Instructions:

I am very excited to try out the new FitFlop Pantone® 200 Red Varnish (as mentioned in my last post). I used this as a base colour except for the thumbs where I used Sinful Colors Black on Black. The application of the FitFlop Red was even, and loved the vibrant red but unfortunately was a little sheer, it needed 2-3 coats. Then I cut out a piece of small sponge and sponged gradation (my first time using sponge technique!) colour only on index, middle and baby fingers with Sinful Colors Black on Black. 2 coats. 2nd coat concentrating on the base to deepen the colour.

Then I used Sinful Colors Black on Black to stamp the ring fingers with the spider pattern from BM13 plate. From the same plate, I used Beauty UK Snow White to stamp the thumbs with the web pattern. Used good coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat and voilĂ !

This was my first time using sponge technique, what do you think? Where do you learn your techniques? What's your favourite new trick?
