Summer Challenge Day 8 - Swimming Pool

Hi everybody!

Today's Summer Challenge theme is Swimming Pool so I've decided to recreate the sparkling shining water using foil.

I've used two coats of China Glaze Splish Splash as a base colour. When the polish dried I've applied foil glue randomly in short strokes. After the glue dried I started dabbing the foil on the nail. I've used different shades of blue and blue-ish green to create the changing colour.
