This is the Kaleidoscope BPX-L021 stamping plate from Born Pretty Store and as you can see, it has quite a few images on it. Thirteen in fact and each one is large enough to cover most nails.
At first, I just wanted to do a tester of the plate, and see how the images stamped and what they looked like on the nails. My nails are quite long and as you can see, only part of the image covered it which means if you have longer nails, you’re sorted. The image is etched perfectly, with no imperfections and just deep enough to get the perfect stamp. The black I stamped with is Barry M Black Forest, which is not a stamping polish and the silver is Colors By Llarowe Sparkling Diamonds, which is a stamping polish. Both stamped perfectly.
The other thing you can do with this plate is to make stamped decal nail art. The biggest image picks up really well, covers nearly the whole stamper and looks fantastic when coloured in. I used A-England Ascalon, Holy Grail, Order of the Garter and Gloriana for this, then I coated it in Polished By Leanne Lurking Nightcrawler, waited for it to dry and flipped it over.
I then cut it up into equal pieces and applied to the nails, then topcoated with one coat of Seche. I didn’t really like this mani to begin with but the more I look at photos of it, the more I like it. It’s quite different from something I would normally wear and Nightcrawler is the perfect base. That one off centre decal on my index nail is driving me insane though, aaaarrrrrrrggggggghhhhhh!
