Undah da Sea...

The star of this mani is Revlon Royal, a dark blue jelly that has almost a vinyl appearance when dry.  Look into it's depths, it's delightful shadows of darker blue. 


I decided to try a sponging method where two colors go on the sponge and mix up a bit.  The green is China Glaze Cha Cha Cha, and the blue is Finger Paints Late Night Rendezvous.  Both polishes have a metallic-like sparkle to them, giving Royal a deep, oceanic feel.




I envisioned a giant sea turtle swimming among the waves, so I stamped him in black, which was hard to see.. so then I stamped over in white. 



Then, I dabbed on a little a-england Dragon, because I thought the turtle should be green.  But now you can't hardly see the turtle...


Right hand:


Well, maybe I should have left well enough alone, but you don't know if you don't try... I still like the idea of my turtle swimming along...

  1. LOL every mani is a learning experience somehow. You are right about the deep see feeling this mani gives :)

Thank you for your comments! They mean so much to me, and I read all of them, even if I don't always have a chance to respond.
