Still so behind on this challenge! :( Anyway for the "Roses" prompt I did some stamping with Sally Hansen Color Foil Rose Copper using Pueen plate SE03A from the Encore set (my full review, unboxing, and images here). Base is Layla No. 23.
I really like this image and the color of Rose Copper but I think maybe I should have used a different base color. I think there wasn't enough contrast between the white and light pink metallic... Maybe black or a dark red base would work better? It's a pretty mani from certain angles when the light hits it right, but most of the time it ended up looking like I was just wearing a pink frost... :( see below
I think this is one of those designs that looked amazing in my head but didn't really work out that well. What do you think of this mani? Do you ever envision some great mani and then it just doesn't turn out as you were expecting?
It's not too late to join this challenge! Full rules here
Agree, it definitely looks really good in certain angles but too bad it didn't work out too well in the end. Oh well, at least you tried! :)
ReplyDeletethanks Lisa! at least I was able to capture it when it looked good I guess... I hate it when I'm not able to capture the beauty of something on camera!
DeleteI think it looks great. I wish I had some of those Colorfoils to stamp with :)
ReplyDeletethanks! I can't wait to play with them more! :)
DeleteThese are such pretty roses. I love the looks of these Sally Hansen foils :-)
ReplyDeleteme too! i'm having issues picking them up with my squishy stamper somehow though :( i didn't have any issues with this mani since I used the hard red konad one but I just broke a nail and am holding it together with a tea bag and super glue... so no pressure on it for a while!
