Challenge: Stamping Over a Nude Base

Hello dear readers!

Last Sunday's challenge on FB group Adventures in Stamping was to do some stamping nail art on a nude base. I find this group very fun because it stimulates my creativity when I have no inspiration.

Well, here's what I came up with:

More details below....

The base color for this nail art was Palm Springs by American Apparel. Then I did some sponging using other lighter and darker nude tones to give more dimension to the background of my design.

For stamping polishes, I used:

-Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Mint Sprint (leaves and foliage)

-Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Presto Pink (Flowers)

-Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Snappy Sorbet (Flowers on thumb)

-Pop Beauty - Thirty Seven Foggy (Light grey foliage)

-Nabi - Black (Feathers)

For designs, I used:

-XL R plate (Bird on thumb, flowers, big feathers)

-XL F plate (Small flowers, leaves on thumb)

-XL M plate (Big flowers and foliage on ring finger)

-QA23 (Vines on thumb and pinkie)

-A49 (Flowers and leaves on  index)

-m77 (Small feathers and flowers on pinkie)

Here's a detailed picture of what I did on my thumbnail using the stamping decal technique

*I will do a tutorial on this next week

 What do you think of this nail art?

Stay tuned for my tutorial on how to do a nail decal using a stamping design next Monday ;)

Red and Black Gradation Nail Art

Hello dear readers!

I  recently joined a FB group called Adventures in Stamping, which focuses on you guessed...nail stamping ;) members can post about nail polish or nail art in general but on Sundays there are stamping challenges and we have to do a stamping nail art based on the theme that members voted on.
For July 29th, the challenge was Red and Black.
This is what I came up with:

(pictures can be enlarged)

I used Rimmel - Passion as the base color. I sponged a gradation of Kleancolor Black and Red nail polishes using a makeup sponge, making sure the gradation looked a bit diagonal. I stamped floral and butterfly designs from plates A25, A43, A58, m20, m82, XL H, and XL K. I also added a tiny bit of silver holographic glitter.

Did you like this nail art? What other color combinations would you like me to use with this centered gradation?

Ice Cream & Candy Nails

Hello dear readers!

I would like to show you my stamping manicure using the full-nail design from Q1 plate from Konad that I bought last Christmas .

This is the second time I use this lovely plate. This is what I came up with this time:

I started with white nail polish as a base. For the colors, I dabbed dots of pastel color nail polishes onto a makeup sponge and pressed the sponge on my nails to get this effect. I stamped the Q1 full nail candy design using Kleancolor in black and finished with Out the Door quick dry top coat.
