Welcome back for my last post for this month's HPB theme - Goldfish. I just take things literally and here we are again, with another goldfish inspired mani.
I finally gave in and ordered some scale vinyls from What's Up Nails and used them to sponge on my Nvr Enuff flakie topper, Koi.
I double stamped a goldfish using white and gold polish, and plate hehe 37. For the other nails - I started with a white base (and topcoat), and applied the scale vinyls. Then I sponged on black - I guess I could have painted this part on like normal, but I think if it's sponged on it's applied thinner and maybe dries better. I'm not sure, as I don't use vinyls much, but I wanted to sponge on the flakies over the black so I didn't want everything to blur together into a mess. Double sponging? Yeah...double stamp, double sponge, cuz two is better than one!
I'm very happy with the results! This could be my signature look...if I take a beak from trying to do new stuff too often!
