Dry Marble on Parchment

Today I tried a DRY marble using China Glaze White Out and Poinsettia.

I used the technique with parchment paper and let the designs I made dry over night. After they are 100% dry, they will peel right off the parchment! How cool is that?! I also think it is less messy than the water technique. Also, this means you can use GLITTERS!!

This is after they were dried/trimmed and I peeled them off the parchment:

Some of what isn't pictured is my usual prep, and one coat of China Glaze White Out.

 I applied the one coat of CG WO AFTER measuring out a piece of a strip so it would be still a lil tacky to bond with the strip. Basically they go on just like the real nail polish strips.

                                                      

I did one at a time, just to get the hang of it because this was my FIRST time to dry marble.

After a lot of clean up, eh, not too bad!

I didn't take too much time with the design, just did a typical horizontal/vertical line pattern.

Do wait a while to add your top coat because it did drag a bit, I figured that was from the base coats softening it up a bit.

Or it may have just been my fault lol 

who knows?! 

I did one coat of INM Out the Door then one coat of Seche Vite.

WAH-LAHH!!

Here's a shot of both hands...

Overall this technique is better. Can't beat pretty-much-already-dried polish!

Til next time...
