Purple Chrome and Black Nail Art: What I Did Wednesday

Hey y'all!

Good morning, fabulous faffers!  Today I'd like to start a new segment here at Fixin To Faff, wherein I show you the nail art I create with a swatch AFTER I've shared it on Hey, Swatch It Saturdays.  Today's inagural "What I Did (With It)" Wednesday will showcase how I transformed my last swatch from the Models Own Colour Chromes, Chrome Mauve.  With it, I created this purple chrome and black nail art look.

How fun is that?  With my base of Chrome Mauve on all nails, I added the stamping in Konad Black from Vivid Lacquer plate VL019 on my thumb, ring, and pinky nails, and added a coat of Maybelline Color Show White Splatter on my index nail to add that funky graffiti glitter look. 

For my middle finger, I created a ruffian by applying two coats of Sally Hansen Velvet Texture Velveteen a few millimeters from the top of the chrome polish, giving it a halo effect.  While the second coat was still wet, I placed in the purple rhinestones to finish it off.  If you needed a more permanent fix, I would suggest applying them with nail glue.

As always, I would love to hear what you think, not only of this look, but of the idea of dedicating a day each week to show the nail art that happens after a swatch is done. 

Hope you're all having a great week, and I'll see ya Friday, with another new feature, courtesy of some exciting news!  Stay tuned!
