Smiley Holo Stamping!

Hello Dahlings!

 

Have you entered my 1 year Blog-o-versary Give-away yet? Why not! I'm giving away a pretty decent pile o' loot & some of it could be yours with just a few clicks...

 

Now that da sun is finally coming out to play,

I decided it was time to stamp with holo polishes!

 

 Da line up: China Glaze Astro-hot & Color Club Beyond.

 

 This is 2 coats of Astro-hot. I had such high hopes for da China Glaze 2013 holos...until I started seeing swatches & reviews. While they put out some colors da other 2013 holo brands didn't offer, da linear holo effect is weak. They're pretty enuf, but they don't have much of a rainbow, they're a streaky patchy mess to apply & they don't stamp well either.

 

 I used this plate to stamp.

 

Ta Da! My stamping still needs work, but I did manage to get smileys on every nail. The lovely holo-ness of Beyond was weakened due to da thin layer of polish used in stamping, but in full sun da rainbows came out da best they could.

 

Thanks for stopping by

& don't forget to enter my Give-a-way!
