Bon Pretty Store Stamping Kit!

I have just mastered the art of stamping, so I decided to try a squishy stamper from Born Pretty Store. And boy oh boy. I could NOT get this stamper to work. At all. I tried different plate brands, different polish brands, the metal scraper included, a plastic scraper, nothing worked. It's not often at all that I have negative things to say about Born Pretty items, but this one, I just had no luck at all.

I have other great stampers from Born Pretty, so I do recommend some, have a look at the Born Pretty nail art selection, and use my code for 10% off - AFL91

Until Next Time,

Born Pretty Store White Rhinestones!

I have really been loving tiny tiny rhinestones lately, so when I spied these ones over at Born Pretty Store, I decided to give them a try.

They are very, very small (2mm), and therefore quite fiddly, so make sure you have a steady hand! (Unlike me...)

I paired the white/super pale gold stones with Sea Sirens Deep Blue Sea and China Glaze I'm Not Lion. The colour isn't as white as I was hoping but that's only down to my personal tastes. So besides my colour choices and shaky hands, these are great quality and super delicate.

You can grab these or any thing else from Born Pretty nail art selection, use my code for 10% off - AFL91

Born Pretty Store Halloween Stamping Plate!

First of all, I do apologise for my absence. Work, stress, and a family matter have taken over lately.

I have been trying hard to get back into nails and blogging, and this stamping plate from Born Pretty Store has helped a lot!

First of all, I love the designs on it. How could I not? It's no secret that I love me some Halloween deco. I'm still pretty new to stamping so I could have done better, but I tried dammit. I used almost all of the plate, there are so many ideas I have with it!

 For this one, I used a gradient of Fae of Australia Travilia, OPI A Taupe-less Beach nd Ulta3 Chinchilly, and topped it with Ulta3 Stop the Press. Stamped with A England Ophelia.

 Sea Siren Ultramarine and stamped with Nfu-Oh 61

 OPI Did It on Em and Ulta3 Black Satin

Sea Siren Sea Moss Base, with Pretty Serious Gruesome Groom and Crows Toes Morticia and I stamped with Dance Legend Thermo 170 (red to black thermal stamping? YES!)

In terms of the plate itself, it's a bit fiddly to use as there's so many different patterns, but what I did was use my base colour over bits of a different pattern that my stamper would pick up and that made it easier by miles.

If this is your type of thing, you need this plate! You can grab it or any thing else from Born Pretty nail art selection, use my code for 10% off - AFL91

Until Next Time,
