Leafy - We Stamp On Sunday

Hi all! Happy Sunday! I'm having such a lazy weekend, I really need to edit some photos so I've got something ready for this weeks posts but I just can't concentrate :P

This week's challenge over at Adventures In Stamping was for a Leafy manicure. This is kind of what I was planning from the beginning, but I wish I had used a different leaf image, and maybe chosen different stamping polishes too.

Edit: I used this method for the multi coloured stamping. To see other times I've used this method click here.
Base Coat: La Femme
Base Colour: Essie - Ballet Slippers
Stamping Colours: Manhattan - Lemonade
Manhattan - Green Piece
Essence - Kiss On Top Of The Rock
Image Plate: Bundle Monster BM 05
Top Coat: Rimmel 60 Seconds - Clear

Here's some swatches of the base colour, and what I used:
 

Hope you all liked them :] I think my favourite nail is my ring finger.

Can't Wait For Fall - We Stamp On Sundays

This week's challenge over at Adventures In Stamping was a Fall look ' Can't wait for Fall'. I had an idea for this when it was announced this was the winner, but I thought it would be way, way too much effort to try and get a lightning bolt to look like a path going off into the distance - and I didn't have a tree image to stamp. So for the sake of my sanity I changed my idea :P
Base Coat: La Femme
Base Colour: ELF - Desert Haze
Other Colours: MUA - Shade 23
                           Essence Colour3 - A Walk In the Park
Stamping Colours: Manhattan - Lemonade
                                  Sally Hansen Insta-dri - Quick Brick
Image Plates: Bundle Monster BM04, BM316
Top Coat: Sally Hansen - Advanced Hard As Nails
 Here's a pic of the gradient before I hid most of the prettiness with the stamping :]

 Here's what I used:


I hope you guys like them! This is the first Insta-Dri I've owned. Well; I bought two, but this is the first I've tried. I got so excited for the idea of owning a red that'll stamp over anything, and I love it. I need to try them both over black, but for now it will stop my lusting for a red that stamps. Annnnnd this is by far the prettiest red I own. Slap a top coat over that sucker and it really comes to life, it looks so juicy!

I know I said I'd be good and be organised, but I'm not feeling well ( I know; it's just one thing after another right?!) but will have my birthday haul post up this week for sure =]

I hope you're all having a good weekend!

ELF - Mint Cream & Models Own - Emerald Black Stamping

Quick post today, I was in a green mood, so I opted for some green on green stamping, and chose to use images I've never used before. On Bundle Monster BM11 there are two images that are the same, one is outline, and one is the solid image.

I started with ELF - Mint Cream, this was my first time using this polish, and I was so impressed with the formula. Easy peasy two quick drying coats. I don't have any swatches at the minute though sorry! I had to double stamp each nail too as the images are only small. I was only going to do an accent nail, but I didn't pay much attention while stamping, so index and middle finger have the outline image, and ring and pinky have the solid image.

Base Coat: Nail RX - Stuck On You
Base Colour: ELF - Mint Cream
Stamp Colour: Models Own - Emerald Black
Image Plate: Bundle Monster BM11
Top Coat: Models Own - 3 In 1


Please excuse the colour of my skin, it was a very, very cold day when I took these.
