Hello ladies. Sorry this post is a little later in the afternoon than you are used to. Tyler and I went shopping earlier today and I am just getting around to blogging now :) I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend so far!
So yesterday I showed you Julep Sienna, a beautiful "white gold" shimmer that I think will be great for the Christmas holiday season. When I wore it a few weeks ago, I decided that it needed something a little extra. And I also wanted to do some stamping so I did :)
For this I used Julep Sienna as my base colour. Then, with Konad Special Polish Black, I stamped on the crisscross design from plate #M79. Then with Jordana Black I freehanded some French tips :) Then, because I wanted to try out some rhinestones, and because I only had round ones in green, I applied them to the big dots of the stamp design on my ring and thumb nails. With a fairly thick layer of top coat, these puppies were NOT coming off! :)
I found myself petting my nails while wearing the rhinestones :) It was kinda weird and I'm sure if anyone saw me doing it they thought I was nuts! I love using the rhinestones and love what they add to nail art :) Maybe the colour combination isn't the greatest, but I have some clear/silver ones now so I can use those for something like this rather than green ;)
Do you guys use rhinestones? Do you like the look of them or are they too much for you?
Looks awesome! I have never used rhinestones but I want to try it sometime. I think I would be petting my nails all day too! LOL
ReplyDeleteThey are really fun to use and pretty easy to use too :)
DeleteLooks great! I really need to practice stamping more! This is flawless! My stamping never turns out this dark and clear.
ReplyDeleteI have used the Konad "Special Polish" for this, but any polish that is on the thicker side (Sally Hansen Insta Dris) work as well :) I always make sure to clean my plate with remover between every nail to make sure the design is clean :)
