Spring Challenge: Spring Gradient

Hello Lovelies! For today on The Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge, my task was to paint a Spring Gradient. Since I basically stink at sponging, I decided to do a springy marble gradient. Whew! I went through a LOT of colors and after I finished, I was surprised at how it turned out. Some of the colors look different once I started swirling those babies.

To create this mani, I used OPI Pine Snow as my base color. Heres how the fingers went (these are ALL China Glaze Colors):
Pinky--Sky High-Top, Bahamain Escape, & Kinetic Candy (the Kinetic Candy looks a little lost...)
Index--Coconut Kiss, Gothic Lolita, & Sweet Hook
Middle--Pool Party, Shocking Pink, & Dance Baby (Hello! Dance Baby looks purple compared to Shocking Pink!!!)
Pointer--Turned Up Turquiose, For Audrey, & Re-Fresh Mint

Here is my Spring Gradient:
My two favorites are my index and pointer finger. What do you think?
Here are the other lovely bloggers participating in The Purple Crumpet Fairy Challenge. I'd love for you to see their work!~
As always, Happy Lacquering! =)
