Stamping Plate: Bundle Monster 17

bundle-monster-BM17-stamping-plate-review-over-view

This stamping plate is from the first Bundle Monster set, it is backed with branded lining to stop it from being sharp. This is exceptionally handy, without it it is easy to slice open your fingers and palms.

This plate is the first within this collection which is french tips rather than solo images or full nail images. I found all of these to stamp really well although I am yet to use them as I haven't mastered the french tip stamping technique yet! If and when I do then you can see some other designs I have used this plate in then feel free to click here.

Sunday Stamping: Favourite Colour Combination

Today I did a base of Maybelline Colour Show in Cool Blue, sponged a bit of Color Club Mrs Robinson over it and then stamped with Konad Q1 with W7 Black.
