Hi Goddesses
Are you sick of Halloween yet ? Lol. I am loving all the manis I am seeing, I just don't know why mine suck so much! Hey ho .....
Today I have some Halloween Roses for you .... and again, this sucks balls compared to what I had in my head :( I was very excited though that I finally got to use my gravestone polish that Kirsten sent me last year!!! It's official name is Wet n Wild Fantasy Makers Creepy Pumpkin. And it's lush !!
It's SUCH a sparkly orange, it's crazy. However, after I put one layer on, I wasn't sure it was going to build to opacity, so this became a bit of a sandwich - 1 layer Creepy Pumpkin, 1 layer Barry M Block Orange and then 2 layers of CP. After a coat of Poshe these nails were as thick and glossy as gel nails - they looked so awesome.
Can you see how shiny and sparkly this is ?? Can you ?? Isn't it just GORGEOUS? I regret waiting for Halloween to try this - it would have been a stunning summer polish.
I really was reluctant to stamp over it, but I did lol. I wanted to go with roses and barbed wire, and I wanted to use pure Halloween colours - orange, purple, black and white.
The purple I use - SH Purple Bolt - is usually a stamping winner, but sadly, it just couldn't compete with the orange, and although you can JUST about see it, it takes a lot of squinting. If you wouldn't mind, please just *imagine* how much more awesome this would have looked if the purple were opaque lol.
Both these stamps are from BM-323, and this might even be the first time I've stamped one design over another.
