Hello lovelies,
Quick post today to share some nails I was wearing recently (terribly behind in posting, dear me)!
I decided to get back into my stamping (for more details on getting started, read my tutorial here), so I decided to do some accent nail stamping and then did tape nails for the remaining nails. Please pardon the tip wear, I've been doing quite a bit of housework lately and with the lack of daylight savings, I couldn't photograph it before it started to show!
For the stamping, I used Sally Hansen White On as a base, and stamped the butterflies using Zoya Karina and ORLY Liquid Vinyl* (using Konad plate M39). With the tape nails, I used Liquid Vinyl as a base and then painted Karina over.
I hope you enjoyed that, lovelies! I'm thinking of getting more plates soon, so stay tuned!
Much love,
MM.

Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteStamping is so annoying if you mess up (which I tend to do quite frequently) because being a perfectionist, I'll have to remove all nail polish on that nail and start over! argh...
Thank you! I feel your pain, I'm the same! Luckily we have quick dry topcoats which reduce the risk of smudging somewhat...
DeleteThis is beautiful! xx
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteLooks great! I really love the butterflies, so pretty. I bought a stamping set a while ago (not Konad), I really should try more designes...I failed on my first try, my stamper wouldn't pick up the designs
ReplyDeleteThanks, Evelyn!
DeleteDid you try giving the stamper a buff with a nail buffer? It helps it pick up the polish a bit better. Check out the tutorial I wrote a while ago on getting started with stamping. :)
This looks amazing! :) I know zero about stamping so am glad you've done a tutorial post too. :P Can't wait too see more designs that you come up with!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend; hope the weather in MEL > ADL it's full on winter here = brolly season!
Oh, thank you! It's my pleasure. :)
DeleteLet me know if you ever give it go, would love to see what you do.
It's freezing here too, sigh. :(

DeleteI love the butterflies! You did a great job stamping them! I'm the worst at nail stamping so I haven't been doing it in a while haha

DeleteVery pretty! Stamping seems to be all the rave lately... I think I should get myself one! :P
ReplyDeleteThank you, you should! :) It's fun!
DeleteIt looks absolutely stunning! Like a piece of art... I like that you mixed the red with the soft white and butterflies, it's such a good combo. X
