Adventures in Stamping - National Pet Week

Hi Goddesses



You find me this morning in a blissed out mood.  I am on holiday all week, then there's 2 bank holidays, I've had my DRK-B and 3 Dashicas in the post PLUS 100 new polishes - what's not to love ?  




I'm so glad National Pet Week won this week's challenge, as I've been itching to try paw prints for a while!   I'm not going to go into too much detail about the mechanics of how this mani came together, because I have a plan to cover that later in the week.




This is a base of Cult Nails My Kind Of Cool Aid, sponged with OPI Give Me The Moon, a really sensational grey polish.  It's not a polish I would expect to like, but the shimmer in it is awesome.



I then stamped using Konad black polish and DRK-A for both the patterns.



An interesting fact about the DRK plates.  The engraving is so good, you can sometimes get 2 stamps out of the same plonk.  Voila les paw prints.  The index finger got the fresh stamp, and then I did the ring finger with what was left on the stamper.  Now, they're not identical, but I still think the ring finger is acceptable.




Short and sweet - I have so much playing to go and do :) enjoy xxxx
