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!

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!

Gradient Challenge: Day 2: Yellow

Hello lovelies! Today is the second day of the Gradient Challenge Kelly (Nailpocalypse) and I are doing this week! Since the theme is yellow I tried doing a yellow gradient and black stamping to make it look like a bee. However, it ended up looking horrible and started over.

Soo this is the outcome. I'm not sure how I feel about it but I didn't feel like trying a third time. I'm sure Kelly came up with something super awesome so don't for forget to check out what she did for Day 2: Yellow!
