Review: Messy Mansion plate MM76XL (or, antique lace Valentine!)

(Press samples ahead!)

Hello!


Today I have a sweet plate to share with you that I've been saving, Messy Mansion plate MM76XL. It's a plate that would work well for winter manis or Christmas manis, but I couldn't resist using it for a Valentine's Mani. :)


Here's the video review I did of the plate, along with another:

And here's a still shot:

Obviously the snowflakes are great all through winter, and the two below the ribbons look like a starburst and a little flower to me, too. The ribbons have a great country feel for a country Christmas type look. I also love the bows and hearts on the plate for Valentine's manicures, so I decided to highlight that aspect today.


Since all of the images are different sizes, here are two shots with a ruler to help you get a feel for the relative sizes:

And here's a look at the stamping quality, which is excellent:

 For my Valentine's mani, I started with a base of The Lady Varnishes Destiny, then I sponged over some Hit The Bottle Polish Champagne Shifter, and Messy Mansion Petal. Then I stamped my images with Messy Mansion Dogwood Pink:

I love the antiqued look of this, like crocheted lace over an antique chest. Not exactly non-traditional colors for Valentine's Day, but not the typical look, either. :)


You can find this plate in Messy Mansion's shop, and you can follow them around the interwebs:
