Sweater Stamping Nails

I know sweater nails are everywhere, but I do like them!

My base for this mani is Barry M Prickly Pear. Stamping is done with Mundo de Unas Metallic Violet using MoYou London plate Fashionista 03.

I did enjoy this stamping. I love the similar colours together. It was a bit challenging to get the camera to pick it up, that's why the low light photos made the cut.
Thanks for the visit. Hope to see you back soon!

Infinity Snowflake Stamping

This is the first Infinity plate that I have tried. Really happy with it. I ordered a few more at the same time and can't wait to use them.
The base is Barry M Sugar Apple, stamped with Mentality blue opaque and Konad special silver. The plate is Infinity 79. This is one of those mani's that I liked some of nails and some not so much. I even managed to get a picture of my "other" hand to show you.

I know there are a lot of snowflake nails but there are so many options for them. Kind of like an actual snowflake, no two are the same.

70's Inspired Stamping - 52WPNMC

This is my entry for the Crumpets Nail Tarts 52 week pick n mix challenge. I decided to go with the 70's prompt.
My thought with this mani was ugly 70's wallpaper!

My base is SquareHue Oxford Street. Stamping plate Cici & Sisi 04 stamped with Mundo de Unas #12 Cream (which is more of a very pale yellow)

Thanksgiving Nail Stamping

Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadians!

I did turkey nails last year, so this year I went with leaves and pumpkins.
My base is OPI You're So Vainilla. Stamping done with Mentaliy opaque orange and Prim. Filled in with L'Oreal Creme de Mint and Mango Mamma.
Plates are Bundle Monster H11 and Cici & Sisi plate 03.

I thought it was pretty cute. Lots of fall colours.  The Bundle Monster plate (pumpkins) was fussy to work with, but no issues with the leaf pattern. And I threw in some pics of You're So Vainilla. I love these beige-ish nude shades. Great for nail art!

Thanks for the visit! Hope you enjoyed. Gobble Gobble :)

Mundo de Unas Mexican Pink stamping

Hello there. Back with another challenge mani this week. Our prompts this week were three colour gradient - pink. Since I did a gradient last week, I decided to go with the pink.
And I do need to point out that this falls into the nail fail category. I just wasn't getting a good transfer from stamp to nail. Not sure what the issue was. I didn't spend a lot of time on clean up knowing I wasn't going to be wearing this for any length of time.

My base is China Glaze Friends Forever, Right from the Giver collection. I stamped with Mundo de Unas Mexican Pink with Messy Mansion plate MM39.

There you have it, another #52wpnmc complete. Participants are from the facebook group Crumpet's Nail Tarts. Don't forget to check out the other bloggers contributing.

Autumn Leaves Stamping MoYou London Mother Nature 07

I've finally done a fall manicure. The weather has changed, so I thought it was time.

My base is Girly Bits King of the Lab. I then dry brushed on a bit of Cirque Lichen and stamped with Rica Mother Earth using MoYou plate Mother Nature 07.

Some of the stamping got lost over the darker green areas. Live and learn, I guess. I was still pretty happy with how it turned out.

Stamping Over A Purple Base

The Sunday challenge this week was stamping over a purple base.

My base is Julep Morgan, which is a lovely pearly purple. I decided to stamp with Konad red and used Messy Mansion plate 07.  Nothing terribly exciting, but I like it.

For those interested, here are a couple pics of Morgan without the stamping. Two coats plus top coat.

Thanks for the visit. I hope you enjoyed today's stamping.

Stamping with MoYou Tropical plates and Rica Polishes

Summer is winding down but I am determined to drag it out on my nails. The brighter the better! Today I went with some bright stamping.

My base is A England Iseult. It is a fabulous pale pink with a subtle shimmer. Index and pinky fingers are stamped with MoYou Tropical plate 12 using Rica stamping polish in Summer Mint. The flamingo's are Tropical plate 06 using Rica polish in Pinky Promise. No issues to report with the plates or polishes.

I really liked the way these turned out. They got a lot of notice, that's for sure! My summer will be going out in a bang. At least on my nails ;) I do need to mention that Pinky Promise is being discontinued due to issues with availabiliy of a pigment. Some international stockists still have it in stock. Act quickly!

Pueen Encore SE04B Stamping

Today I have some random stamping using Pueen Encore plate SE04B. I just wanted to see how well it stamped, so I chose different areas of the plate to use. My base is Barielle My City Apartment.  I've included some photos of that for you too!

I used Mundo de Unas Iris as the stamping polish. Using different parts of the plate, I didn't come across any areas that the stamp wouldn't pick up. Any smearing in the photos is from applying top coat, not the image plate itself. 

So far I've been very happy with this plate set and have no hesitations in recommending it to other stampers. I'm really loving these bigger plates that you can choose your own image.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you back soon!
