Challenge: Using a plate with the # of the day you were born

Hello dear readers!

Oct. 28 Challenge manicure for FB group Adventures in Stamping was using a stamping plate with the number of the day you were born. In this case, I used A series stamp plate A25.

I used China Glaze -  Sunset Sail as the base color and a reddish brown stamping polish from Konad.

 

I really like this color combination, it gives this manicure a romantic, vintage look.

In a previous post, I've used the same color combination, you can take a look here.

I showed this manicure to my friend and she said it was perfect for Valentines Day...I should have waited  until then to do this manicure...

What do you think of this manicure? I hope you like it :)

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?
