Materials:

Rubbing alcohol or vodka
10 Strips of newspaper (big enough to cover each nail)

Clear top coat polish

Process:

Polish your nails with your desired coats and let dry
Pour some rubbing alcohol/vodka in the small glass
Dip your (dried) nail in the rubbing alcohol/vodka (make sure you wet whole nail)
Place and press a strip of the newspaper on your nail and hold firmly but careful for 30 seconds. (do NOT Move the strip around)
Remove strip and repeat on each nail or a select few nails if desired
Finally, polish your nails with a good clear top coat to seal the deal.
