Blue gradient stamp

Before I post the other four JOSS shades, I wanted to share another blue mani I wore last week.  I really loved how this one turned out.

I started with a base of OPI Don't Pretzel my Buttons, then I stamped the rainbow arch design from my new Winstonia plates.  I used the Essie mirror polishes for the stamping, No Place Like Chrome and Blue Rhapsody.  To get the thrid darker shade of mirror blue, I just mixed two drops of Picture Polish Bombshell with one drop of Blue Rhapsody and then applied that to the bottom part of the plate with a nail art brush.

I probably could have blended my colours a bit more on the plate before scraping to get a smoother gradient, but I still love the final result.




Here are some more blue manis for Autism Awareness month, don't forget to add your own.
