Two Tech Metallic for #31DC2014 #stnchallenges

Another double challenge nail art.  Still running a little behind, but hopefully I am catching up.  The prompt for Style Those Nails is two techniques and #31DC2014 is metallic.


This was inspired by these gorgeous shoes!

Aren't they gorgeous?  I wish I could wear shoes like these, but the arthritis in my knee does not allow it.  Doesn't mean that I don't appreciate a beautiful shoe.


I started with two coats of OPI Push and Shove.  First I sponged with Sally Hansen Gone Grey, but it just wasn't dark enough.


So I added Pahlish Eleven's Hour is Over Now.  Sponging, technique #1.


Then I stamped with DRK-C and Finger Paints Black Expressionism.  Stamping, technique #2.


Then I stamped with Bundle Monster BM-313 and Maybelline Bold Gold.


Not as beautiful as the shoes, but I still love it.  Thanks for looking and commenting!
