Side note - I'm also playing with where I take my photos. The first two photos are in my new spot, the second photos are where I normally take them. Thoughts? I'm really feeling the first two shots! I like the lighting, but is it too dark?

My Second Franken - Emerald City
Hello! :) Here is my second franken. I was walking through Michael's craft store when I came across a package of multi colored hex glitters. I instantly thought of frankening my own creation while I wait for my invoice from Lynnderella. I'm actually in LOVE with what I came up with! I named in Emerald City. I put it over 1 coat of Color Club's Artsy Craftsy which is also a great polish.

OOH this is super gorgeous!! Perfect name too! I need a trip to Michael's methinks! :) Quick question though, do these glitters sink to the bottom or did you put something in the bottle to shake up the glitter? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThat is an exquisite, creative franken! *wolf whistles* What did you use for the base?
ReplyDeleteHey! Before you go to Michaels....these bleed big time. I couldn't tell here because I used other greens as a base but I tried mixing blue & purple and within minutes the purple took over. These sunk as well, although for this franken I used just clear SH top coat in 1/2 the bottle. I tried them in Confetti Tiara, which I read was a good franken base on MUA and they still sunk :(
ReplyDeleteAs a base I used a lot.....mainly Sinful Colors Call You Later, OPI Glow Up Already, Orly Here Comes Trouble, ChG Mistletoe Kisses and CC Untamed Luxury.
Bummer! I think I'll stick with layering. :( still, that looks great on you!
ReplyDeleteThis is insanely gorgeous!! Do you know what brand the glitters are??
ReplyDeleteThey are Recollections. They come in a pack of 10(?) for around $12.00. I bought two sets, hex and bar glitter. They are gorgeous. They do bleed though.
