The Summer Fun Challenge Day 6

Here is my "The Big Blue" look. I was going to do all waves and add a surfer but that seems a bit boring. So I found a bunch of stamping images to use. I almost used a dolphin instead of the shark but I wanted to add a bit of fear in it. The ocean isn't all happy n stuff. Anyways, hope you guys like it. I added a video tutorial of creating the wave on my thumb so check it out :)


The crab makes me think of the Little Mermaid... so cute! The stamps for this look all came from my XXL plate. This was the first time ever using it. It is a bit overwhelming but I managed :)
I tried to make it look like the top of the water with a somewhat wave-like stamp and OPI Just Groovy.

I'm sad that my shark bled some. It stamped perfectly. I think it was the polish... I used Kleancolor Neon Sapphire. For the cute crab, I stamped it using Pantone + Sephora Tangerine Tango Creme. I used Color Club Electric Coral for the sea horse. The fishies were stamped using China Glaze Shocking Pink (neon).

The colors I used for the wave are China Glaze Blue Sparrow (neon), OPI Just Groovy, OPI Sea Ya Later, Sailor, and Milani Whitest White. 









Here is the tutorial I used to create my wave nail. It is super easy and cute :)

    1. Thanks! I personally think the wave was just as easy as doing a stamp. I hate placing a stamp and having it crooked or off in some way. Ugh
