Hi There
Today I would like to dedicate this design to my sister as we both loved She-Ra when we were younger and we love her even more now lol.
Let's get started
Here are the materials I used
From left to right China Glaze Wanderlust, OPI Just Can't Cope-acabana, Kiko black polish 275, OPI You're So Vanilla, Avon Metallics Gold Leaf, Avon Metallics Platinum Petal, Avon Metallics Arctic Steel OPI Alpine Snow, OPI Fashion A Bow, Morgan Taylor Fame Game, China Glaze Boho Blues, ASP Wow It's Dry Top Coat, Sugar Bubbles SB017 nail plate and Uber Chic 3-03 plate. I also used my Fab Ur Nail stamper and my Creative Shop Stamper.
I started by painting all the nails white using OPI Alpine Snow
Next I took a piece of scrap paper and my China Glaze Boho Blues and China Glaze Wanderlust and put a few drops of each on the piece of paper I then took my stamper and smooshed it into the poishes and then immediately stamped it onto the nails. I did this on all the nails I kept smooshing until I was happy with the design and it looked like this
I then took my Morgan Taylor Fame Game and went over all the nails with a very light coat as it is glittery and I didn't want to loose the design I had just done. I then used ASP Wow it's Dry Top Coat to smooth everything out and protect the design.
Now for the stamping I took my Uber Chic 3-03 and stamped the image of the dots onto all the fingers except the ring finger using Avon Metallics in Platinum Petal. I then used the Uber Chic 3-03 plate again and Avon Metallics in Arctic Steel to stamp the corner stripes onto the ring finger.
Now I stamped the image of She-Ra onto my stamper using Kiko black polish in 275. I had to shrink the image as the original was too large for the nail
I coloured her in using OPI You're So Vanilla for the skin, OPI Just Can't Cope-acabana for her hair, OPI alpine Snow and Avon Metallics in Gold Leaf for her clothes and OPI Fashion A Bow for the ruby in her head dress. When this was dry I stamped it onto the ring finger over the stripes and this is the fininshed result
I hope you like the design as much as I do
Thank You for reading

Hi There
I just got my delivery from Rainbow Connection and this idea had already popped into my mind when I saw the plate. Tank Girl Camoflage nails.
Let's get started I hope you enjoy.
Here are the materials I used
From left to right OPI Matte Top Coat, OPI You're So Vanilla, Kiko Black 275, OPI Christmas Gone Plaid, Mundo Da Unas Neon Pink (29), Ruby Wing Kitten Heels, Fab Ur Nails Stamper, Creative Shop Stamper and Scraper, OPI Alpine Snow, ASP Wow It's Dry Top Coat, Sugar Bubbles Plate SB017 and Fab Ur Nails Fun 19 plate.
Let's get into the design
First of all I painted all the nails with 2 coats of OPI's You're So Vanilla
When dry I Stamped using Fab Ur Nails Plate Fun 19 and OPI Christmas Gone Plaid and used the camoflage image on the top right of the plate. It looked like this
I then used the same image but I used Kiko black polish 275. I turned the image upside down as not to cover the green, you should now have something like this.
Next I used ASP Wow It's Dry Top Coat to protect the stamping underneath. I now did the decal using Sugar Bubbles plate SB017 and I used the image of Tank Girl. I coloured her in using OPI You're So Vanilla for the skin, Ruby Wing Kitten Heels for her hair and OPI Alpine snow for the cigarette this is what it looked like on the stamper
I had to shrink the image as it was too big for the nail.
Whilst the decal was drying, I used Mundo Da Unas Neon Pink (29) to stamp the words Tank Girl on the ring finger using Sugar Bubbles SB017 plate again.
Now that the decal was dry I stamped the decal onto the middle nail
Finally I wanted to do a matte top coat but as most of you know they tend to smudge the stamped design so I top coated my design with ASP Wow It's Dry Top Coat first and then when this was dry I went over with OPI Matte Top Coat.
This is the finished design, I love this as I was a child that grew up in the 80s and when I first saw this film I was in love with it immediately. Hope you like the design as much as I do
Thanks For Reading

Hi There
Hope you all have had a good day. Today in Yorkshire it has been the first day of summer it has been hot and sunny so I wanted to do some nail art.
I decided to use pigments and polish and stamping to make some summery nails
These are the materials I used for the design
From left to right I used my creative shop stamper and scraper, Seche Vite top coat, Kiko black polish number 275, Gelish Top It Off, Gelish gel polish in One Cool Cat, Gelish gel polish in You Glare, I Glow, Gelish gel polish in Sea Foam, Gelish gel polish in Arctic Freeze, Gelish gel polish in My Carriage Awaits, Uber Chic plates 1-01, 1-02, 1-03, 2-03 and pigments in colours Neon Orange, Neon Green, Neon Yellow, Neon Pink and Neon Blue
I first started by creating acrylic nails on my nail trainer I went for a coffin shape
Next I painted all the nails a different colour I painted my thumb in Gelish polish Sea Foam, My index finger I painted in Gelish My Carriage Awaits. My middle finger I painted with Gelish You Glare I Glow, my ring finger I painted with Gelish One Cool Cat and the little finger I painted using Gelish in Arctic Freeze
As you can see the colours aren't exactly neon so I took my neon pigments and went over each colour with them as the polish was gel I left the tacky layer on the polish and took a soft brush and dabbed it in the neon pigment and then patted it onto the relevant nail. I used neon green on the thumb, neon orange on the index finger, neon pink on the middle finger, neon blue on the ring finger and neon yellow on the little finger.
I then top coated all the nails with Gelish Top It Off to seal in the pigments
Now I get to play with the stamping. I used Uber Chic Plate 1-03 on my thumb and stamped using KIko black polish number 275 and used the image of the large open flower. For my index finger I used black Kiko polish and Uber Chic plate 1-01, I used the leafy pattern. For my middle finger I used Kiko black polish and Uber Chic Plate 1-02 and I used the image of the rose. For my middle finger I used black Kiko polish and Uber Chic plate 2-03 I used the image of the palm trees. For my little finger I used black Kiko polish and Uber Chic plate 1-01 and used the line with the heart on it . When the design was dry I top coated it using Seche Vite.This is the finished design
What do you think I think the colours are very summery and the stamping plates stamp excellently. One reason why I used these plates is that I had bought them and had never gotten around to trying them but I am very happy with the result.
