Happy Friday!! Is anyone else looking forward to the weekend? I know I am! Today I want to show off a really unique stamping plate from Born Pretty Store.
This incredibly pretty Arabesque plate retails for $2.99 and since it is a full image nail plate, has a ton of design options. Born Pretty Store also has free international shipping, making this plate an incredible bargain.
This plate comes wrapped on both sides in a blue protective film, that needs to be removed before use. The plate doesn't have a paper backing, but as long as you are careful it isn't an issue. Once it is out of the blue film you are ready to stamp! The plate is deeply etched and I had no issues whatsoever picking up the images onto my stamper. As you can see, the plate stamps wonderfully, and has clean crisp lines. It is a great plate and well worth the money! The quality and price make this plate top notch!
To get this look I started with my base polish, and once that was dry I took out the Born Pretty Plate QA88 and stamped in 2 separate colours, gold and teal. I got the effect by placing a dot off each polish on the plate right next to each other using the polish brush. This doesn't have to be neat, and they need to be touching slightly. Once you have your desired colours dotted along the edge of the image, simply scrape and stamp how you normally would. I used 2 colours for this step, but as along as your work fast, you could use more. The key to this is working quickly, and having your polishes ready to be dotted on the plates, (caps off, lined up next to the plate) that way they won't dry before you scrape and stamp. After you have stamped all your nails, simply top coat, and voila! Gorgeous Arabesque nails!
This plate is so original and I don't own anything even close to it, so this is a very welcome addition to my collection! I know it is a plate I will be reaching for often since it is not only gorgeous, but also being a full image plate gives it a ton of variety! I am already thinking this plate would make great stamping decals!
