(Reminds me of "Mood Rings" by Relient K - "She said to me that it's so happy it's depressing / and all I said was 'Someone, get that girl a mood ring.'" It doesn't take much for a random song to pop in to my head....then I always have to listen to it. Starting up the Two Lefts Don't Make a Right....But Three Do album now......)
I spent a fair amount of time on this last night, but I was rather impatient when waiting for each layer to dry, which means I have nicks, I have bits of blue polish that peeled up with the tape, and I have flooded my cuticles with topcoat. All around, not my best work. I also ran out of regular Scotch tape partway through and started using clear packing tape. NOT ideal - the packing tape was much more sticky and pulled up the blue and some of the silver when I peeled it off.
BUT. I do love the concept and I love the color combination (Sinful Colors Aquamarine, Sally Hansen Insta-Dry Silver Sweep, and Sinful Colors Ruby Ruby.) The somewhat transparent red over the silver has a pretty cool effect.
(This, of course, reminds me of another song...."Ruby" by the Kaiser Chiefs. Hope I have that one on my Zune or it's going to drive me nuts all night.)
Hope you all have a safe and happy 4th of July!
