Starting off with a bang, I have a card created last month using the Nail Polish Technique. I’ve known about this technique for years, but just didn’t have the gumption to try it. My stampers LOVED it – and everyone’s background came out different. *WARNING – it is messy. Please protect your hands, countertops, etc.
Here is the card:
I was thinking of Father’s Day when we created these cards. Men and nail polish, crazy right? Kind of cool that is Flag Day too with the patriotic colors scheme.
I usually keep my Technique Tuesday cards pretty simple as I want to show off the technique. I do love the star theme though!
Here are the supplies you need for the Nail Polish Technique:
- Throw-Away Container
- Water
- Throw-Away Stirrer (chopstick/plastic knife/drinking straw)
- Nail Polish (2-3 colors)
- Watercolor Paper
- Nail Polish Remover
- Gloves/Scrap Paper (DEFINITELY USE GLOVES)
Here are the instructions for the Nail Polish Technique:
- Fill container about 1/3 full of water.
- Prepare your work area – protect surfaces and hands.
- Drizzle in a few drops of nail polish, one color at a time. Do not take too long. Briefly stir colors.
- Dip watercolor paper in to container and leave on top for about 2-3 seconds. Check what is left on the watercolor paper. If you want more design, dip again.
- Take out of container and let dry. If it curls, keep it under a heavy book once it is dried.
Use as a background on a card or tag or even for a scrapbook page.
