Please use this file size: 7" WIDE x 5.25" TALL @ 72 dpi (so everyone's images are the same dimensions... I want them all to be equal!) If you do not know how to crop and resize your image, let me know and I will gladly do it for you! It is better that I get a photo too large so I can minimize it to the size I need, rather than a photo too small. Photos that are smaller than the size I request will lose a lot of detail and become fuzzy when I enlarge them!
Great ideas all around!! Never done sponging before...this could be fun (though the idea usually looks better in my head than on my fingers). Fingers crossed!
Hahaha! I have had a manicure idea in my had for the past two weeks, and now you're having a challenge which involves my idea, too =DDDD
I'll try to finally bring it to life today, for the sake of your challenge! =D
Megan- LOL That happens to me too! Don't feel bad :) I've only done sponging once... intimidating at first but once you get the hang of how much polish is on the sponge, it's pretty easy from there :)
Trincess- Yay! Can't wait to see it! I'm glad this challenge is of interest to you!! I'm sure your design is going to look amazing!
If you really get stuck, look for some tutorials on youtube. I do have a sponging on my youtube. But, there are several different ways to do it. It will at least give you a heads up! Of course, I already did my nails yesterday so will have to wait until Wednesday to try this.
I love sponging! I've already got 2 ideas, maybe I'll do 2 entries this week =)
I think I'm actually going to enter this one!
I love your challenges! I just ...ahem... found them today. (don't get me wrong - I've been a blog slacker lately and your blog is one of my favorites.)
Maybe, I can think of something. I used to be a mean sponger...on other mediums. LOL
i love sponge technique... i have something on my mind and would love to share... i was run of time last week for ur challenge thats why I havent contribute in urt challenge i'll try to make a sponge mani today or tomorrow!! yay!! this will be lots of fun!!
Does the whole design need to be sponged or can the base/background be sponged and the art be painted?
Nikki- Thanks for the "sponging" suggestion! It's okay that you just did your nails because you have through Friday to send me your photos!
Colette- Great! That'd be awesome! Your nail art is amazing so everyone would enjoy seeing a couple entries from you :)
Jennifer- Go for it! Everyone's entries are published! These challenges are all just for fun:)
NailsIt- Aww thanks! Glad you like my blog!! :) I sure hope you will think of something. I'm not the greatest sponge-r... I guess I just need a little practice!
Thriszha- It's okay! I understand. I feel short of time a lot too! If you can find time to make a design, that'd be great! I'd love to see what you come up with :)
Megan- No, you just have to include sponging somewhere :)
Hey you will never guess what I found!!! A Salon that swlls Zoya 4 minutes away from me!!! It was like winning the jackpot except better!! So excited
Danielle- Haha! Funny! You are so lucky. The closest store that I know of is 3 hours away :( I stop there whenever I travel to see my sister!
Sadly I don't know if I'll actually buy anything quite yet I already own 225 bottles of nail polish. YIKES!!!!!
I'm sending my entry in today! :) This is the first time I'll be showing my nail art to anyone other than close friends and facebook buddies, so I'm really excited!!
I used my step daughter as a model cause I wasn't ready to part with my current mani lol. I used sponging on every one but it's hard to tell on some of them once you put a coat of seche on top.....oh well ;)
