Hi everybody!

Today's Summer Challenge theme is Swimming Pool so I've decided to recreate the sparkling shining water using foil.

I've used two coats of China Glaze Splish Splash as a base colour. When the polish dried I've applied foil glue randomly in short strokes. After the glue dried I started dabbing the foil on the nail. I've used different shades of blue and blue-ish green to create the changing colour.

Hello there :)

It's Summer Challenge Day so it's my second post of the day. The theme is Sunshine and I really like the result. I didn't want to paint sun or anything obvious like that so I combined two techniques - gradient colours and stamping.

I've used China Glaze Sun-Kissed, Orange You Hot? and OPI The Color Of Minnie for the gradient base and Essence White stamping polish and BM plate RA-106 for the stamping.

These are the girls participating in the Summer challenge, Check out their blogs and see their interpretation of the 'Summer Sunrise' theme:
