Hi Ladies,

I used the houndstooth pattern from the Bundle Monster plate set. This was my first time using one of their full nail designs, it wasn't too difficult to get the stamp center, but I had to practice a bit.
For the stamping polish I used an old Sally Hansen 10 Day No Chip polish (they come in the thinner rectangular/square bottles) The colour I used is Black Berry, its a really really REALLY dark blue in the bottle but stamps black. It's great because it is highly pigmented and dries fast, BUT if you mess up you can just scratch it off and stamp again! I love that! As long as you seal it with a topcoat when you are done, you are good to go :)
It's a little gappy on the sides, but I tried my best to get it entered and straight without having to double stamp every finger.
This was also my first time trying to match up stamp patterns on my thumb nail. They really need to make these design bigger! And I definitely need to practice for next time.

Your thumb looks excellent to me! I think your nails must be nice and slender if the pattern fit on most of them with that little a gap! *LOL* I have chubby nails! I'm no good at lining the stamps up so I just do diagonal tips etc with them. I agree they NEED to be bigger!
ReplyDeletePS: Houndstooth is so hot. I'm a sucker for fabric patterns. :)
thanks :) My nails actually are not that thin, I consider them to be a little wide, you can see a little of the gap in the second picture. It was a bit harder on my left hand, I couldn't like up the stamp right in the center so had a bigger gap on one side lol.
ReplyDeleteThe widest nail other than my thumb is the middle finger, other than that the stamps JUST fit my nails with a slight gap on the sides... if I stamped perfectly center
I love it!
ReplyDeletethis is really cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks ladies :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks great with the black stamp! I think you did a great job with the thumb.
ReplyDeleteABOP - thanks :) trust me, it wasn't my first attempt! I kept scratching it off and starting over lol
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, I love this!! awesome color combos and so neat and tidy!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Brooke :) It looks a lot more centered in the pics than it is in real life ;)
