Sunday Stamping: Plate Ending in an 8

Today we were to do some stamping using a plate ending in an 8. So I had a look through my stamping plates and came across M08, and so I used some of the butterflies over a pink gradient base.

Nails: Sea Horse Nail Jewellery

For today's nails I sponged some La Femme Skyblue over Maybelline Cool Blue to get a sea sort of texture. I then stuck a little sea horse from Hex Jewellery to my ring finger.

Swatch: Look Beauty Nail Pop - Pearl Effect 20

This is the second of the two Look Beauty Nail Pop's which I currently own, there are a couple of others I like the look of but for now I own this Pearl Effect top coat which is a blue flakie. Along with Sequin Effect which is a orange / green duochrome flakie topcoat. Again I have swatched this over a black cremé polish.

This is very similar if not a dupe for Maybelline Cosmic Flash and Claire's Iridescent.

I think it looks quite nice with a matte topcoat.
