Hiya everyone! I'm finally feeling mostly better! I decided to celebrate with a water marble, since it has been a little while since I did one and I really like them. I wanted a pink, feminine, pretty one--I bought my mother some flowers for her birthday, and they were all these gorgeous shades of pink and purple. It inspired me!

I think they look like fairy wings! *_* |
It took a while, but I finally found three colours that would play nicely together in the water. Over a white base to help them stand out (can't remember which white polish, doesn't matter) I marbled three creme-finish colours:
Orly Charged Up (grapey purple),
Orly Frolic (fuchsia), and
Revlon Pink Chiffon (baby pink). I topped it with
China Glaze Fairy Dust for that lovely scattered holo sparkle before topcoating with
Orly Sec 'N Dry.
I used
this marbling technique to create a star shape in the water, although for my "regular" fingers I dipped two at a time, so the star wasn't obvious. Only on the thumbs, which I dipped alone, did I get the centre (and I LOVE how it looks!) on there. Other than a few bubbles, I think it came out perfectly!

Without flash, bit more colour-accurate. |

And since I was going for the girly thing, I went all out and posed with my cute bow necklace :D |
Hope everyone's having a nice week so far! xoxo
