Stamping Plate: Bundle Monster 219 (BM219)

bundle-monster-219-BM219-review-stamping-plate

This stamping plate is from the second Bundle Monster set, from 2011. It is backed with branded lining to stop it from being sharp. 

bundle-monster-219-BM219-review-stamping-plate

There are five plates in this set which are all french tip designs and this plate is one of them. All of these stamped well although I don't quite understand the point of the half image (bottom right). If you have any advice or tips on stamping french tipped designs then do let me know, I need all the help I can get!

GOT Nail Challenge: Green

Today's prompt was 'green' and for this I used Sleek's Poison Ivy which I got in if not before June 2011, it also stamped quite well which was good to know. The accent nails are Barry M Greenberry which is more of a recent purchase, from May 2013.

Tri-Colour Nail Challenge: Pink, Grey and Brown #1

This is the first of the Tri-Polish Challenge I will be doing this year. This month the colours are Pink, Grey and Brown. If you want to join or want to know more about this then you can do here.

I chose to use Barry M Buzz, La Femme Grey Cream 100 and ELF Smoky Brown.

Really bad stamping job on my part, this was because without the topcoat the stamped image didn't show up over the brown.
