Water marble strips

I've expressed my love for dry water marble before.  I had a few dry sheets around that were made about two weeks ago.  The polishes were a mix of sally hansen and china glaze.  



 I wanted to try some nail art with them so I cut the sheet into thin strips. 


The base is sally hansen green with envy and going green.  About 2/3rds of the nail was painted with green with envy.  I let it dry for about 5 minutes.  Long enough that my finger wouldn't leave prints on the nail polish when I touched it.




I then took the strips and placed them on my nails (polish side down).  I pressed down on the strip and peeled the plastic right off.  It was complete with a coat of seche.

    1. Just make the water marble sheets and let them dry for a few days. Then cut the sheets into thin strips. Place a base color on your nails and let it dry for 3-5 minutes. Put the strips on your nails and peel the plastic off. Finish it with a topcoat. It's really simple but ends up looking more complex.
