Twinsie Tuesday: A Franken

Hello Hello!! It's time for Twinsie Tuesday! This weeks theme is a franken, something of our own creation.  I'll be honest with you guys, this terrified me!  I am not so good with the frankening, but I think it actually turned out pretty good!! The first picture I am going to show you is what inspired this franken.  This is Pure Ice Kiss Me Here with Essie Shine of The Times layered on top and also a matte top coat.



What I used for this franken was Pure Ice Kiss Me Here, Sally Hansen Xtremewear Disco Ball, Essie Shine of The Times, and a little pinches of the Finger Paints Special Effects Topcoats.  I used 3 coats to achieve what you see in the pictures below.  It turned out kind of like a jelly polish. So here is it everyone, my franken! This doesn't have a name, but I am open to suggestions! Hope you like!  (the pictures are larger than normal, I wanted you to be able to see the flakies!)








Don't forget to check out what the other ladies came up with!
