Happy Holo Day!!

Hi Readers!  Now that the weather is starting to warm up a bit at least here in Wisconsin I decided to get in with some of my other nail polish friends to do a holo day group blog!  A year ago I made a ton of holo's with spectraflair and have not worn many of them! I know Readers it's a darn shame but truth be told I'm not holo crazy the way I am duochrome crazy lol!  Anyway I decided I really needed to haul out some of the homemade holos then felt guilty I bought DV8 months ago and hadn't worn that so the quest was on to find something to wear with DV8.  We all know I have an addiction to gradients so I'm not even going to try to pretend I hadn't planned on a holo gradient because we all know I did.  And here it is!
I did this at night so we have to settle for the lamp lighting on some of these.  Basically my gradient is using 2 of my home made holos with DV8 sandwiched in the middle.
This one I named True Confessions, it's just a smidge lighter and bluer than DV8 I think
This isn't the best pic but it's the only one I have holding the dark blue I made named Hotter After Midnight
And of course the lovely DV8
And of course I stamped over it!
I thought about peacock feathers and mermaid tail tail stamping for this but my lovely internet daughter Rebecca mentioned everyone seems to be peacocky these days so I went with the waves.  I'm glad I did!  The sun was out today so I went out in my jammies to get some pics!  No one came by to arrest me so I figure my neighbors are used to seeing people either in their pajamas or acting a little nuts taking pics of their fingers LOL!
I definitely think waves were the way to go for this one!
Close your eyes Readers can you smell the ocean?????
Here's a picture of the polishes I used and how the sponge looked
Is it helpful for you to see the sponge Reachers or would you rather I just showed the polishes?  From left to right are my homemade holo True Confessions, China Glaze DV8, my homemade holo Hotter After Midnight.  For new readers joining me I like to name all my frankens after my favorite books.  True Confessions is a fab book from Rachel Gibson and Hotter After Midnight is a HOT book from Cynthia Eden.  To get my waves I used the swirl design from Shany SH19 and I stamped with my new fave white White On from Milani.

Please make sure you stop by and visit all my friends wearing holo today!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you all have a fantastic day!!
