Springtime

Hi everyone! Today I thought I would do a cute, Spring theme with bright colors. I love this stamping plate! It's  BP-52  from Born Pretty Store . All of the polishes I am wearing were all Mother's Day gifts! The first one is China Glaze Nail Spray in Platinum Silver. This is my first 'spray polish'!   The next two are from Salon Perfect, Neon Pop colors, Pink-y Swear and Purple POP . They have so many awesome colors! Last but not least, from Essie, is Go Ginza on my pinky . The stamping polish I used is Dark Purple from Ya Qin An.  Quick link to stamping plate:  http://www.bornprettystore.com/full-design-beautiful-flower-nail-stamping-template-image-plate-born-pretty-bp52-p-18795.html

Born Pretty Silver double stamped

Have you guys seen any double stamped nails yet? I loved the look so I wanted to give it a try! I just got in a new silver stamping polish from Born Pretty Store . The  Ya Qin An pink stamping polish  I did a review on in my last post, seemed to look really cool next to the silver. They both stamp great over dark colors! It was a little tricky to find a design that would be good for a backround and one to put on top of that background. I first pained my nails pink and black. Both are by LA Colors. The pink is called Electra from the Color Craze collection and the black is from the nail lacquer collection called Black Lace Creme. The stamping plate for the background design is he-he 018 and the plate with the  flower design is   BP-09  from Born Pretty Store as well. I used a dotting tool to put the middles of the flowers and that was it!  Below are the links to the stamping polishes. I am always looking for a good new stamping polish and...

Daisies

This is a quick and easy design. I love dasies but I wanted to give them a little twist. I love, love, love this blue by Milani. It is called Power Periwinkle . The stamping plate is from Born Pretty Store ,   BP-46 . Then I just added pink dots in the middle of the flowers insted of the usual yellow. Hope you like this one!   You can get the stamping plate here:  http://www.bornprettystore.com/banana-tree-nail-stamping-template-image-plate-born-pretty-bp46-p-18789.html .

Neon Tulips

What is Summertime without neons? The neon polishes are a set of minis I got from Kohl's. They are by Academy of Colour (pictured below).  The stamping plate is from bornprettystore.com .  BP-68 . I used the reverse stamping method to color in the tulips. :)  I can't wait to do more designs with this plate.                  Purchase stamping plate here:  http://www.bornprettystore.com/cute-flower-heart-nail-stamping-template-image-plate-born-pretty-bp68-p-20041.html .  And don't forget to save  10% by using my code PQL91.

Happy Flowers

I get a lot of my nail design color inspiration from interior design palettes. I love this color combo of turquoise, grey and fuchsia. I was dying to try it and I just love the results!! For this design, I started with a white base. Let it dry. To do the gradient, I just apply the polish to a make up wedge and then press it onto the nail (as shown it photo below).  Then I stamped it with white stamping polish and stamping plate BP-20 from bornprettystore.com . To finish it off, I used a dotting tool to make the center of the flowers. Then I just did my clean up and put a clear coat on top. :)  I hope you all like it!!  The polishes used here are Sinful Colors-Dream On, Essie-I'm Addicted and  Sweet Color-Gray. The white stamping polish is by MoYou Nails

Review of Born Pretty Store Ya Qin An 007 stamping plate

Hey everyone! Today I wanted to share a stamping plate that Born Pretty Store  kindly sent me to review!  I am developing a habit that I like to collect different stamping plates like baseball cards or something! Lol. I really appreciate when the maker adds special little touches, like a little envelope or sleeve that holds the plate.  This one did!!  It is by Ya Qin An. Y007 It is about 2 inches by 2 inches big.  Here is an closer look... The designs were etched beautifully!  Here are a few designs I came up with to give you some examples... I highly recommend this stamping plate! You can purchase it here:  http://www.bornprettystore.com/simple-lines-patterns-nail-stamp-template-image-plate-y007-p-18408.html Don't forget to use my new 10% off code PQL91.

Stained Glass Flowers

First I will tell you the polishes I used from left to right. LA Colors- Boomerang, LA  Colors- Electra and Essie- I'm Addicted. The stamping plate I used for the flower design is from Born Pretty Store ,  BP-07 .  The little silver studs are from there also. I actually did the stamping decal method here. If you are not familiar with that, it's when you get a plastic baggie and paint a square of clear nail polish onto it. When it dries, you stamp your design onto the clear square you made. Then you can color in your design however you choose. I apply another coat of clear over the top of that to seal it up. I let it sit over night and in the morning it will just peel off!. Then I put it on top of a coat of white polish and that's it! I may to a tutorial in the future to show this method. :) Round studs: http://www.bornprettystore.com/500pcs-12mm2mm3mm-mini-gold-silver-round-stud-rhinestone-nail-decoration-wbox-p-12411.html .  Use my 10% off code ANGELI...

Valentine's Date

Here is another Valentine's Day nail art idea! It looks like two people going out to spend the night on the town. The girl has a diamond necklace and the guy is in his bowtie ready to go. The stamping plate I used for this one is MoYou London, Bridal Collection # 05 .
