31 Day Challenge, The final days!

Whew! Some free time! I have been working like crazy on school work and I recently got back into cross-stitching. I am making surprises for my friends and just keeping my nails in good condition is about all I have time for. So, here are some designs I did for the rest of the challenge and what I've been up to lately.

First up, Day 20 of the challenge, Watermarble! This is my first successful watermarble.  I realized that I just needed to tweak my technique a little. So, here is the result:

This is what the water looked like before pulling the colors.

Then using a needle, I pulled the colors

Then, dip the finger!

For this one I actually scrubbed my fingers with acetone afterwards. The second time I tried this, (I'll post pics further down.) I coated my finger in white glue. Then, when it's all dry after doing the marble, I just peel it all off. Here's that second watermarble I mentioned.

These are fun cuz they're a few of the duochromes I have over black. I got lots of compliments for this one.

Ok, I think that's good for today.

Happy Manicures!
