Hello!
Remember the olden days when there was no such thing as clear stampers and layering plates? Good times...NOT. Thank goodness we're living in more enlightened times, and thank goodness for these layering plates from Messy Mansion:
Today we're gonna take a closer look at Messy Mansion's Crystal 01:
Messy Mansion's Crystal 01 |
If you're on your way to a party or just want to look like you've got a party on you hands, this is the plate for you! Presents and banners and balloons, and even ice cream, all done in layers so you can get all the color your heart desires.
The images are all different sizes, so here's a shot next to a ruler to give you a sense of how big they are:
And how do they stamp? Really well:
I did this on camera, so my layering isn't perfect, but you get the idea!
For my sample mani, I wanted to play around with the bows, and was inspired to pair them with these cute bow charms sent to me for review by Charlie's Nail Art:
To play up the pink and white of the charms, I started with a base of Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer Best-Selling Show & A Love Such As This, and Spellbound Nails Milky Way. I used a dotting tool to add polka dots, and then stamped my bows with Messy Mansion Chalk and Petal, and then added on my bow charms:

What do you think?! I love this soooo much, it's so pin-up and retro and cute. And I love how all of these colors play together! And I was impressed--these bows stayed on much better than I expected them too, I think because the edges are rounded, so they didn't catch as much as I expected them to. I wouldn't expect them to stay on for days at a time, but for an event I think you'd be okay. :)

Super cute polka dot and bows design on the nails. Love it.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!
DeleteLayering plates look like fun but even with a clear stamper, I don't know if I could ever line them up well enough!
ReplyDeleteYou can. You'll have little slips (like my pinky...wait, what? What pinky?) But honestly, IRL they're pretty invisible. It's only when you take pictures and blow them up that anyone even notices, lol!!
