Abstract with crystals - Artsy Wednesday

Today the theme in Artsy Wednesday is crystals.
I painted my nails with Linda Johansen Paso Doble, a gorgeous magenta with loads of pink shimmer, one of the polishes I got from Wenche from Norway Nails for my birthday.

I almost decided to leave it alone. But then the mail man arrived with a black striper, and one stripe lead to another and some dots also joined the party. And THEN I suddenly remembered this weeks theme and added a few crystals here and there. I think it became an OK and slightly different way to use crystals - do you like it?

Dagens tema i Artsy Wednesday er krystaller.

Jeg brugte Linda Johansen Paso Doble, en smuk magenta med masser af shimmer, som min grudfarve. Det er en af lakkerne jeg fik i fødselsdagsgave fra Wenche fra Norway Nails!

Jeg var lige ved ikke at lave nail art på den, men så kom posten lige med en ny sort stiper, og den ene stribe tog den anden, og pludselig var der også prikker på neglene. Og SÅ kom jeg pludselig i tanke om denne uges tema og placerede lidt krystaller hist og her. Det blev vist en OK og lidt anderledes måde at bruge krystaller på - kan du li' det?

Linda Johansen swatches: Razzle Dazzle and Paso Doble

As I told you yesterday I for my birthday got a generous gift card from the sweet Wenche from Norway Nails, and these two gorgeous Linda Johansen polishes are among the polishes I picked!

First we have Linda Johansen Razzle Dazzle - a gorgeous medium purple loaded with micro glitters, some - if not all - are holographic.
My ring finger is darker, because I wanted to see what Razzle Dazzle would look like over at darker color, in this case an eggplant purple. The difference was very clear after the first coat - which could have been enough on the ring finger, but what you see here is 2 coats. It dries with a silky finish, so I decided to add a top coat to add some shine.

Next we have Linda Johansen Paso Doble - just like the dance: fiery and passionate...
It's a fuchsia pink loaded with gorgeous pink and magenta shimmer, this is 2 easy coats without a top coat.

Do you like them - which is your favorite...?
