Today I have a mani refresh to my layering experiment I did with Sally Hansen, Sequin Scandal and Color Club, Wild and Willing. When I added wild and willing I didn't expect for it to show too much and be as dramatic as it looked. Sure it looked pretty cool, almost like Orly, Space Cadet, but if that's what I was going for I would have just put that on instead.
At the time it was a little too much for me, so I looked through my Konad and BM plates to see if I could find a full nail stamp to give my mani a little something special.
please enlarge all images!!
I chose BM plate 19 and double stamped sideways so I could cover the full width of some of my larger nails. There is a bit of overlap in the stamping, but I like it :)
I love the look overall, stamping black over an already dark colour gives a more subtle, softer look I think.
Pretty color (I think I missed your post yesterday)! I like that circle pattern - I used it over Color Club What A Shock! Cute. :)
ReplyDeleteI LIKE! I like A LOT! I really love the Konad circle design. I REALLY need to get some more Konad plates. I only have 4. Lol. :)

So awesome! I just love that pattern and the contrast against the sparkle really works. Wish I'd been around more the past few weeks. It's FREAKING DECEMBER tomorrow! Ahem...where'd November go?

I love it! I really like Konading with colors that are kind of close to each other.
ReplyDeleteMegan - thanks :) i like how I finally made full use of the full nail designs and to actually fit the full width of my nails!
ReplyDeleteLindsay - thanks :) I used a Bundle Monster plate for this design, they are cheap if you are looking to buy some more
JQ - thanks, that what i liked about it too, definitely one of my favorite manis :) December tomorrow, does that mean I get to start my Christmas manis? lol
Zara - me too, I like how it's not too over the top
oh man, this is a gorgeous mani! And you did a great job with the double stamping of BM plates! I keep struggling with double stamping..I really do suck at lining them up. what camera do you use? your pictures are super clean!
ReplyDeleteshortwide nails - thanks! I still don't have it mastered, but a little bit more practice should help :) The camera I am currently using a Pentax DSLR for my photos. The odd time I will use my panisonic point and shoot but the pictures come out crispter withthe SLR.
