Digit-al Dozen Does Metal; Day 2

Day 2 of Digit-al Dozen does metal!  This is a little different.  I got to thinking what is made out of metal (and of the plethera of items made out of metal, do I have a stamping plate to go along with it?  Everyone knows I have no free hand skills to speak of!).......and decided upon scissors. Here's what I came up with.

To go along with the metal theme, went for a silver metallic look using two coats of OPI This Gown Needs a Crown, no top coat.



Stamped using plates from Sugar Bubbles SB 010 (thumb), BFF 08 (index and ring) and MoYou Fairytale Collection-13 (middle and pinky) using black FUN stamping polish.  The cut lines on the BFF image didn't show up very well so drew them in....somewhat.....remember, I have no freehand skills, not even dashes!

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.



The Edward Scissorhands image didn't show up the best; not sure if this is a plate image issue or from stamping on the slightly textured based.

Here's the other ladies extremely creative Day 2 metal manis!

Freddy Krueger (and Vote Over at Harlow & Co!)

I'm not terribly into scary movies and have to admit that I've never seen any of the A Nightmare on Elm Street movies.  For some reason, I thought they were associated with Halloween but when I googled it to get some insight into Freddy, discovered they are just scary movies and not really tied around Halloween at all (other than later released movies). So I'm going to go with Freddy is a pretty scary guy and Halloween can be pretty scary, so I'm going to post this as part of Halloween mani's anyway; here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of two coats of NYX white, topped with SV (no pix as there's enough in this post and nothing haven't posted before!)  Stamped using red and black Konad speical polishes using Sugar Bubbles SB010 (thumb), SB008 (index), Apipila P.02 (middle) SB001 (ring) and Chez Halloween 001 (pinky).  I'm not even 100% sure that the image on the index finger is Freddy appropriate, but it looked gruesome and seemed that it should fit, so used it!

Added bats to the ring finger from an image on BM305 and red splatters from Apipila P.02.

Just thought I'd share a couple pix....here's the itty, bitty bat image that was stamped three times on the small end of the double ended Konad stamper....aka, anyone who says stamping takes no skill can go suck it!



A small portion of Apipila P.02 was stamped and placed numerous times for the splatter around the index and ring fingers.  My intent was to keep it off the face but I messed up at bit on the thumb (aka, have no stamping skill!), then tried to remove it which I think made it worse.  In restrospect, I should have left it because blood splatter on the face of Freddy is probably appropriate!  Anyway, it's only obvious in macro!
