30 Mani Marathon - Manicure 8: Metallic Nails

The 8th task in the 30 Mani Marathon is Metallic Nails.

To represent Metallic Nails, I began with one coat of Bondi Botanical Beauty. Over that, I used Kleancolor Metallic Purple, Metallic Jungle, and Mash stamping plate 38 to create the camouflage design. I chose to stamp the design in purple, then blue, then purple again to create the overlapping stripes. Lastly, I sealed the design with a coat of Diamond Dry top coat.

Camouflage

Today's manicure started with a base coat, two layers of China Glaze Kalahari Kiss, and a coat of Seche Vite top coat.

Using the Mash-38 stamping plate, I stamped the camo design first with Sinful Colors Exotic Green, and then again with China Glaze Below Deck, so that the two stamps offset and overlapped each other on the nail.

You could do this with any colors and it would look great. Shades of blue, pink, or purple would make a cute camo too! I followed the stamps with another coat of Seche Vite to seal the design.
