Kelly Flaherty says
I quit polishing my nails when I retired and started spending more time in the garden. Drat! I guess I’ll have to go buy some polish…
Donna Phelan says
Pretty Background!
Joyce says
oh boy, I get my nails done so have very few nail polishes. I think what I had might have went with my daughter to her apartment. Hopefully the dollar store will have some nice colors to play along.
Patty J says
Brilliant, looks like fun!
Mary W says
Who would have thought that nail polish would be the perfect thing for a guy’s birthday! LOL This I have to try.
Holly Saveur says
WOW..sadly I don’t own nail polish…
D.Ann C says
I’ve always wanted to try this! Hopefully I’ll find time this week!!
Dolly/scrapthat says
I love the colors you chose! TFS
Jane Sprando says
Wow! Great idea. never thought to use nail polish!
Becky Green says
WHAT A COOL TECHNIQUE! Now, do I have that many colors of nail polish around here? LOL 😉
Angela Lemmons says
That is amazing!!!
Connie Fisher says
Very Cool! I’m going to try this technique this weekend
Becca Yahrling says
Wow, what a very cool background.
Patt H. says
Such a great idea! I’m sure I have some old polish around somewhere! No lime or silver, tho. I’ll have to check with the young ones!!
Cindy H. says
What a fun technique and Lizzie’s card is fabulous! Unfortunately, the only nail polish I own is clear so I’ll be skipping this week’s challenge. Looking forward to seeing what others create though.

Love your Make it Monday video today Lizzie! Thank you!
DIANA L. says
Thanks for the fun tutorial. I Love making hand made paper
Billie A says
Wow beautiful look. I love the video thanks so much.
Sue LD says
Very cool colors and results.
Jona says
This is such a great technique. I had tried it once before but my results were not as dramatic as this. I learned a few things from watching this video – I wasn’t using enough nail polish and I didn’t move any of the polish around before laying my paper on top! Thanks for the great tips. Can’t wait to try this again.
Birgit says
What pretty results using nail polish! I don’t own any nail polish to try this so I’m looking forward to seeing all the cards in the link-up.
Katherine says
This is so pretty! I hope I have time to try this challenge this week, I have seen marbling kits at my local craft store but this is so vibrant!
Sarosa says
This was really challenging, and ultimately, I did not succeed. But I suspect part of the issue was the nailpolish I used; I only had three, and of those, only one floated on the top. One sank to the bottom, and the other diffused into the water. Any recommendations?
Anne Sweeney says
Oh WOWZERS… was that cool.. I’ll be hitting the dollar store , for polish .. your colors you picked for each panel ,Lizzie was very cool. Tfs .. Oh and that corner die ,was a super cool touch ..Hope you all have a great week .Peace Anne
