Over An Orange Base

Today's Adventures in Stamping Challenge was over an orange base...this is what I came up with!


Started with a base of two coats of OPI Bride's Bouquet and Revlon Alluring Amber; topped with SV.


Stamped using Apipila P. 02 using Konad black special polish.


I had made a stamper decal using plate 12-56S for the thumb so added it.  This time, I tried it using acrylic paints and it worked well except I found the paints a little slower to dry than stamping or regular polishes.  But they did work! 

I smudged the stamper decal when I was applying it so it kinda smudged there at Fred's arm.  So I added a few random dots using black Konad special polish and CND orange.  Fixed up Fred's arm a bit with  bit of paint and a brush.  Topped everything off with SV.


I only did one stamper decal so this was my right hand...I used the same image of Fred but with plate 12-56 for the hand below.  The images are larger as you can see; Fred doesn't fit all the way on the nail.  I posted some differences in the plates here if you want to read further.


I'll be interrupting blue mani's for Autism Awareness for the Digital Dozen challenges over the next five days starting tomorrow....and don't forget to enter my impromptu giveaway here if you're interested!

Hope you're having a good weekend....thanks for looking!
