Purple Flower Water Marble | Nail Art Tutorial

I prefer swatching marbles on paper rather than a fake nail because I get more of the design & can then decide which part(s) I want on my nail when I do my manicure. This is what I do before almost every water marble to test how colors work and what base to use.
