Hello!
You guys you guys you guys I am so excited...My first book is coming out soon and I'm gonna have some news about that soon! I've seen my cover, and I'm planning out a manicure inspired by it...watch this space...
In the meantime, we're gonna take a look today at another new plate from Dixie Plates, her Spring 02 plate. I did a video using this plate to give some of my tips for layering images successfully, which you can see here (including how to fix some errors I make along the way, hehehe!):
Here's an up-close shot of the plate itself:

And here's a shot that shows how big the images are:
On to the manicures! I've already shown you one manicure featuring images from this plate, but here it is again if you missed it, showing a way to use the individual flowers:

Base Polish(es): Girly Bits Cosmetics Eggplant One On Me, Forget Me? Not! and Spellbound Nails The Veil
Stamping Plate(s): Dixie Plates Spring 02
Stamping Polish(es): Girly Bits Cosmetics Eggplant One On Me, Forget Me? Not!, Purple Heyyyys, Silver Bells, and Little Black Dress
With this one, I wanted to show an example of using the layering images as intended, but then also mixing that up with using just the top layer of the images. I love how it came out!
For the last mani, I wanted to try out one of the negative space images, and thought it would be cute to pair it with the other tulip image:
