31DC Day 1: Black & White
I had been very interested in this new challenge I read about at The Crumpet, but as I have just started this blog, I thought it would be too much for me to handle. However what better way to prove to myself and others that I can do this, then going straight into a challenge?!
So here is day 1. 2 days late. Not the best start. I am determined to catch up!!
So here is day 1. W7 Black and Sally Hansen French White Tip, stamped with Cheeky plate CH6.
I REALLY need a white stamping polish. Normally Sally Hansen works quite well, but it couldn't quite cope over black. I have added KONAD White to my shopping list!
So there we go. Not amazingly original, and I usually hand paint polka dots but I wanted to see if a stamp would give a better effect. I think it does. Nice and uniform.
Who else loves polka dots? A lovely, simple look that goes with nearly everything!

Try the Sally Hansen insta-dri white, it is supposed to work really well :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I've had an eye out for it (I know a place that does them cheap), but I haven't seen it yet. I guess I could look for it online.
ReplyDeleteHowever I like that specific stamping polishes kind of take the guesswork out. I KNOW it's going to work.
I have used the Sally Hansen Insta-dri white for stamping and it does well in a pinch, however, if you are not on a budget the Konad stamping white is the best. Sally just isn't quite as opaque but better than any other "non-stamping" white I have used.
ReplyDeleteLove it :)
