Stamping Plate: MoYou 72

stamping-plate-review-moyou-72

This particular stamping plate is from MoYou, it is backed which helps stops the sharp edges from cutting you, which is a good thing for clumsy people like me.

stamping-plate-review-moyou-72 stamping-plate-review-moyou-72

There are seven images on this plate, hand and foot prints as well as some paw prints.

stamping-plate-review-moyou-72

All of the designs stamped relatively well, the hand print didn't transfer properly here or did the footprint however this was my first attempt at using the XXL squishy stamper and I think that could be the reason for the problems I was having. This is a great plate for doing Halloween or crime scene nails.

#2014BloggerChallenge: Nails - Pink Corsets

I saw these nails on Wendy's Delights, she was actually doing a review of some nail transfers but I thought I would attempt doing these freehanded myself. It has been a long while since I did corset nails as well.

Stamping Plate: Bundle Monster 224 (BM224)

bundle-monster-224-BM224-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-224-BM224-review-stamping-plate

Four full nail designs and two standard ones, all of these stamped well and I think I like the haunted house or the creepy pumpkin the most. I did try and use the swirl image before but I wasn't being creative enough and failed at making it look good.
