I began this design with the idea that I'd stamp some red stripes (partial design from Konad plate M81) on top of the blue and add some small white stars afterwards. Well, as you can see, that didn't work out as planned. The red didn't show over the blue and I don't have any stars! (Well not any stars of sufficient size... I've got designs that have teeny, tiny stars floating around but I can never get those to stick to my rubber stamp!) Anyways, I tried stamping the red stripes but since it barely showed, I took a Stripe Rite polish (red glitter) and painted over the stamping. I liked how it looked so I added white stripes to the design! And since the star idea wasn't going to work, I used "USA" from plate M14.

Here's an early post for my "Analogous" color challenge. See! It's not impossible to do! :)

Here is another one of the Zoya polishes I ordered in the Zoya Exchange. This is "Kiki". It is an ultra bright, neon pink with glass fleck shimmers! This is probably the girly-est pink I've ever seen!... Maybe because the first thing I thought of after putting it on was Barbie! Since this is a neon polish, it dries to a satin finish (not as flat as a matte polish). However, it's easily returned to a glossy state with Seche Vite top coat. I'm VERY HAPPY with this color! It's going to be perfect for summer :)

You will need a teeny, tiny paintbrush (~$3.00) and pure acetone ($1.00). I recommend 100% acetone rather than regular nail polish remover. It works better and does it faster! :) As far as brushes go: This is a paintbrush I bought at Michael's but some people use makeup brushes. Use whatever works for you. The smaller, the better. Probably. Most likely... Oh yah! You will also need a paper towel.
The first thing you should do is find a surface that will not be harmed by acetone. I usually do my clean-up on the bathroom counter or on a plastic table. Next, double-up your paper towel by folding it in half. This is just to make it thicker and absorb better. Then, pour the acetone in a small container. I like to put it in the cap of the bottle it came in. You won't need much. That's why the cap is the perfect size.

Let me reiterate. The challenge is for you to use only 3 neighboring colors from the color wheel. Do NOT USE BLACK OR WHITE (as you can see, they are not on the color wheel). You are welcome to do as much stamping as you'd like but stick to your color scheme.
