Secret garden nail art! Vintage flora nail art.

Hello!
Today I'm here to show a new nail art!
Few days ago I received a nail mail full of new item from Born Pretty store www.bornprettystore.com.
This stmping plate has inspired me immediately.

The packaging has a beautiful floral patter too.

This plate is perfect for spring and summer.
I was amazed by the details and how it is deeply and well engraved so that the design will transfer perfecly on the nail.

The designs are big enough to cover larger and longer nails but you can also select a small part of the image and stamp it on smaller nails,

I have a lots of plates with flower motif but I have never seen such a variety of spieces.
It has many flower species: cyclamen, hibiscus, daises, cala lily, daffodils, gladiols and roses.

Here is a small stop motion video

For this nail art I wanted to use all the designs available on this plate.
So I thought I wanted to give the effect of a vingtage nail art inspired by the book "The secret garden".

I started off with a dusty pink base nail polish on all nails and then I randomly added some staines and strokes in mauve, grey, and gold tones. I concentrated the colours on the edges of the nails so that it looks like aged ink and old paper.

I let it dry and I sealed it with a clear mat top coat. Then I stamped the flower patterns with a burgundy /mauve nail polish.

For some designs I did a reverse colouring technique: I filled some flowers and some butterflies with a light pink colour to add more depht to the designs.

Here are some pictures that show different solutions I tried on some fake nails.

I hope you'll like it!

Comics/ pop art nail art!

Hello!

This month I have a special nail mail full of goodies offered by the bornprettystore.com online shop.
The company was so kind to send me some products to to try and show you.

The first item I want to talk about is this beautiful plate inspired by comics and pop art.

The plate shows juxtaposed sequences of panels of images and also some text in speech ballons or caption.
The comics book culture is gaining more and more fans and it became a manicure trend featuring different techniques and methods.

The best thing about this trend is that you can make your nails look like the pages of a comics book and play with your imagination to create your unique story.
 Moreover with this stamping plate it is super easy!
You can go for a simple style and stamp with a black nail polish over a white matt base like I did on these stiletto nails.

The stainless steel plate measures 6,5 x 12,5 cm and includes various designs in different sizes.
Each Born Pretty Store plate comes in its own paper sleeve and has a white vinyl backing for protection.
The designs are engraved very well and the image is tranfered on the stamper with no problem.

Please stay tuned for the colored version on oval nails! Coming soon!

Lot of love
