Today's design is an old burnt look pirate map. I have OPI My Vampire is Buff as the base colour. I then stamped Messy Mansion's pirate theme plate MM37 with the map design in black over the base colour. The image picked up nicely and stamped crisp and clean. I did a layer of top coat which I always do after stamping as if the next stage of a design doesn't work you can gently try and remove it using the top coat as protection for the stamping underneath. Most of the time it works! I then sponged black on my nails, then dark brown to add to the burnt look. I finished off putting the small ship stamp design on my ring finger in gold. I used OPI Honey Ryder on my middle finger as it just wouldn't be a pirate design without gold :).
There are still so many more options on this plate, you have to love just how packed full of designs it is.
You can pick up this plate and many other stamping plates and accessories at the Messy Mansion website.
Okay this is really cool! I like this piratey design and stamping! :-)
ReplyDeleteI was so happy with it, it worked out well. :)
DeleteThat is a terrific design! So very creative, with just the right polishes! Love how you 'distressed' the ship nails. Thank you for the beautiful photos.
