Uberchic Beauty have recently added two new mini stamping to their collections, the Garden Love and the Fourth Of July stamping plates. They have also released a new stamping plate folder for the mini plates. Yay! I thought rather than doing individual posts for each of these things that I would pop them all into the same post.
Fourth Of July
For those of you in the US you guys will probably love this plate and get a fair amount of use out of it. Those of you who aren't from the US (like myself) then never fear, these plate has something for us too. There are stars, stripes and fireworks (hello New Years!)

As soon as I saw the image in the top left hand corner I knew I had to use it. I had originally planned to use a neon base but I couldn't go past using some of my polishes. I decided to sponge on Grace-full Nail Polish's Blueberry, Grape, Lemon and Mango (all from the Fruit Salad Collection) and stamped using Powder Perfect's Black Stamping Polish.

Garden Love
Now this next plate isn't really my thing. It is full of single images (which if you didn't know aren't my favourite thing - in fact I usually avoid them) and it's not really a theme I like. I can admire pretty flowers etc but I don't like gardening in the slightest.

I kinda cheated and went for a really simple mani for this plate. I managed to get my hands on the new China Glaze My Little Pony Collection and it just so happened to have this really pretty yellow (polish is called Kill 'em With Kindness) in it so ta da! One bee mani. I do quite like the mix of images in this design. It's quite unique. Please ignore my terrible stamping in this mani. I don't think I move quick enough for the thin lines.

Mini Stamping Plate Holder
The new mini stamping plate holders are along the same lines are Uberchic folders for their other plates (but obviously smaller). It has the same faux leather, and clear double sided pages to slip your plates into. They come in both pink and black. I store all of my Uberchic plates in pink folders (you can see a glimpse of them in my nail art collection post here), and my other brands of plates in the black folders. It makes it easier for me to know which folder to grab.

The mini stamping plates and the mini plate holders are available now from Uberchic Beauty.
I am not a gardener either, although I wish I were. It would be helpful! I love what you did with the plates
ReplyDeleteThanks Christy. Gardening can't be good for nails so it's probably a good thing you aren't a gardener lol
DeleteI'm def not a gardener but always admire a well tended flower bed. I think I like the idea of being green fingered but in reality I'd hate it! That bee image is so cute though, I would def have used it from that plate too!

Hi. I was curious as to how well the stripes on the 4th of july plate stamp? Are they patchy at all? And do they actually stamp ok? Thanks in advance
ReplyDeleteI personally haven't tried them yet but I have seen quite a lot of manis using the stripes and they look really crisp so I'm going to say that they stamp well. I usually have issues with making those type of images look straight on my nails which is why I skipped over it (plus I LOVE that star design).
