Today's nail art is inspired by lace and intricated designs.
As you know I have an affiliation with the online store Born Pretty Store.
I was very excited to try one of their new stamping plates (plate number BPL-027).
The stainless plate measures 6,5 x 12,5 cm and has a white vinyl backing for increased ease of use.
Each plate comes in its own branded protective paper sleeve. The designs are well engraved onto the plate and covered with a blue protective film which needs to be removed before use.
For stamping I used the new Born Pretty Store jelly stamper, it is my favourite at the moment.
Here is a small video to show you the plate and the stamper.
As you can see, the plate has ten designs, 4 are bigger and square (3 cm x 3 cm), these are the best for longer or larger nails or for toe nails. These four designs show optical and kaleidoscopic patterns.
It's very easy to use this plates. Herre there is another short video and stamping demonstration.
The other six designs on the plate are a bit smaller 1,7 x 2,3 cm and display arabesque and elegant compositions.
That's why I had the idea of the lace nail art.
As base I used a sheer black polish. You can buy one or do it yourself mixing a clear nail polish and a few drops of a black nail polish.
Then I stamped the image on the nail with a regular black nail polish. I painted the rest of the nails with a dusty pink colour and I added a little pink stud on one accent nail.
That's all for now!
Best wishes,
Laura
