NOTD: Zoya Tangy + m71*

I have been waiting for St. Patrick's Day so that I could use this shamrock image, from Born Pretty image plate m71*.  I think it's just perfect.  I did the stamping with Green Konad special polish, and the base color is Zoya Tangy - which is very fun & bright, & if you get it at just the right angle you can see almost an orangish duo-chrome, which was of course impossible to accurately capture in pics so you'll have to take my word on it:

 

 

I got this a few years ago during Zoya's "Green Friday" - so if you participated in that lovely event, dig this one out & hold it at an angle, I was really surprised to see the color flash.

 

Thanks for reading =)

NOTD: Finger Paints Merry Mittens + m71*

Merry Mittens is from the Finger Paints holiday collection.  I did the stamping with China Glaze Passion & Born Pretty image plate m71* - since the BP plates use the same letter as regular Konad plates, I'll be denoting them with an asterisk when I post & in the tags.  I was going to use Ghetto Fabulous for the stamping but it wasn't showing up, was going to use 2030 but it wouldn't transfer - sometimes I think the Khrome polishes dry a bit faster than the older Romantiques, making the Romantiques easier to stamp with.  Anyway, here's the finished product:

I plan to have my full review of the plates up tomorrow, so stay tuned for that, and to really check some things off of my to-do list this weekend, like the top 20 =)  Also reeeaaally need to upgrade my Picasa storage before I just run into the wall when I go to upload LOL.  Thanks for reading.
