Valentines Day #VdayNailsCollab

This is a bit of a special post. I joined in a collaboration run by @dendivablog. It could be any nail art but had to include red, obviously, for Valentines Day.
I decided I would use my 2 favourite nail art techniques, stamping and saran wrap. I think saran wrap bases are great for stamping over.
I started with a base of A England Lancelot which is a black red, and then I did the saran wrap thing with Barry M White. My main intention was to lighten the black a little, so that red stamping would show up clearly but not look too gothic, not sure that worked entirely but I do love the black and white marbled base that I created, so much so that I wore it for half a day on its own (picture at the end)
I then stamped the heart shaped roses from MoYou London Pro XL 10 with A England Rose Bower.
I adore the finished look, it's so pretty and romantic .I think the shimmery red roses look great against the marbled background.
The finished collage looks great, can you spot mine? Looks like I might be the only one with a black base!
