Hey Guys,
Today I have a guest post from Makenna from A Nerd and her Nails! Hope you guys enjoy the post as much as I did :)
Over to her!!
Hello there! I'm Makenna from
A Nerd and her Nails! Hope
you've had a good weekend :D
Today I'm doing a guest post for Rajani, and she'll be doing
a guest post for me later this week. Come visit to see what she does!!
Today I have a double-stamping to show you! I finally got my
Creative Shop stamper and had to play with it a little.
After some research, I found that I didn't need to do any
conditioning. I ended up wiping it with alcohol because the surface was a bit
oily, but I didn't need to file it. After wiping, I immediately turned to
stamping, grabbing my plates. And... I drew a blank. I couldn't figure out what
I wanted to do. I hate feeling uninspired. So many hopes and dreams that I
wanted to live up to the
Creative Shop stamper... After some digging, I found
some inspiration. Growing up, I loved reading, particularly outside. My mom
always had roses somewhere in the garden, and I remember sitting on the porch
swing, reading some fantasy book, and breathing in the smell of the roses. So I
grabbed my
hehe (025) and BundleMonster (
BM-323) plates, my
MDU polishes in
Red
and
Black, and a lovely polish by
Dragon Claw Polish
called
Wolves of the North (from her Game of Thrones collection, which I
am currently marathoning).
I applied three coats of Wolves of the North on top
of my base coat of Pure Ice's Buh-Bye Breakups, as it's a little sheer,
and let it all dry. Then I top coated with Diamond Claw from Dragon Claw
Polish, and stamped on top of that. I used the script from hehe025 (which is
Regulus Black's note to Voldemort), top coated, and then stamped with BM-323 on
top. Topped with Diamond Claw, and then oohed and ahhed over by my
friends, family, and classmates.
I quite enjoyed wearing these nails, but alas, being in nail
tech school means nothing lasts more than a day or two before I have to remove
it, so I don't get to enjoy my designs for as long as I'm used to. I miss these
already!
Thank you for sticking around for this long :) I hope the
rest of your April is amazing!!!
Thank You Makenna for this wonderful Double Stamping nailart. i enjoyed it :)
