Wedding Weekly: Veil (Nail Challenge Week 2) AND My First Stamping Attempt!

Here it is! My very first attempt at stamping :) I was pretty pleased! It was super easy. The design didn't fully transfer on a couple nails, but not too bad for my first try.

I used a *really* old L'Oreal Sheer Beige and NYC French Tip White.

I used 3 coats of Sheer Beige.  It has a nice subtle shimmer that is more visible wet than dry, but you can see it a bit in this photo.  In most light it just looks like a creme, though.

This was my very first nail.  The complete design didn't transfer, but this was just about the placement I was going for.  I wanted this little starbursts to represent the beading I had on the edge of my veil so I wanted to stamp them on the edge/corner of my nail.

But, on my second stamp my placement was way off, so the design became random :/  I still like it, though.  After I took these photos, I added a clear top coat and it looks even better.

I don't have a lot of photos with my veil on, but I love this one.  Me with my four little sisters :)

In his photo you can see the beading detail on the edges a little.  Thats what I was going for with this mani.  The little starbursts were supposed to be the beads on the edge, but since this was my first stamping attempt, my placement was not the greatest.
