Arrow and Lace Nails

I've been browsing around looking for some doable lace nail art on Pinterest and I found some things that were inspiring. I didn't actually copy anything that I saw I was just inspired. And once I thought of what I wanted to do I still had 3 days before I'd have time to do my nails so I just constantly thought about it!!! It literally kept me from sleeping one night! I have problems...
So without further ado this is how my nails ended up
I actually love this picture as a whole because of the nail polish in the background.  So cute I think :)
Anyway for my thumb nail I did my version of lace. I used O.P.I.'s "Sorry I'm fizzy today"(pink) as the base then put white over the top at an angle.  I did little designs that turned out to look like little hearts along the top and bottom of my line and then I simply drew lines out from the bottom to make it look like lace. 
I used MissJenFabulous's idea for my pointer finger nail. I think it looks beautiful.
I wanted to do an arrow so I looked around on Pinterest and decided the cutest arrow was the one that went across two nails. I used my new O.P.I. "My signature is DC" silver polish which is as beautiful as it looks in the picture.  From there I did a white arrow and once that was cured I went over it with the pink so the pink was "pinker.."
On my pinky I did a cute "spray" just from the tip of the nail.. super cute I think! My boyfriend was blown away at how good they look. He's so sweet to give me compliments on my nails even though he probably doesn't care at all about them! (He just likes that I'm not paying to get them done!)
