Gradient Challenge: Day 5 & 6

Hey everyone! I can't believe tomorrow will be the last day of the challenge Kelly (Nailpocalypse) and I are doing!

 I was not able to post yesterday since the power went out. Have any of you been having horrible storms?

So for Day 5: Watermarble, I tried like 3 times and I couldn't get the polish to spread. So I gave up on the third time. Excuse my messy cuticles, I sat there for 10 minutes trying to remove all the excess polish but it wouldn't come off. So here it is, definitely not my best work!

*If you missed Kelly's water marble, don't forget to check it out!



-China Glaze: Frostbite
-Sally Hansen: Mint Sorbet

For day 6: Any Color, I decided to do my favorite color combo for gradients! Yellow, orange, and pink. I think they go so well together! Enjoy!

* Check out Kelly's awesome gradient for Day 6




-Sally Hansen: Mellow Yellow
-Zoya: Arizona

Stay tuned tomorrow for some glitter gradients from Kelly and I!

  1. I'm glad your power is back. It's so inconvenient to be without it. I think the marbling designs turned out quite well... just a little messy. :-) I like the yellow/orange/pink gradient. Those colors look super cute together! :D

  6. I love these both! You pick the best stamping images to show off gradients. Ha, we both picked blue colors for the water marble. I really love how yours turned out!

  7. Love the gradient!

    I haven't done much water marbling, but when I tried, I taped off my skin first and cleanup wasn't bad at all since most of the excess just peeled off with the tape.
