The Nail Challenge Collaborative - Flowers Week 1

Monday, July 22, 2013

Hello again! I'm so behind on this month's challenge for The Nail Challenge Collaborative. This month's theme is flowers which I'm really excited to tackle since flowers are pretty new to me. I've bought my first set of stamping plates a while back but never had the chance to play with them so I decided to use them for this challenge.

For my base color, I used L'Oreal Pistachio Dream. Taking stamping plate BM-308, I used the full nail floral design on it and stamped using Wet n' Wild Candy-licious. Lastly, I applied my Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

This is my second time stamping so I'll have to practice more since I smudged the design with my top coat here and the image didn't transfer as much as I would have liked. Surprisingly, I love these two colors together since it has kind of a vintage feel to me. What do you think of my floral stamping manicure?
