Stamping
Oh why oh why aren't there more hours in a day!! Right now I could do with some as just one day off as I one day off to deal with family business has really put me behind with reviews.
Anyways I'm here with another rectangular stamping plate from Born Pretty Store.
BP L053 has some awesome Mandela images.
With a great mix of square and full nail designs I was so excited to use this plate!I did 3 different mani's each totally different. First off I started with my nails painted black. To this I applied a water based polish. Mine is white but dries clear.
I stamped with black polish...
Then using Born Pretty Store Chrome Pigment 1, carefully buffed over my nails.
I've seen this done with gel polish and wanted to see if would work with regular polish. And it does :)
Such a unique look showing the delicate stamping. Next up is one of my favourite colour choices, blue and white.
Stamping directly on to my nails, this image is so pretty. Lastly I made reversed stamped decals, and stuck to my nails with foil glue.
It's so nice to see that you can make the chrome work without gels. Now I need to know where your water based polish is from!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Try eBay, it's a peelable polish. Mine is VB Kids peelable polishes from VB Line x
DeleteWOW. I am glad you did this, because there is no way I can do gels.
ReplyDeleteSame, just glad this can be done without gels x
DeleteHOLY MOLY! Those manis are both amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteThat's great to know that just a plain water base will also grab the chrome pigment! I usually burnish it into a layer of top coat.
ReplyDeleteNot tried normal topcoat, one thing I'll have to try x
DeleteI always love when you do blue and white manis!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much :)
DeleteI really like the third mani!
ReplyDeleteIt's so bright and cheerful :)
DeleteWow, all so pretty! I like the first one best, great technique. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much x
DeleteMy gosh I love all of these looks!!
