I hope everyone has had a fantastic Christmas! Here's a vagueeeely Christmas-y manicure!

I had a lovely plate full of radial designs that put me in mind of snowflakes, so that's my tenuous connection to the holiday season...

Quick recap of my base shade - Dance Legend Velvet Mini #11, a matte-suede pink with heavy gold shimmer.

| [Born Pretty BP-L052] |
The plate I used was BP-L052 which is jam-packed with... jam-packed designs! Just look at all that... and because I couldn't choose, I made use of my 10 fingers and tried 10 designs out of the 14 on the plate!

The stamping shade I used is Oh look...its
Wine thirty from Hit the Bottle. What a great name! This is a brown-leaning red polish and went really well with the warm pink base.

Here's my right hand, featuring the middle 5 patterns on the top row in the plate image earlier in the post. I think my favourites are the thumb and middle finger here.
This was also my first time properly using a clear stamper - that is, actually looking down the middle and trying to centre the stamp properly! You can see a bit of trial and error as I stamped this hand first... =p

This one is my left hand, featuring the middle 5 patterns on the
bottom row. As you can see, some patterns don't translate as well on my small nails as you don't get much of the design on. However, I am getting better at centre-ing my stamps!

Here is the same hand, with my thumb in. I really like how the thumb and pointers turned out. Looks like the designs with thicker lines are winners in my book! Altogether, it's a really great plate and you can alter the vibe just by switching colours around.
