dashica - big sdp u

1 coat of nailnation 3000's black stamped with love my nails chrome - teal for two.  i may need to try to hunt down some more of this brand's polish for stamping.  it works absolutely perfectly.  i got this bottle for free with my last dashica order.  1 coat of seche over the top with no streaking. 

i still need to work on centering up images that aren't from a huge plate.

dashica big sdp v

1 coat of china glaze - son of a peach used for the base color.  i then sponged with opi - can you dig it? and son of a peach.  nailnation 3000 - black was used for stamping.  this one worked really well, i'd say probably even better than cult nails - nevermore, which is what i'd stamp with previously.  the consistency seemed better.

the opi is one that i bought when i was in high school.  guess that goes to show how long polish can stay good ;)

this one was so pretty in person.  i need to do another stamped gradient soon.

reciprocal gradient

next time i do this i will try it with 3 stripes instead of 2.  i love this manicure, have had it on since last thursday, and i just took pictures of it now. 

for instructions on how to do this, here's a video from my simple little pleasures
.  i watch so many of her videos to get ideas for water marbles also.

could have done a better cleanup, after looking at these pictures i see that now.  it looks much cleaner around the cuticles in person for some reason.  oh well.  

ninja polish - hydra

lots of pictures....this one has crazy color shift.

this is from ninja polish's dragon collection.

this is 1 coat over 1 coat of nailnation 3000 black
