I layered a purplish glitter over a dark blue glitter and came up with the blurple color. I think that would have been a great base for galaxy nails, but I was wayyy too lazy for all that. Simple stamping was good enough.
Also, threw down some holographic silver on the ring finger. Just can't have it all matching too much. 😛
I don't feel like I entirely have my shiz together right now so my nails have taken a back seat. I still like to do them when I can make time, though. 🙂
For anyone who's interested in nail stuff (Nancy, Morgan), these are some of the stamping plates I've got so far.
I have a folder full. Don't judge me. They are cheap, some have been gifts, and I can re-use them forever. 😛
Bundle Monster set BM-301 - BM-325
Red Angel set RA-110 - RA-121
Mash set Mash-26 - Mash-50
Cheeky set CH30 - CH55
Winstonia set W101 - W120
I'm sorry, but this is NOT a comprehensive list. I have a few random Konad's, some without a name, some weird ones I bought from ebay... It would be hard to name them all. But, the sets listed all work pretty well so if you're just starting out I would definitely recommend any of those. Red Angel would be the bottom of the list, but that's because their full-nail designs are pretty small. That's kind of a bummer. 😐
Most of these sets can be found on Amazon so just go on there and see which one has more images / designs that you like and then go for it. Sometimes the photos are really too small to see well - so in that case look it up on YouTube. People make videos showing the plates and usually do a short demo on how it works / how well the plates work so that would be really helpful.
Once you get your plates all you really need to purchase is a good stamper. You can use an old gift card or whatever as a scraper and since it's plastic it won't scratch up your plates. I hate with a passion the metal scrapers. 😳
Anyway, let me know if you have any questions! If I've done a manicure with an image in particular that you like let me know and I'll look up which plate it's on for you. 🙂
