Rainbow Rows

Sometimes, a picture can affect me so strongly, that it will actually inspire a new mani! -- Come on, I didn't say it had to be classy or profound!!!

You know you laughed.

I started by using my striping brush to create the rainbow stripes - yes, even indigo! - down my nails.  I followed with a quick coat of SV.

Next, I cut small strips of scotch tape, and taped off the two sections on each nail.  (I decided to make two on each nail because my husband and I seem to have a habit of always seeing double rainbows!  I know ... awww!)

After I finished the taping, I applied one generous coat of black.

I finished with one coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast top coat.  This was my first experience using Wicked Fast.  And, I think it is safe to say that I am now addicted to it!  It has such a beautiful glass finish!  And it's definitely not just a clever name!  It dried ridiculously fast!!!  I was completely loyal to my SV top coat, but Wicked Fast just blew it out of the water!!!

I wanted to try a little something different on my right hand, so I taped off the tip only, then used black to create a fun rainbow french tip!

Colors: Essie - Ups, Nicole by OPI - Nicole's Fave, Sally Hansen - Mellow Yellow 360, Misa - The Grass is Greener on my Side, China Glaze - First Mate, Color Club - Blue-Topia, Wet n Wild - On a Trip, Wet n Wild - Ebony Hates Chris

This was a lot of fun to create, and honestly didn't really take very long at all!  I hope you enjoy it!!!!  Happy Painting ladies!
