Nails inspired By A Gorgeous Book Cover: Deathless by Catherynne M. Valente

"Romantic and blood-streaked, and infused with magic so real you can feel it on your fingertips—Deathless is beautiful." —Cory Doctorow

Do you remember playing outside as a kid and looking for that secret entrance to another world? Maybe near the giant tree with the creepy face in the bark, or the big pink crystal you found in the rock garden. Or maybe if you stare up at the clouds long enough with the just right squint and enough concentration you could find yourself transported to another reality just on the other side of this one.A magical reality both brighter & more wonderful yet darker & more menacing too.
I spent hours doing this sort of thing & reading Deathless somehow reminded me of those hours spent with my own imagination.

For my nails I used American Apparel Poppy & California Trooper as seen here. I added the design with a black Sharpie. It worked pretty well & comes off easily with your polish.

Thanks for reading! I'm not sure how to link to my Goodreads profile, but I'd love to see some of you ladies there too.
