Day 18 for the challenge. A few things pop into my mind when I think about that number:
- I didn't know I had enough creativity to get through to this day
- I don't know how I'm gonna come up with my own ideas when the challenge is over
- I'm posting this the day it is supposed to go up
- My right hand is an awkward poser or it needs to find its own poses
I didn't want to take off my last mani (if you're in a desktop/laptop and have a keyboard, press the right arrow key to get to it and the left one to get back to this one, you know you want to try it...), so I brought out my right hand to play. Yeah, that means I have different designs on each hand. :)
I started with two coats of the super-buttery, non-streaky metallic polish called Crazy Fancy Love by Essence. It's actually a greenish rose gold multichrome but all the stamping doesn't really let its greatness shine through. Once I let this beauty dry, I stamped a what-I-think-may-be reeds pattern from the plate BM-406 with Ulta3's Frog Prince. I didn't know this could stamp as well as it did but I wanted a green and that was the opaquest one I had so I gave it a go. I stamped the roses with Konad Special Red Polish and the plate BM-323. I sealed it all off with a coat of Seche Vite before cleaning up.
I usually clean up before top coating a mani but I figured if my left hand strayed, the brush would remove the topcoat and not the stamping. Looks like that was the case but the cuticle edge was messy. Better than a half stamped hand?
I think the above photo is a right hand pose, if I tried it with my left my fingers would be super crooked.
Check out what the other talented ladies have come up with for this prompt.
Till next time, which I know I will be late for.

ReplyDeleteThank you! The combination of colours grew on me and Crazy fancy Love is a really pretty multichrome. Totally didn't do it justice in these photos.
