Stamping Plate: Born Pretty Store - BP06

Born Pretty Store recently came out with their own range of stamping plates, I managed to get a couple of these in a special 1p sale. Having not tried any of there plates before I was interested in seeing if they actually stamped, and I was pleasantly surprised.

These plates come with a branded backing which means the edges not sharp.

I used Kleancolor Metallic Sapphire to stamp with and as you can see I didn't have problems with any of the images other than a tiny bit of the gender image. The moon with the fairy in it was quite a large image which I don't think would fit it all on anyone's nails but it is a very delicate and whimsical design.

I think the wand image is my favourite, I like the extra strings it has on it.

Once I have used this plate you will be able to see all of them by clicking here.

I also have a 10% off code for the website which you can use if you want to;
