Black Lace Nails

Here is a simple line drawing design that looks great on all fingers, a few fingers or an accent nail. You could really use any color, but I think a nude base looks best with a black lace design. The color I used was "Shari" by Julep.
To begin, I drew some diagonal lines perpendicular to each other on one corner of the nail for a cross hatching effect. Then I added a scalloped line closer to the center of my nail. To embellish, I added dots on the outside of the scallop and clusters of 3 lines on the highest amplitude parts of the scallop. If you are using a nail art pen and not a striper or toothpick to make your design, it's very important to seal the design with topcoat, or it will rub off! I used O.P.I's regular finish topcoat on mine.
