May Challenges - Indie / Freehand

Today's #30daysofcolourchallenge was Indie / Freehand for #30daysofcolourchallenge. I've gone for a freehand stripey rainbow type thing with 4 polishes from UK Indie maker Freckles Polish.
I used Raspberry Daiquiri, French Martini, Blue Lagoon and Caipirinha, all beautiful holos that have waited too long to be used.
I imagine I was supposed to try and be more creative and hand paint a flower or something but my freehand skills are very limited and I wasn't really in the mood for trying something I was likely to fail at - sorry!!! Not the best attitude, I know, but some days...
Anyway, I did my freehand stripey rainbow, got annoyed that there was no sunshine to pick up its holo beauty and then happily stamped over it!
I had seen lovely Sharon @sharnailstar do what looked like watermarbling and then read the caption - she had used Uberchic Beauty UC3-03. I looked again at that plate and realised what she had done so of course I had to try it. My intention with the holo rainbow was to create a nice base to stamp over and I am really pleased with the results. I used A England Lancelot, a really dark red black which I often use when I want dark but I don't want black. I think the dark red looks great against these holo polishes.
