I'm so glad the week is over... It was a hard one and I made a few mistakes that could have been avoided. But as usual... they bother me forever, because of the scolding by my superiors... meh. At least, one day off until Monday. Let's hope the coming week is a tiny bit kinder to me, haha.
Anyway, while I was on vacation last week, I worked on the challenge and finished all the themes except the last one, which I'll probably tackle tomorrow. Today, I'd like to post about theme number 9. The time was "Thirt Quencher" and and first, I wasn't sure what to do, because my favorite would be mineral water. Yes, boring. And the other things I like kinda where close to what I had in mind for theme number 10, Favorite Fruit...
When I posted about my last watermarble attempt, I got a really nice comment from Sue, who recommended me a tutorial and I decided to try once more! A watermarble appeared to be a suiting means to represent a thirst quencher. I chose three of the Woo neon's a colleague brought me from her holiday in Turkey to create the marble.
I first applied white polish to my nails, an unnamed one by Color Club, protected my skin with some vaseline and tried to watermarble just as the tutorial suggested. It worked a lot better than the last time, even though I still need to practice the dipping angle as there are still a couple bubbles.
The colors weren't as bright as I imagined them to be, but I like the overall outcome. I found it to be lacking something to really represent a thirst quencher... remember, mineral water!? I like it sparkly. so, I applied one coat of each of the three wonderful Seventeen flakie polishes I got from Cel.
I love flakies. Subtle, but so effective to totally change the look of any polish...
What do you think?
That's it for now. Have I mentioned that I didn't buy any nail polish this week!? :D
Have a fun weekend!
wunderschön! *.*

AntwortenLöschenHm, from what you have been coming up with for this challenge so far, I think it will be pretty. Maybe the final spark will come to you on Sunday!?
Löschenschade dass du auf englsh schreibst...
AntwortenLöschenAuch auf Deutsch zu schreiben war irgendwann irgendwie... zu viel. Hab deswegen aber das Übersetzer-Widget in der Sidebar.
LöschenWOW!!! Came out awesome. In the first picture, it looks like you actually created butterfly wings between your middle and ring fingers. I love that. Thanks for the shout out. :)
AntwortenLöschenThat's actually a great idea for another marble. I might have to try for real :P
Löschendas Design gefällt mir besonders gut :)
