Stamping in Shapes - Australis Sweetpea, Australis Indie, Born Pretty BPL 027

Geometry plus stamping! What fun!

[Base: Australis Sweetpea
Stamping polish: Australis Indie

Australis' Sweetpea was used as the base and Australis' Indie was used as the stamping polish. Sweetpea is a nice, very pale pastel green, while Indie is a medium green. Don't be fooled by how light Indie looks in the photos. These Australis nail polishes aren't made specifically for stamping but they do stamp well in any case. Unlike nail polishes made specifically for stamping, Australis nail polishes tend to be thinner when stamped, which is why they show up as a lighter shade when used for stamping.

I quite like it anyway to be honest. It's like stamping with water colour!

I like when nail polish companies release lighter and darker shades of the same colour. It's useful to match up.

This is Born Pretty's stamping plate BPL 027 and the pattern I used for stamping is on the second row, second from the right.

Not a bad stamping effort right? I really did like how it turned out. I could have aligned them all so that the patterns on the nails were all the same and oriented the same way, but I wanted to stamp from a variety of places on the same stamping pattern.

I have to admit... I'm getting a little more hooked on stamping, so expect to see more of that over here! :)
