First Friday Frankens ~ Sweet Thistle with Racing Stripes!

Hello Dahlings!

 

Today is da 1st Friday of da new month & y'all know that that means...right?

A new franken polish show & tell! (Woohoo & da crowd goes wild!!! LOL)

This is one of my earliest attempts at mixing a polish from near scratch

rather than mixing existing polishes to make a new color or finish.

So here we go!

 

 Da line up: Sweet Thistle Bar franken, Sinful Colors Lazy Girl nail art

& Stripe Rite silver nail art

 

 2 coats of STB. This dahling started out as the last of the top coat that matched my fav base coat. After 20 years it had picked up a pink tint & was too low to easily use for a top coat, plus it was not a fast dry tc.

So I decided to putz with it...

 

 I added Sweet Thistle craft grade pigment powder from LuminArte', lavender holographic bar & fine purple glitters from da craft store. I really need to get me some suspension fluid cuz having to shake da beejeebers out of my frankens is a pita.

 

I then used da nail art polishes to add racing stripes!

Followed by a coat of Seche Vite.

It's still rather textured, but doable. 

 

Lookee at da cute Hello Kitty Halloween candy tin Mr Inky brought me from Archie McPhee's ! He found himself in Wallingford by mistake during lunch on Friday & knew he better not come home empty handed. He also bought me one of their grab bags full of all kinds of wacky toys, including a St. Anne statue. She's da patron saint of lost stuff...anybody know where my coffee is?

 

Now for your Ciri spam:

 

 What? I'se sleepin.

 

 Why did you turn on da flash & wake me up?

 

Never mind. Zzzzzzz...

 

Thanks for stopping by!
