I'm really getting back into my stamping plates lately. Whether it'll last remains to be seen! I have a love/hate relationship with stamping. I love how it looks and how you can achieve perfect patterns that you couldn't do freehand, but getting the stamp to cover my nails is always a problem. They JUST about fit lengthways if I position them perfectly! I often have to scrub off and start again. It's always a relief when I only have my little finger to go, it's so easy to stamp on that one!!
Here I've started with a base of Barry M Grey, and created a gradient using China Glaze Icicle and a make-up sponge. I used Konad White and Bundle Monster plate 322 for the stamp.
Love this stamping!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty effect!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! And I don't usually like designs with striping/ squares etc, but this looks so effective!
ReplyDeleteAmazing stamping! I struggle with stamping especially full designs. I love the pattern you chose. It makes your nails look longer.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love this :)
ReplyDeleteGreat color combination :)
ReplyDeleteI was looking at this stamp the other day and wondering what colours would look good. Its actually hard to tell which is the base and which is the stamped colour.
ReplyDeleteGood lord woman you shit all over my stamping efforts. This is beautiful!
ReplyDeletereally lovely manicure! i'm in a love/hate relationship with stamping too! i'm not sure if i don't use my stamps because I don't like the images i have, or if i don;t buy more image plates because i dont like stamping!

ReplyDeleteThis looks so perfect!! I know what you mean about stamping, it's so annoying when one doesn't quite go right and you have to start over again xx
