How to: Newspaper Nails

I have always loved painting my nails and trying to do designs that stand out like no other. I recently came across a video on how to do a cool, funky nail design using newspaper! i thought it looked awesome and simple to do. i decided to finally try it out myself thinking there was no way this would be possible, luckily my nails turned out looking better than ever! Now i want to share what I've learned with all of you.
Look how cute! With only a few minutes of your time and some patients you can achieve this look(: 

Materials: 
Nail polish (light color)
Scissors 
Newspaper 
Rubbing alcohol
optional- Top coat

Directions: 
1: paint nails and leave to dry (not completely just until they are almost)
2: cut newspaper into 10 small sections just a little bigger than your nail
3: dip the newspaper into rubbing alcohol and press it onto your nail using some pressure for about 10 seconds
4: remove newspaper from nail and apply topcoat 
Now your nails are finished! simple as that(:
