Nail polish marbling

I know, I know, you all thought I was done marbling, didn't you? Well, you thought wrong. I had made several attempts at nail polish marbling in the past and they all failed miserably. But today, I found some very cheap nail polish in the most gorgeous colours at an Animal Welfare sale, and I decided to spend 4 euros to buy 6 bottles and give this technique one last go. And to my own surprise, it worked brilliantly this time. So be prepared to see even more marbling soon.


For this card, I paired my marbled panel with stamps and dies from the Masterpiece kit by Papertrey Ink, The 'paint' on the brushes was stamped with Altenew inks. They are a perfect match for the colours of the nail polishes. I die cut my panel using a stitched rectangle die (Simon Says Stamp), matted it onto a panel of black cs and adhered this to my Neenah card base. The clear drops are by Pretty Pink Posh.

    Onwijs leuk en bijzonder. Waar nagellak al goed voor is. Sterk contrast door de krachtige zwarte strakke penselen op de dansende wateren? Of een bloem?met ook nog zo'n mooi bijpassende tekst. Fijn dat het eindelijk gelukt is. Liefs Ineke☀️

    What a gorgeous background! I really love how it's so spontaneous with the colour mixes. I borrowed some of my sister's to try a similar technique about a year ago and I still have them - better get trying this out!! xx
