Here is my entry for this week's challenge by Polish Hoarder Disorder. The nails have to be greyscale, only to be accented by the color of our choice.
For this manicure I first applied China Glaze Recycle as base color, then I stamped the flowers from m24 in my dark gray franken, and the flowers from m11 in my light grey franken. For those frankens, I started with two bottles, one white and one black creme. I poured from one bottle into the other, then the other way round, and shook both well, until I achieved a bottle of light grey and a bottle of dark grey. It was very easy and fun =)
Finally I stamped the buttlerfly image from m1 in mint green, and filled in using Zoya Ivanka. I wish I did a better job filling in, but anyway. Oh, and underneath Ivanka I first tried using a mint green shimmer, which looked kinda weird. That polish is very cloudy and looked dirty. But the shimmer is pretty strong, that's where the neon blue-green glow around the butterflies comes from.
The title was inspired by William Shakespeare's famous quote: "We will all laugh at gilded butterflies."
Son olarak m1'deki kelebek desenini açık yeşil ile damgaladım, ve içini Zoya Ivanka ile boyadım. Ivanka'nın altına önce sedefli bir turkuaz sürmüştüm, fakat güzel olmadı. Kelebeklerin bazılarının kenarlarındaki tuhaf mavimsi ışıltı o ilk sürdüğüm oje yüzünden.
This is so so so so gorgeous! I am totally in love!!

ReplyDeleteGosh, you are just so good with Konad! I wish I had your skills! My entry is so thrown together :( ... BTW, I guess "Kickin' Ash" (lol) does have a blue-ish hue. You are the second person to say that. Oh well! I've always thought that I wanted a slate gray!
ReplyDeleteI like this!
ReplyDeleteThank you PH =) I guess the blue-ish hue comes from the pigment in black. They're not true blacks, I guess! Btw, I like your entry so much =)
ReplyDeleteThank you m&vee =)
