Aussie Nails Monday - Rainbow Fish

It's Monday..nuff said about that! If you can't say anything nice, then do an awesome mani!  Today I have joined the Aussie Nails girls with their Monday challenges for the year, woot :) Today mani topic is Animal..and since I had a lovely blue polish on yesterday I wanted to try and incorporate it for today and I decided to do a Rainbow Fish look. I was inspired by the kids book The Rainbow Fish which has such lovely illustrations.

 For this look I used, FNUG Futuristica as a base, then stamped the scales  with OPI Russian Navy.
I then colored in the scales with Ulta3 Flirty Pink Hibiscus, China Glaze Splish Splash, Sinful Colors Fiji, Sinful Colors Savage andUlta3 Twinkle toes..phew!

Up close and personal.

FNUG is a great base for the Rainbow Fish print, it just give it that something else and OPI Russian Navy stamped really well. I was super happy with how this turned out. 

Hope you liked the look! I was tossing up between doing all my fingers and just the accent nail..what do you guys think? Was the accent nail enough or should I have done them all...
