i began this manicure using essie's navigate her as a base then color blocked it using essie's splash of grenadine on the top half. to acheive the marbled look inspired by blognailedit.blogspot.com i tore up small pieces of saran wrap, bunched it into small balls then dabbed the balls of saran wrap on the nails to pick up the second color (splash of grenadine) achieving a "marbled" look. unfortunately it did not come out as i intended it to, so using a white dotting/stripping pen i dotted a line on each nail to complete the look. for the heart design on the ring finger i used a "crayola" nail art stencil which can be found at your local drug store.
