it's 99%? Hmmmmm

So just thinking off the top of my head whether you would do a complete Shellac (or Gel), remove inhibition layer, then do the print with the alcohol, then another top coat??

Yes that's exactly what I would do... My Son's School Pics are in the local paper this week.. maybe I can put his face on my nails ... how funny would that be? :lol:

I'm sure it would work the way kelibabe88 has mentioned too... don't see why not :)

My other half has gone away this morning for 2 weeks so I thin I'm going to have a little play tonight :)
I'll let you know how it goes putting it onto the inhibition layer of Shellac :)

Love the newspaper nail art but wondered if you could do it with shellac?

LOL, I love it when we get all excited about trying out new things! :) xx
 
Haha I've just STOLEN a newspaper page from one of the boys at work....don't worry - I left him the sports page and as it's the sun I left him with page 3 too!

Thanks kelibabe, looking forward to the outcome. I'm wondering if you still use rubbing alcohol? C
 
That c was supposed to be x. Duh!
 
I've just tried this and I love it! And the only thing I had in the house to spray onto my nails was pre wax and it worked great! Think I'll be keeping a bundle of newspaper cut outs in my nail desk :) xx

Im pretty sure im being thick but how do you get the print the right way round? Mine is back to front!

I don't think you can get it the correct way round. Just wondering if some website will reverse text, then print it of yourself? Might take a look today. Any news about whether it works with Shellac?
 
Just wondering if you can do the newspaper nail art with shellac and do you use rubbing alcohol?
