Nail Crazies Unite - Sunflowers

This week's prompt was sunflowers. I am not certain if the image I used is actually a sunflower but the colours are right!
I started with a base of 'Ard As Nails Oi Blondie (neon yellow!) and then stamped with Dixie Plate DP02 and A England Lancelot (black red).
Although I'll probably never be a lover of yellow nails I think they worked well!

26 Great Nail Art Ideas - Black and White Valentines

Earlier in the week I had to do white watermarble for a challenge. I cheated and stamped of course using Dixie Plate DP02 and Avon Iceberg White over Colors by Llarowe Chasing a Unicorn.
I can finally wear this CBL because the gels seem to have stopped the staining, the old staining has grown out, at last and also wearing a nude gel base meant that the opacity of the polish wasn't a problem. This mani got a ridiculous amount of likes on Instagram!!
Anyway, I thought this white base would be perfect for the Black and White Valentine prompt.
I stamped a heart from Dixie DP02 on my middle finger, scribbly hearts from DP07 on the index and little finger and finally, using the Deluxe Dixie shrinking stamper, I shrunk the "couple under the umbrella" image for my ring finger.

'Ard As Nails Park Ranger and Dixie Plate DP 02

I think 'Ard As Nails is becoming one of my favourite UK Indies and the Safari Collection is lovely.
Today I have used Park Ranger which was the polish in the collection that first grabbed my attention when I saw swatches - a lovely khaki holo (although no sun today so just khaki!)
Excellent coverage, beautiful colour but really let down by poor lighting on the photos. I will obviously have to wear this again soon and get some better pictures.
I bought some new plates too so of course I had to try them out. Kate Dix has just brought out her own range of plates, Dixie Plates so I had to buy a couple - I used Dixie DP 02 with Colour Alike Fresh Mojito.
I chose one of the most intricate images on the plate and it stamped really well. I am delighted. I am not sure if I will stamp over this, I think it would be a shame to cover it up and I really like these two greens together!
