Step By Step

1. Yellow, red, blue and purple Rainbow Color Drops Monomer Colorant by EZ Flow was added to monomer to create colors for backgrounds.
2. Using separate dappen dishes, I added color drops to monomer to create each color.
3. I dipped my brush into colored monomer then into clear acrylic. The clear acrylic turns into the color of the drops added to monomer. I then layered each of the four colors onto the nail to create the background.
4. Green seaweed was created using a layer of Peridot then a layer of Emerald and accents with Sour Apple.
5. Yellow Seaweed was made using Daffodil with tiny Granite dots on top.
6. Fish and Turtle were made using Onyx with Sourapple patches on back of turtle.
7. Octopus was made with Ruby. Onyx eyes and Truly White suckers.
8. Seahorse was made using Bride. Onyx eyes and body slightly outline with Onyx.
9. Starfish (barely visible) was made with Bride.
10. All designs and creatures were made with micro balls of acrylic and pushed into shape
11. Nails were overlaid or "capped" with clear acrylic and shaped and filed with the Wild Pro files.
12. Nails were buffed to a high shine and sealed with EZ Flow UV 30.
