DIY: Aztec and Splatter Paint Nails.Together?

NOTE: In order to create this beautiful nail art you need stripers and dotting tools.
 
Recently, meaning the other day I saw on Instagram a picture of an Aztec nail print. I figured I would try it. I couldn't be that bad at it. So I decided I would and I did. Comment on how I did please. I would like constructive criticism only.

STEP 1: Pick a solid color to be your base coat. I chose two colors. Even though you can't see it a lot, It may come in handy.

STEP 2: With your black striper draw a line from one end of the nail to the next. 

STEP 3: This is where you can have a little fun. Pick a few colors that you think look good together, but make sure they are on the darker side of the color wheel with a more earthy feel.

STEP 4: Use the stripers and dotting tools to create and Aztec feel. I don't think giving so many steps is fun so feel free to step away from the boundaries of steps.
 

So basically what happened when I got to the other hand is that I realized I couldn't do all of this detail unless I was super talented with my left hand. So... what I did was I used the same colors for base at the other hand and went crazy.

STEP 1: Remember to use the same color for base.

STEP 2: Use your dotting tools with every neon bright color you have and press lightly onto your dries nail to create a splatter feel.

STEP 3: Go crazy with color. Because I didn't search this up or anything I think of this one as my own idea.

NOTE: In-between the base and additional steps just remember to let the base dry or else you will end up with really messy nails.

Happy Crafting!:)
