Review: Stamping plate QA39 from Born Pretty Store

Hello!

Today I have a review of stamping plate QA39, from Born Pretty Store. I think a lot of people don't realize that Born Pretty Store sells stamping plates and supplies, and think of them more for other sorts of nail art, so I'm glad to show this side of what they sell. :)

First, here is the plate itself:

QA39

Originally when I saw the plate, I wanted to do a manicure with the statue of liberty, and I still do. But when it turned out that the timing of the review was going to be right with Valentine's Day, I knew I had to do the hearts and kisses stuff instead. Plus, since I put together two anti-Valentine-establishment manicures, I figured it would be nice to do a positive one, too. :)

I started with a pink base (I'll show the polishes to you on their own later this week), and then put down a background with the Louis Vuitton image and a darker pink, so that I could test out an image with smaller detailing on it. Then I stamped the 'Kiss' and heart images over that with Konad white polish. Here's how it turned out:

Happy Valentine's Day!

The plate worked beautifully; all of the images stamped well, except where my own imperfections were at fault. On a couple of nails my stamp didn't reach quite to the end, and I have one heart that blurred a bit. But if you look at the close up of my index finger, you can see how well the images stamped:

Up close and personal. :)

Please pay no attention to the teeny glitter I couldn't get off from my last manicure, lol! Far away shots are so much better...sigh...:P

I know what you're thinking--OMG, Michelle, this is a PINK manicure, with TWO colors of pink, and it has HEARTS!! Is everything okay? Are you undergoing some sort of crisis?? Hey, what can I say...even an anti-pink, anti-hearts girl like me has a soft spot for Valentine's stuff that shows through now and then. :)
