You may remember I got some stamping plates from born pretty a while ago and I only got round to trying them out the other day, I decided the use the hearts french tip stamp, now this is my first time stamping and I don't think it could have gone any worse !
I thought I'd stamp the pattern to cover my whole nail in all different pinks and reds etc, so I painted all my nails with a pale pastel pink franken and then started stamping with zoya renee, sometimes it went ok other times I just wanted to cry ! anyway I carried on with different colours and then in an attempt to hide the hideous stamping I started layering different polishes over it
pinky - Teenage dream, Ring - I lilly love you (it smudged so badly !), Middle - clear with a red heart rhinestone, Pointy - nubar 2010
This was my favourite finger out of them all , but it was still a shambles ! loll look at my horrific stamping, I completely missed the side of the nails ! : o
Anyways I hope your Ok after that, do you have any stamping tips for me ?

My favourite is the pinky with the sparkles all over it! :D I'm sorry to hear that you have been having trouble with stamping. :(
ReplyDeleteyeah that's my second favourite
Deleteno worries. practice makes perfect! not bad for your first try. I think a lot of it has to do with the stamping polish you're using because a lot of regular nail polishes don't work. I myself only use regular nail polish if it's a chrome or if it's sally hansen insta dri, but I mainly use Konad stamping polish. Hope you enjoy your Valentines day!
ReplyDeleteyeah the very first time I stamped it on paper and half the colours I used didn't work, I thought there was something wrong with the plates ! loll I'm still trying to see which polishes work best but I'm going to keep on practicing ; )
DeleteYour manicures are so amazing :D
ReplyDelete*blushing* thankyou : )
DeleteI hate when I have high hopes and then my mani's are total fails!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean, unfortunately that happens to be a regular occurrence with me !
DeleteDon't worry-it happens to all of us! It just takes more practice!
ReplyDeleteloll, I know I'll be doing a lot of practise so expect to see some more pretty bad fails ! hehe ;)
DeleteI like it! If you wouldn't of said anything I would have thought you meant it to be this way! My son has a note book broken stamped with words! Ha That cost me 3 bucks.
ReplyDeleteOooh, that sounds cool! Omg, you should totally do a mani inspired by it it would look soo cool, as for this I'm glad you didn't think it was a huge fail loll !
DeleteI was expecting something terrible...but it looked really good like you meant it that way. :)
ReplyDeleteI actually absolutely adore these nails!! I don't think it is a fail at all!
