Stamping Plate: Bundle Monster 01

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

I found all of the images stamped really well, I like the sun image.

Swatch: Barry M - Bubblegum Confetti

These are two colours I certainly wouldn't usually put together, but I think it looks very appropriate for summer. I actually won both of these polishes in a recent Barry M competition. So Bubblegum is a Confetti polish, which basically is a bar glitter. In this one the pieces of glitter are light blue and white in a clear base.

I found with this Confetti topper I had to dab to get a good even coverage. The photo above is two coats of the polish and it was slightly uneven but a topcoat did sort that out. I paired it with Barry M - Mango Gelly. You could build this up to get a full coverage if you wanted to do so.

Time Period Challenge: 1950's

I originally was going to just leave this as a monochrome half moon, however I thought it was nice with some rhinestones. If you want to see my original creation then you can do so here.
