The Digit-al Dozen Does It Again: Blue

Wow! Can you believe it? The Digit-al Dozen is celebrating it's one year anniversary by going through all 12 themes again! This is The Digit-al Dozen Does It Again! 12 full days of Digit-al Dozen nail art! Plus our September Spectacular Giveaway (click link or visit badge on sidebar to enter).

Now onto some nail art! Please excuse the nubbins, stress and anxiety lead me to file my nails down.


This time around I am trying new-to-me techniques! So this is a needle marble, well, a toothpick marble to precise. :) Very fun and very easy, will have to try it again!

I used OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls as my base with OPI Unfor-Greta-Bly Blue (the gorgeous shimmery one), and Catrice No Snow Petrol. Topped off with HK Girl Top Coat.


I added more polish on my ring finger to create more of an accent nail and to let Unfor-Greta-Bly Blue to really shine! It's gorgeous!

Have you tried this technique before?

  3. Came out fab! - I really love this. I have nubs right now too - seems they just went following a month of crappie diet and a bad sunburn - on to eating healthy again and making sure I have sunscreen with me in the car at all times...
