Good morning everyone! I'm back with a new challenge! This week's theme is a book cover... any cover that you'd like!
Preferred file size: 7" WIDE x 5.25" TALL @ 72 dpi
If you do not know how to crop and resize your image, let me know and I will gladly do it for you! It is better that I get a photo too large so I can minimize it to the size I need, rather than a photo too small. Photos that are smaller than the size I request will lose a lot of detail and become fuzzy when I enlarge them!
Oooh, great idea! If I had any talent for nail art I would love to do the Half Blood Prince's adult cover or the new Wicked cover! *hint hint*
Oh those sound fun! I'm not sure what I'll do yet... All I have lying around is books on photography, html code, and graphic design. Hmmmm?
does it have to be like a novel or could we use other books like a kids picture book or something like that or recipie book?
Courtney- You can use any book that you'd like! You just have to use the book cover as inspiration for your nail design :)
Sounds like fun! Kind of funny also because my last challenge entry actually matched the cover of the book I was reading at the time (Dreamfever) & I meant to take a pic to include on my blog & forgot LOL. I've got a full bookshelf & several out from the library, the hard part will be choosing which to use =)
Oh, man!!! This one is gonna be hard!! Though, the hubs has *quite* a selection of comic books. Does that count as a book?
Fantastic idea! Would graphic novels/comic books be ok? I just bought a new one with an amazing cover, seriously, it is SO captivating.
Colette- I know! It will be tough :) I'm going to try to find the most interesting book cover I have... one with crazy colors, hopefully!
Megan & Jade- It can be ANY book! The only requirement is that it has to have a cover! :)
I love that idea, I'll have to go through my books now ^^
I am going to give this one a go! (Really, really this time! lol I have the next 3 days off) but I just have to find a book cover...
Hehe I didn't see Megan's question! Awesome... ooh I'm excited now xD
Glad this challenge is getting you guys excited! I can't wait to see the entries for this one!!
Yes!! My excuse has finally arrived!! I look forward to this one - thankies for considering and ultimately using this idea!!!
Delaynee- No, thank YOU for such a great idea! I like that everyone will be doing the same thing but it will be very personalized based on their book choice! I'm so excited to see what everyone does!
Fun!! I don't physically have the book cover I want to use. I have a nook now. Is it cheating if I just add a pic of it? Or should I photograph my nails in a bookstore?? :)
Liz- LOL... well, don't inconvenience yourself by going to the bookstore just to take a picture of the book with your nails. Unless, of course, you need an excuse to go to there:) If you can't find the book, it is okay if you create a collage of the cover and your nails.
I agree with everyone else....this idea is amazing:) now i just have to go through all my books to see what I can find to do:S
Great idea! I hope there'll also be magical and playful fairytale nails inspired by children's books - if not, you could make it its own theme some time :)
DONE! I went for a cover that always drew my attention but I went simple and very direct. Maybe next challenge i will go a little more extreme:)
I went simple too bluestars...for a change lol.
I am up way past my bedtime but I just finished mine & am in love. Having a little trouble getting a decent pic actually with the book cover but I hope to have a good one to send in tomorrow =)
sweet i managed to find time to do a mani, now all i need to do is watermark and sent it off!
