I'm pretty proud of this look for #31dc2016 Black and White. I created these beautiful watercolour flowers with a black Crayola marker borrowed from my kids and spread with rubbing alcohol and a nail art brush. Once dry, I used a fine sharpie to add the outlines. Once matte, Voilà! My Boyfriend Scales Walls was my base.
This was so quick and cool, I'll be trying again with other colours and patterns.
Cheers all,
This is stunning! I love the watercolor artsy look. I am still working on my black and whites, as I am a day behind and still catching up. I will add my link later though. I love your mani so so much. I want this on my nails now. Beautifully done.
ReplyDeleteI'm planning a Halloween something with the markers now that the challenge is over!
DeleteWhat a cool effect! I never would have thought to use regular markers to do a watercolor look- how creative!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't sure, but it worked! I'm doing another soon.
DeleteMarker nails are great fun. I really like the organic feel this has, and how all the colours that go into a black marker sort of leeched out.
ReplyDeleteI found the colours coming out of the black fascinating. I didn't know if others would just think 'hey it's not black!'
