Paisley

Second time I am trying out my Bundle Monster plates. The positive impression only becomes more positive! Seriously, even the designes with fine details stamp very well. Such as this paisley pattern on BM-315, or as I normally call it - "cucumbaaa" : )

And just to be precise, the base colour you see is NOT black. Yes Love #504 is a dark dark dark aubergine shade, which - to my big surprise dried matte! Like this:

Then I looked at it for some minutes, and generously poured with top coat. I think I like it better this way :)

And finally, it's my first and only shade which is black_but _not_really_black.. Myself I wouldn't probably buy it. But lovely Akuma Kanji sent it to me as an extra in our swap, and I'm really greatful for her choice, because all in all I liked how it looks on me - also nice on toes in winter :)

  2. Wow! This is absolutely gorgeous. I love the color (more with a top coat) and the stamping is just wonderful. I was about to use the same stamp this morning and then changed my mind at the last minute. Love the detail of these BM plates.
    By the way, what polish did you stamp with?

    1. Thank you so much! I love the pattern, so I used it almost immediately after getting BM plates.. I stamped with CG 2030, I have only one golden chrome stamping polish, and it works great :)

    1. Thank you! :) Yes, try, but be careful with this design: you have to roll the stamp over your nails really slowly.

  9. The base color is really beautiful (I love vampy manis, especially in Fall/Winter) and the stamping is perfect <3
    Just out of curiosity, do you use a metal scraper or a plastic one (credit card)? I hate scratching plates but it seems that I can't make BM first series plates work with the plastic scraper :-( Maybe it's just me!!

    1. Aly, thank you! :) I'm rarely into vampy colours, I need a special mood for such colours :) I'm using a plastic card. I tried a metal scraper once in the very beginning, but it's totally crappy comparing to plastic. Try placing the card at 45 degrees angle and pressing harder when wiping off excess polish, maybe it will help..?

    2. Thanks!! In the meantime I found the perfect plastic card and followed your advice: finally my plates aren't uber scratched!!!
