UberChic Beauty Lovely Leaves 03!

(Press samples and affiliate links ahead!)

Hello!

Hey guys! Today I have an awesome fall plate to show you, UberChic Beauty's Lovely Leaves 03. To kick things off, here's the video review I did of the plate:

And here's a closer look at the plate:

Of course there are tons of images on here for fall, but this can be a great plate for any season, depending on what colors you use. For example, I'll show you that awesome three-layer tree image in a winter theme below--plus the swatches I do in the video are designed to show alternate season looks, too. :)

Here's a shot with a ruler to give you a sense of the size of the smaller images:

And here's a look at the swatches I did in the vide, designed to show winter looks:

The brown I used on the tree trunks was a little too dark to show the contrast with the black stamping on camera, so I apologize for that!

On to the manis! For my first mani, I did a smoosh mani with Stella Chrome's Fall Mattes collection, and then stamped over with Moyra Gold:

This reminds me of what the persimmon tree in my backyard will look like in about a week or so...

I also wanted to try out a fall chintz-type mani, so with this mani I started with a base of Girly Bits Cosmetics Old, New, Borrowed and Blue (to give a cool winter sky background), then stamped my images with Girly Bits Flame, Firebrick, and Bronze Goddess:

Next I wanted something with a slightly darker tone, so I started with Stella Chroma Cinnamon & Spice (can you tell I adore this collection for fall looks?!), then I stamped with Moyra Gold, and reversed stamped two nails with Girly Bits Flame, Firebrick, and Fire-Engine Red:

And last but not least, I had to try out that tree layering image...Here it is over Stella Chroma Perseids, stamped with Messy mansion Sterling and Carbon...and on the thumb there's a little surprise from UberChic Beauty's Halloween 04 plate:
