TUESDAY TECHNIQUE USING NAIL POLISH
Good morning blog friends....
Another disaster trying to video this technique! After, at least 8 sessions, I've had to admit defeat and when our 11 year old grandson gets to his dad's today from school, we'll be hot footing over there for him to show both grandparents what 'we' are doing wrong!
I used to record using my iPhone 5 but it would take a few hours to upload to YouTube so last week when it was my birthday my son really surprised me by buying me an iPhone 7. That was totally unexpected and I really appreciate him doing this. So now the videos upload in next to no time and, when I showed you the video of the mini album made with 5"x7" cards and the 4" card that folds away, both were recorded on the new mobile, not a problem until yesterday when I was making the video for today. I'm hoping sometime today there will be a video uploaded!
It's a little similar to the 'shaving foam' technique but with the nail polish the water doesn't get 'murky' as it does using shaving foam and alcohol inks
This card does have a definite marble look but the other samples, that you will eventually see, don't so much
I've used another one of Tim's 'small talk' sayings on today's card
Finally do you think anything else could go wrong?.... of course it could, it's me lol. I realised after I'd taken the photo that there was a smudge of red on the sentiment and then realised again, I had the card upside down when I adhered the sentiment in place! Obviously I found this out after the wet glue was completely dry
You live and learn....
A close up of said sentiment
Until either later or tomorrow, or both!...
