Hi ladies

A client of mine is after a Blue in Shellac to compliment her wedding dress.

I have just looked on S2 and as far as I can see they don't do a blue. Can anyone tell me if there is a layering combination that produces this colour?

Thank you
 
The only one would be Blackpool and negligee. This question always comes up and untill they come out with a blue it's hard to make one. X

Really? Oh that's good as I have both those colours in already. I will experiment 2morrow, does it make a nice rich blue, as in more blue then black? Thanks
 
Purple purple over Blackpool makes a nice electric midnight blue colour. Hth.
 
It makes like a navy colour. Quite deep still. If you have a look in my album I have it on a colour wheel.
 
I made a nice dark dark blue with the following:

2x Coats Electric Purple
1 thin coat of Blackpool

Sometimes Ill add a quick thin layer of negligee also.

My client was after a blue black and we got it spot on with that. Unfortunatelly in all the pics I take, you cant see the dark blue but you can in the light!
 
Asphalt and purple purple makes a dark blue x
 
A thread has just been put up, fedora and purple purple gives a gorgeous royal blue.
