Rainbow Flower Power Mani

Today I'm sharing the results of a technique that I've been interested in trying for quite some time now, but haven't gotten around to until recently...  My first water-marble manicure!

Nail stamping manicure featuring a rainbow coloured water marble base stamped with flower images in black. An index finger accent nail is left unstamped, and features bands of the colours of the rainbow.

This was so much fun to do! Instead of the traditional water-marbling technique, I used a modified version that I recently learned about while doing some research. I've decided to do a separate post with more information on that, in the near future.

After the rainbow water marbling was applied to my nails, I decided tone down the look with some stamping. The end result looks very 'sixties inspired' to me. It wasn't intentional, but I decided to roll with it - which is why I decided to call it the 'Rainbow Flower Power Mani'!
