We are on Day 11 of the challenge and today's theme was Splatter!
I have never tried splatter nails before so this was completely new to me. I knew the basic method so just grabbed my weapons of choice and got to work.
I started with two coats of Barry M Matt White as a base. Then I randomly added blobs of Barry M Shocking Pink, Pure Turquoise, Mint Green and Berry Ice Cream to a sponge and sponged it onto the nail to create a random gradient type background.
Then I took my drinking straw and used Barry M Black and Matt White for the splatter effect.
I have to say I honestly thought I was going to get myself into a complete mess with this but I'm really happy with how it turned out and I managed to keep the mess to a minimum too so that was a bonus!
Tomorrow is Tape Mani day, which I always get into a mess with!
