Epoxy resin swirl advice

Hey guys. Long time reader but just now posting. Would like to start off saying iv learned a ton reading through this forum. I thank you all. 

Some background. I shaped my first board a few weeks ago. Turned out great. Obviously not a pro. I got into shaping for me and my friends. I love board design so this is fun for me, plus me and friends can get boards on the cheap now. Getting ready to do my second for a buddy of mine. We're working on design and talking colors. He mentioned a green and white swirl. Somthing like this....

I know there are many discussions on this already and iv read through them. Most of what I'm seeing are slightly different however so i have a few questions still. Plan would be swirl on the bottom, clear deck, cutlap obviously. Would i be wrong in thinking i can lam the bottom with green resin, then just swirl in some white resin and lightly sqeegee? Glass would already be saturated and laps tucked with green resin. The extra white resin would just be for effect after the green has gelled. Or do i need to mix the green and white together in the same batch of resin? Id be using epoxy resin. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
