Dixie Plates Summer 02 plate + The Digit-al Dozen "In My Garden" = Cocktail Time and More!

(Press samples and affiliate links ahead!)

Hello!


Today is the last day of The Digit-al Dozen's "In My Garden" theme, and since I spent the other four days showing you thinks that exist in my garden, I figured today I'd show you something I do my garden.


To do that, I'm going to use Dixie Plates Summer 02 plate, and since I haven't shown that to you yet, let's take a look at it. Here's the video review I did of the plate:

And here's a closer look at it:

Lots of summer fun to be had! Dixie Plates' full nail images are 2.1 x 2.5 cm, and here's a shot with a ruler so you can judge the smaller images:

Here are three sample looks I did to test the plate:

For my first mani, I started with a base of Zoya Breezi, and did some reversed stamping with Messy Mansion Sterling, Banana Bender, and Holly:

Every time I look at this manicure it makes me think of a song my grandmother used to sing me when I was really little, about three little fishies and a momma fishy, too...they swam and they swam right over the dam!


For my second manicure, I started with Zoya Brighton, and then stamped with Messy Mansion Bisque and Summer Heat, then added some dots with Jingle Bells:

I must admit, I love this one shiny, but I really love it matted:

Okay! Now on to the one I did for The Digit-al Dozen! One of the things I love to do in my backyard is go out there and sit with hubby and enjoy the garden over a nice drink of some sort--he usually goes for wine or beer and I usually go for lemonade or iced tea. So I did a matted version of my cocktails design to celebrate those relaxing moments. For this mani I started with a gradient of Zoya Sandy, Karen, and Sally Hansen Orange Impulse, then I stamped with Kaleidoscope Black and Moyra Silver:

So that sums up my garden! You can buy this plate either directly from Dixie Plates, or if you're in the US and Canada, from Lantern & Wren. And don't forget to follow Dixie Plates around the interwebs.
