Nail Polish Marbling
I rarely play with PTI's Make It Monday Challenge, but decided to dust off some old bottles of nail polish to try the marbling technique as shown in Lizzie's tutorial HERE. I only used 3 colors (gold, plum and light pink) by different companies and they all reacted differently when hitting the water. One color sank to the bottom, the other sat as it should on top of the water and the third one spread out so thin over the top that it more or less disappeared entirely! I went ahead with the next steps anyway and this background is the end result. No award winner but still OK! I'm also playing along with the CAS(E) This Sketch challenge...a classic layout by Michele Ferguson!

I like how you added flowers over the nail polish, allowing that to become your background! Very nice!!
I'm so relieved! I had the same result with this technique! Don't have the card made yet, but I do know I am unlikely to do this again ... it took me four tries to manage one decent piece, lol!
Very pretty.
This is so pretty!! I LOVE the colors you used and your matching die cuts on this card. Great design!!
Really pretty Wanda. The colours you chose to work with are so lovely. Cheers.

Fun colour combo and love the silhouettes. Fabulous work on all the other cards too! Just love your work!!!
Wow, your colors matched perfectly!
Wanda, your card and bg are gorgeous! Such great colors! And I know what you mean about the problems of certain nail polishes in water. It was also hit or miss with me. I think I did about 20 pieces!
Your background is beautiful and it works so well for the CASe this week. Lovely!
