Born Pretty Store review: Stamping plate BP-L007 - Black leave stamping pattern on mauve

This beautiful stamping plate was kindly offered to me from Born Pretty Store for this review. You can find it on their website with this name: Vintage Damask Patterns Nail Art Stamp Template Image Plate Born Pretty L003 12,5 x 6,5 cm, item ID: 17925.

The stamping plate BP-L007 is a plate with 15 normal size patterns and 10 small patterns, they are all very interesting and eye-catching :-) I think that my favourite is the one I used for the manicure I'm showing you today :-)
Using these patterns and various combinations of base nail polish and stamping polish, and maybe adding some "extra" decorations like rhinestones and nail art studs you can get a lot of beautiful nail art creations! :-) 

Here I tried to transfer all the patterns on black piece of paper, using white Born Pretty Store stamping polish, because I think it could be useful seeing not only how the patterns look on the stamping plate, but also how they look transfered to a piece of paper :-) 

I didn't have any problem working with this stamping plate, stamping plate is engraved deeply enough to get perfect patterns and transfer them on your nails, the patterns are really clear and sharp!

I think that Born Pretty Store BP-L stamping plates are really very good choice, so I highly recommend all of them! And you are welcome to use my coupon code CYL91 to get 10% off on all your Born Pretty Store orders :-) 

Here is my Black leave stamping pattern on mauve, I hope you like it! :-)

Asa No Ha pattern manicure

Yes, I feel a little bit guilty, I admit that lately I've shown you mostly stamping manicures... But you can't blame me too much for this because I think that all of the stamping plates that I got are amazing, full of beautiful patterns, I really want to try all of them! :-) And, this is some kind of "challenge", I challenged myself to start stamping more and improve my stamping skills :-) At the beginning it was not so easy and I know that there are so many things I still have to learn, but the most important thing is that I'm enjoying that challenge and I enjoy stamping! :-)

But, when it comes to nail art, free-hand nail art is still my biggest love, so today I would like to show you one of my free-hand nail art manicures that I liked very much and I was very happy how it came out! :-) I hope you like it too! :-)

The Asa No Ha pattern is one of the most popular traditional patterns often seen on Japanese kimono. Its meaning is: Asa = hemp, No = of, Ha = leaf. The regular geometric patter, though abstract, represents overlapping hemp leaves.

The stamping plate BP-L002 is exactly that kind of plate that I adore! It is divided in two very big parts that have two differently engraved surfaces, so you get many different patterns to transfer on your nails and using various combinations of base nail polish and stamping polish you can get a lot of beautiful nail art creations! :-)
It is very elegant and I just can't stop looking at it and admiring it! :-)

I transfered some of the patterns on black piece of paper, using white Born Pretty Store stamping polish, because I think it could be useful seeing not only how the patterns look on the stamping plate, but also how they look transfered to a piece of paper :-)
