Well, I don't water marble so I cheated and stamped and it's not a proper rainbow in the pretty pastel sense of a rainbow or a 7 coloured spectrum but it is lots of colours!
I started with a smoosh of 4 colours, Barry M Flamingo, Kiko 385 (blue), HJ Manicure Red Wine and A England Carnation Lily Lily Rose.
Then I stamped using Dixie Plates DP02 and Moonflower Turquesa. Then I added a second layer of stamping, same image, deliberately offset with Moonflower Violeta.
I think to be honest they were a lot more successful than I thought they were going to be and I wore them for 2 days. I really liked the combination of colours and I am quite pleased I didn't try to go for a proper rainbow.

When Colours Collide - Red and Gold
It is almost time to post the next WCC challenge, Green and White, but first I have to catch up and post Red and Gold from earlier in the month.
I started with a base of HJ Manicure Red Wine
Then I added Avon Metallic Effects Gold Leaf and UberChic UC 4-02
Next I added Colour Alike Red Wine and the same UberChic plate.
And finally SV by Sparkly Vernis Gilded Lemon Drop and the same UberChic plate again. This was the image I used for the collaboration.
The last pic in the series was with matte top coat.
We had so many entries we made 2 collages.

HJ Manicure Red Wine
Today am I am wearing another beautiful polish from HJ Manicure. This is Red Wine and it is truly beautiful. It is a dark red creme, and I am totally in love with it.
It applied well with excellent coverage in 2 coats - the quality is fantastic with these polishes.
Pictures are taken with top coat although this was pretty glossy anyway.
This is such a rich colour, and in my opinion the tone is perfect, that darkness and the tiniest blue tinge that stops this being too red!!
Sorry it's a short post but I am mega busy and what else can I say?
