Dry Brush Drag Mani

Hello Nail Surfers

Welcome to My Beach

Today I have another super easy base Mani with Stamped art 
to share with you.

SURFS UP

I started off painting 3 of these nails with "Take a Glint" (light blue)
And on my accent nail I used "Stars Aligned" (Dark Blue)

I used Dark Blue,Orange,Light Blue and White Acrylic Paints.
I did a  Random Dry Brush Drag Here.
**Dry Brush Drag?**
It's when you wipe off access polish/paint off the brush onto either
paper,paper towel before you start to do your base art.
Once you have wiped most off then you just swipe/drag it across
your nail.

For art I used hehe 105


I actually Scored that Blue Nail Polish for a Buck at Dollar Tree.
I Love finding great deals!

Base Polish
Dollar Tree
Acrylic Paints
Any local craft store,Walmart,Amazon etc.
Stamping Plate hehe105

Have you ever done a dry drag brush mani before?

Thank You for surfing my wave.
I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.
And I hope you return again soon.

DIY Stamping Polish

Hello Nail Surfers
 
Welcome to My Beach
 
With so much to share still, I'm torn on where to even begin.
 
Lets start this off with some DIY Stamping Polishes.
 
 
SURFS UP
 
 
Yes these will Show over a Black/Dark base.
 
 
Here I Mixed my Red and Yellow on the image to create
the orange color.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Alcohol Inks ad Tattoo Inks!
 
Yep..
It's that Simple.
You can Alcohol Inks at your local craft store.
I get most of mine at Joann Fabrics
 
The Tattoo Ink was gifted to me. But it can be found at
Tmart.com
 
I use these inks for a variety of mixed media's.
But will get to those later :).
By Creating my own I can now have custom colors at my finger tips.
 
 
After I had made the Video above I tried the Tattoo Inks
and they work Perfectly.
 
Now to finish any test I do, is Clean-up
 
 
I am so Happy that  71% Rubbing Alcohol will remove the extra.
I did recently test this on 91% and it seemed to remove the
extra a tad faster.
Now why and or how is this possible?
Well, honestly I am not 100% sure why really.
I think maybe because the Funky Fingers I start with for stamping polish
is 3Free. But I cant say that for sure.
 
 
.
It's much faster.
Another Good thing about this hack is
I can scrub as rough as I want and I will not ruin my base or remove the
image off my nail.
And Yes I can use tape, but I can only get so close
because some stamping polish may lift off my actual nail.
( I did a video on that 2 yrs ago)
Plus its 2015!
Time for some New Tips and Tricks
 
I used my DIY Green and Yellow
along with Bundle  Monsters New
Secret Garden Collection
BM702 & BM703

This Blue is a Bright Teal in person.
I used MY Online Shop MJXXXI plate for art.
 
 
I have made DIY Stamping Polish with Enamel Paints before.
But sometimes the Polish Base would react with the Enamel.
The Inks have not given me any issues or troubles.
It's been almost 1wk and the bottles are still perfect.
 
I hope you enjoyed your visit at My Beach.
And Thank You for taking the time to come visit me :)
