Nails: Under the Sea

I did these nails a while back, I think that they look almost under the sea like. I wish I'd went on to do some nail art on top of this, perhaps Finding Nemo.

Time Period Challenge: Imperial China

This week's time challenge was Imperial China, I based my nail art around the Qing Dynasty Flag from 1889. Which was the last imperial dynasty of China. I was trying out a new nail art brush but it didn't seem to have a fine enough tip for what I wanted to do here.

This stamping plate is from the first Bundle Monster set, it is backed with branded lining to stop it from being sharp.

All of the designs stamp well, even the delicate chandler design. Out of the seven designs I think I like the anchor the best, which do you like?

You can see some of the nail designs I have done using this plate here if you like.
