Artsy Wednesday: Sponging

August 16, 2012 By Michelle 12 Comments

The theme this week is sponging. I did a simple sponged gradient with ulta3 Berry over Rimmel Lively Lilac, which is the least lively purple I’ve seen to be honest!

For my sponged gradients I’ve been using a dishwashing sponge – they’re so cheap I don’t feel bad throwing them out after one mani. I want to try more interesting sponged patterns in the future, but I always seem to end up with a simple 2-colour design!
