Aussie Nails Monday- Blue Cling Wrap Mani

Hello, hello..it's Aussie Nails Monday and today's challenge is "Blue". I wanted to use Essie Penny Talk still but obviously incorporating the blue..so I decided to age my copper with a patina look!  I googled a few images of coppery patina and decided that China Glaze For Audrey would make a great patina color with Penny Talk and using the cling wrap method I attacked my mani! If you don't know what the cling wrap method is, it's basically a piece of cling wrap scrunched and then dipped into the contrasting color and applied to the base coat in an artistic way, so easy, LOL :)

So this is Essie Penny Talk, with China Glaze For Audrey cling wrapped and top coated with Poshe.

 So bronze-y and pretty in the sunlight!

This look was super easy, it was a matter of finding the right color for the patina cling wrap polish to apply. China Glaze For Audrey was just awesome! If you don't have a suitable blue/teal polish you can make it with white, blue and green mixed together until it gets to a color you like :) I top coated this to smooth the look out and really liked the contrast. Super happy with how it turned out. 

Do you like this look? I love it personally but it might not be everyone's cup of tea. So, what else can you do with Essie Penny talk? Look number 3 will be up for tomorrow...
