Hi Goddesses
I really do hope you're enjoying these mosaics as much as I am. They're so easy to do, and so striking. Now, whisper this, but the green one may be my favourite of all!
There's just "something" about the colour combination here that works like a dream, it's that congruence I was talking about before.
For this mani I used -
* base of OPI Stranger Tides
* Color Club green foil - Perfect Mol-ten
* a-England Dragon - the holo
* CG Glittering Garland
* Orly Ancient Jade
* Sinful Colors Green Ocean
* Sinful Colors Green Ocean
Don't they look beautiful together ? I also mixed up the style of patterns a little, and I'm liking that too, especially that sliver on the middle finger.
Now, here's a lesson in congruence. Remember I said to start with your darkest shade ? Well, doing this really helps you get the build right. I was down to the last 2 polishes and I really REALLY wanted to use Barry M Lime Green - but it became obvious that it wouldn't work.
Here's a little swatch I did at my desk - see how the lime green is just totally the wrong tone for the other colours ? So, that was a disaster narrowly avoided. I also couldn't decide whether the Orly was a good idea, and again, the napkin helped prove it was (it's the one on the right).
So which is your favourite mosaic so far ?
Have a great weekend, and enjoy xx :)
