Stamping Plate: Bundle Monster 312 (BM312)

Review-Bundle-Monster-312-BM312

This stamping plate is from the third Bundle Monster set, from 2012. It is backed with branded lining to stop it from being sharp. This is useful, without it it is easy to slice open your fingers and palms which I have been known to do accidentally in the past with other stamping plates.

On this stamping plate there are four full nail images, and two single images. All of these stamped well. 

Below are some nails I did using this plate:
