The Digit-al Dozen DOES Metal - Dragon Scales

Hi Goddesses




Wow, I feel yesterday was quite an epic day for DD.  If you haven't yet, I suggest you go and check out what Jacki did at Adventures In Acetone.  It's every kind of special.





Today I've got something brand new for me.  I've never stamped over glitter before.  I may have stamped over a glitter polish, but I haven't applied a pure glitter topper until it was totally opaque and then stamped on it.  Thanks to the inspiration of another DD-er, Laurie, here we are :)






I fell in love with Loaded Lacquer last month due to some insane swatches by McPolish on IG.   When I checked out the shop, I also discovered this stunner - Vintage Metals - and knew it would arrive in time for Metal Week!






VM is sooooooooo glorious.   It's got all sorts of shapes and sizes and colours - copper, gold, silver, rose gold - it's all there.    It's absolutely breathtaking, and my photos really don't do it justice.






I've also have a major stamping plate shopathon recently, and FINALLY bought some Messy Mansion plates after admiring them for the longest time.






This is plate MM21 which features all sorts of dragon etchings, and I picked these spiky dragon scales.






I stamped with Konad Black.  It's ages since I used it, mainly cos I got sick of how much clean-up it needed.  To be honest, I forgot how intense it is on the nail, and how nothing else really compares, but man you can tell in my photos how hard immaculate clean-up is.







Don't forget to check out my other lovely ladies.  See you tomorrow xx
