Flower paisley stamping

As I mentioned before, I bought a new Konad stamper and some plates recently. I've mostly just played around with stamping small designs and tip designs, until now. I tried a full-cover nail art stamp and I adore it.

I used a flowers and paisley design, it's cute and feminine.
Here is a closer view of the design.

I was originally going for a lighter pink base so that the white wouldn't stand out nearly as much, but I just couldn't resist trying it on top of a matted color. I do have a clear polish that will turn any color into matte, but I didn't want to layer too much.

I chose not to use a top coat in order to preserve the matted look.

Pink base: Sinful Colors Professional Matte Collection's Dream On
White: Konad Special Polish in white
Design: Konad image plate M64

Mothers Day nails (Konad stamping)

Sunday was my first ever Mother's Day, so for my first ever Mother's Day mani, I decided to try something new for the *first* time! I used my new Konad stamper set and stamped a pretty bow on top of a gorgeous seafoam green color.

Remember when I posted my peach mani and said I had bought *two* new colors? This is the other color, and I adore it.

It's Essence's Colour & Go Viva La Green.

The pretty bow is a french tip bow from stamping plate m56 in Konad Special Polish Black.

I know it's a bit messy, it *was* my first time ever stamping though, so give me some slack. :) I've since improved- it's way easy and adorable. I also should have cleaned up my cuticles before taking the photos- but as a mother on mother's day, I had a baby who needed to be held asap, lol.
