Pink and Green and Yellow - OH MY!!

I was messing around with my striping tape again and came up with a really wild design. I started by painting my nails white then sponging on pink, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. After putting on a top coat, it looked almost water colory...... I loved it!! It was really hard to cover it up with striping tape and polish, but the end result turned out awesome.

What I used for this Mani:
Nail Magic Strengthener
One Coat China Glaze - White on White
Very Small Sponge Pieces
Sinful Colors - Pink
Nina Ultra - Orange Flame
Kleancolor - Funky Yellow
Sinful Colors - Irish Green
Nina Ultra - Blue Blaze
DEB - Purple
Striping Tape
Sally Hansen - Black Diamond
Top Coat of Seche Vite

Here are some pics:






Hope you enjoyed and thanks for looking!

ST PATRICK'S DAY - DAY LATE, DOLLAR SHORT!!

Sorry for the late post. I have two mani's to share. I tried to do the very popular four leaf clover water marble mani which was pretty ambitious for me because it was only the 3rd water marble I had ever done. I ended up almost getting one clover on my ring finger, but went with swirling patterns for the others. I did do something different on the water marble that I LOVE!!!! I used Chapstick around my cuticles and it was a total breeze to clean up.

The other mani was a tutorial I found on youtube at cute polish. I just love this youtube channel because it has very easy to follow tutorials and cute ideas!!

This is what I used on the Water Marble Mani:
Base Coat of Nail Magic Nail Strengthener
One Coat of Finger Paints - Sexy Sundress
Marble of Finger Paints - Sketch N Etch and Sexy Sundress
Top Coat of Seche Vite

Here are the Water Marble Pics:
