31-Day Challenge #15: delicate print

When I saw the word "delicate" in today's prompt, I knew I'd be stamping. I ended up choosing this really intricate labyrinthine stamp from Winstonia plate W112.


I wanted some interest in the background, but not so much that it would distract from the stamp. I ended up using a white background (Sinful Colors Snow Me White) and sponged two colors per finger on top:
  • index finger: Zoya Sweet and China Glaze Peachy Keen
  • middle finger: China Glaze Peachy Keen and Sally Hansen Lightening
  • ring finger: Sally Hansen Lightening and Essie First Timer
  • pinky: Essie First Timer and Essie Lapiz of Luxury
I used Revlon Stiletto for the stamp.

Today's mani: dotted skittles tips

I feel I've kind of made up for my somewhat disappointing dotting performance of the other day with this mani. Not sure where I got this idea, but I know I've seen something like this before. Here I am hanging out with my scorpion buddy:


I like the mix of different colors and dot sizes on each nail! Kind of reminds me of fish eggs.


Colors I used:
  • base: Revlon stiletto (a one-coater!)
  • thumb: OPI The "It" Color, Julep Abbie
  • index finger: Essie The More the Merrier, Color Club Twiggie
  • middle finger: China Glaze Turned Up Turquoise, Color Club Age of Aquarius
  • ring finger: Wet n Wild I Need a Refresh-Mint, Sally Hansen Blue Me Away!
  • pinky: Wet n Wild On a Trip, Essie DJ Play That Song 
Oh, totally unrelated, we're officially Massachusetts residents now!
