ChG Watermelon Rind


 I am trying to wear some polish's that have been living in the back of my Deez-elmer..... China Glaze Watermelon Rind is a lovely dark green jelly with silver and some blue glass flecks. This needs 3 coats or more to be opaque, so I layered it over Icing Manic Monday, a dark green that is usually opaque in 2 coats.

  7. What would the shimmery one look on its own or on gold? I think it may look nice also over a grey cream :) Love your combos...What do you think about my new Franken color? http://prettyandadorable.blogspot.com/2012/01/franken-11-orange-nectar.html

    1. I'm still here! I have been busy painting and un-packing. ( and addicted to pinterest and reddit ) I tried to keep up on everyones manicures, nail art and cool new stuff they bought or frankened but it bummed me out becasuse I trash my nails almost 4 days of the week working - so I tried to keep my nail blog reading to a minimum.

      Thnak you for your concern and kindness rasilla!
