New stamping plate

Hello, hello!  Happy to be back.  I had some health issues last week that kinda got me down.  :(  I've been dealing with a broken ankle since June and while I'm finally out of the cast, I still have problems with the pain.  Anyway, here I am, and I got a new Konad stamping plate that I LOVE!  I bought it for the argyle stamp on it and haven't even used that one yet.  Haha, I simply fell in love with this one and used it twice this week.  So here ya go...

 For this first one, I used Essie Bikini So Teeny and stamped it with Sinful Colors Black on Black.  This turned out so pretty.

I've used some plates of lesser quality (cheap) and I can tell you that I sure notice a difference between them and some of the higher priced ones.  Definitely worth the extra money to avoid the frustration.

I had a wedding to go to last night and wanted a pretty design, so again I chose this stamp only this time I went with a lavender/silver combo underneath.

 I used OPI Lucky Lucky Lavender and did a gradient with Essie No Place Like Chrome.  I took these pics before top coat/clean up and please ignore my icky cuticles. I stamped the same design using Orly Velvet Rope.

I got lots of compliments at the wedding, which I love!  It's nice to have people notice the hard work(mostly) and thought I put into my manis.

So there you have it, my new favorite stamp.  By the way, it's Konad m60.  I'm pretty sure I'll try the argyle later this week....Enjoy!!
