Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Just a quick post to wish you a Happy Valentine's Day!!!

And here's my Valentine mani. This image plate was very difficult to work with but I like the results. I never knew what people meant when they said a plate was engraved too deeply. I had to scrape the images 2-3 times before I got a good stamp, and don't even think about cleaning the plate with cotton balls. You may as well throw it into a plate of acetone :)

I guess the problems were worth it because the mani turned out great.

I hope all your Valentine wishes came true today. Thanks for stopping by!

  4. thanks so much ladies!

    @NailsIt i just emailed you.

    @ForMeitWorks, the plate also reminded me of the Nail strips, that's one of the reasons why i got it. i wanted to be able to create the lace effect without combining multiple image plates.
