Those of you who follow me on Facebook and Instagram already know that I won a Born Pretty Store giveaway and I received two wonderful printed stamping plates. Today I will show you one of them, it is the Qgirl - Q10 plate which has some fashionable patterns, that are perfect for large and small nails too.
I used for this manicure the gorgeous textured polish that I won from So Nalicious, called Bird of Paradise from the Carnivale collection. I like the smooth, almost leather like texture of this beautiful peach shade, which I applied in two coats. The consistency of the polish is perfect and it is very easy to apply. It dries to a matte finish. And a big plus for me is that this polish is 3-Free with no formaldehyde, toluene or dibutyl phthalate (DBP).
On the nails where I applied the stamping pattern I used a very old polish of mine, Rapsodi from the Exclusive collection, it is a very elegant light pink shade with a strong gold reflection. I am not an expert in stamping, so excuse the result of it, I definitely need to practice more!
Even if the stamping is not perfect, I enjoyed to were this elegant mani. If you like the stamping plate you will find it at the Born Pretty Store. You can use my discount code for any kind of purchase!
I want to finish my today's post with some pictures I made at the Botanical Garden from my town (Grădina botanică "Alexandru Borza"). The hospital where I go for my monthly treatment is very near to this beautiful garden and one morning I had to wait two hours for the effect of an injection and I thought to spend this time efficiently. I made all the pictures with my phone, so excuse the quality of it.
Seeing the beauty of the nature I realized that we miss a lot of things if we just run and stress our self's and we don't open our eyes and minds. I am glad that I took this walk early in the morning, the garden was peaceful and brought me a smile on my face!
I hope you enjoyed my mixed post, I am really anxious to read your comments and opinions about it. Have a fantastic day and thank you for stopping by!
It is a beautiful mani - so elegant - and wow, that garden is amazing!
ReplyDeletefoarte draguta manichiura.Ieri mi-a sosit si mie o placuta cadou de la ei dar inca nu am probat-o.
ReplyDeleteO manichiura incredibila si o locatie de vis! Mi-ar placea sa o vizitez si eu. <3

ReplyDeleteCe model superb ai pe unghii! ♥
ReplyDeleteSunt de acord cu tine, placuta aceasta are modele foarte frumoase si cu ajutorul ei poti crea multe manichiuri originale.
Pozele de la gradina botanica, sunt incantatoare. Floarea galbena, Pachistachis din poza 7, am si eu. Sunt fascinata de frumusetea ei de fiecare data cand infloreste.
Your manicure is very pretty. That stamping plate has awesome designs and you've used it beautifully.
ReplyDeleteHowever, the garden is a showstopper and star of this post.

ReplyDeleteno way! your manicure doesn't look like you have no practice in stamping :) it's very pretty!
ReplyDeleteCe frumoasă și elegantă e manichiura! Oja texturată e superbă, dar și cea de la Rapsodi e foarte frumoasă!
ReplyDeleteAi o colecție foarte frumoasă de oje și-mi place cum „te joci” cu ele! Cât despre stampling... mie mi se pare că-ți iese foarte bine.
Pozele de la final sunt absolut superbe!
Pupici
The ones with raspberry have been limited edition; I don't now whether they are available any more or whether they are out of stock.

ReplyDeleteHi Manases!
ReplyDeleteYour comment on my post about friendship was SO touching. I can't believe you have the courage to still talk to your old friend and ask her how she is doing. You have patience that some of us don't. I hope some day she appreciates your efforts and time spent calling her and one day she will call you herself first without waiting for you to call. You have a big heart and hopefully she learns from you on how to be a good friend. Thank you SOO much for sharing your sweet words. <3
About your nails, they are SUPER cute! I see those stamps are becoming really popular but I haven't seen them in any stores yet. Do you buy them from the internet? Also, do they get on your skin when you do put them on? I've seen them in videos and they look really nice and easy to use but I'm wondering if they get on your skin when you stamp it on your nail.
Lots of love!! xx

ReplyDeletethese stamps look super pretty! nicely done!
ReplyDelete♥
a possible fantasy
Wow the garden is so beautiful. I wish we had such garden near by!! I am surrounded by building \: And I love the stamping. It is perfect. :D
ReplyDeleteLove the Carnival nail polish color!
ReplyDeleteFabrizia - Cosa Mi Metto???
I love it too, it is a very pretty one isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThank you. In my opinion these are not so well done, but the color combo makes it looks nice :)
ReplyDeleteI am glad that you like it!
Thank you!
ReplyDeleteMa bucur mult ca iti place.
ReplyDeleteOhhh, da, chiar este minunata. Nici eu nu stiam de acest brand pana nu am castigat 10 oje din Australia. Am avut mare noroc. Toate sunt speciale si interesante. Abia astept sa le incerc pe fiecare!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words. The stamping plates are from the Born Pretty Store, they ship worldwide and have a lot of patterns to choose from, so go for it, it worth trying it! If you stamp your nails and the pattern is bigger than your nail than, yes it can get over your skin too, but it can be cleaned off very easely, or if you use a peel off base coat on your skin, and than you remove it, works much easier and quicker. Any plain color looks better with a stamped pattern on it. It needs a little practice until you achieve a perfect design, but the effort worth it! I am not an expert either, but I am practicing! If you think to buy from the Born Pretty Store you can use my 10% discount code (LML91), than it is much cheaper :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, that was exactly my opinion too. These two polishes really work great together!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much dear!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, I am very glad that you like it.
ReplyDeleteGracias!
ReplyDeleteDa, este un model elegant. Mai trebuie sa exersez putin, dar chiar mi-a placut si mie aceasta combinatie!
ReplyDeleteSzivől köszönöm, nagyon kedves vagy.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I am glad you like it.
ReplyDeleteOh, Ok. Thank you very much for this info :)
ReplyDeleteIti multumesc din suflet pentru complimente, esti o draguta. Eu consider ca nu sunt experta in stampilat, dar intodeauna incerc si exersez pentru ca imi plac modelele. Te pup.
ReplyDeletethe carnival is fantanstic!!

Hi Manases! <3
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the store name. I saw their website, I am interested in some stamps! =) Thank you for the process for how to use it too. You should do video tutorials on YouTube!! I think you would do great!! Now I just need to find a base coat for my nails. I never really use one but I might just buy one soon haha.
Lots of love!! xx

Beautiful flowers!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the mani too! :)
Thank you very much!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you! :)
ReplyDeleteI am glad that I could help! To have a YouTube channel with tutorials is very time consuming, so it is definitely not for me, even if I would enjoy it to do!
ReplyDeleteReally? Well, I think the pattern is not straight and neat enough, but thank you very much for your encouragement, I appreciate it a lot!
ReplyDeleteMa bucur mult ca iti place postarea mea mixta. Te pup.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much!
ReplyDeleteSa stii ca atunci cand am cumparat oja Rapsodi, cu 2 lei, am spus ca sigur o sa arete oribil pe unghii, si uite ce surpriza am avut. Deci clar, o oja nu trebuie sa fie scumpa ca sa arete frumos :)
ReplyDeleteMa bucur ca iti plac pozele.
Thank you very much!
ReplyDeleteMultumesc din suflet pentru complimente!
ReplyDeletePrima oara cand am fost in Gradina Botanica asa de devreme (inainte de ora 8) si totul arata altfel decat in timpul zilei. Natura este interesanta! Ma bucur ca iti plac pozele!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, I am glad that you like my stamped nail and pictures!
ReplyDeleteMultumesc mult Mada. Placuta imi place mult si deja am si alte idei de manichiuri, doar timp sa am :)
ReplyDeleteMultumesc.
ReplyDeleteÖrülök, hogy tetszik.
ReplyDeleteMultumesc mult.
ReplyDeleteCand vii pe la Cluj, neaparat sa o vizitez, se merita, si sa ma anunti si pe mine, vin si eu :)
Multumesc. Sunt foarte curioasa ce model vei utiliza prima data si daca esti multumita de placuta!
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Maria, I am happy to read your comment!
ReplyDeleteWhy have I never thought that gold and pink is a fabulous colour combination? Yes, we live in the present too rarely. We should literally "stop and smell the roses" more often. The photos from the park are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOh, Rapsodi is so so pretty! What a gorgeous polish! I think the stamping looks great, it's very elegant! I love your pictures of the garden, it looks very pretty and peaceful :)
ReplyDeleteLovely manicure and very nice plate!
ReplyDeleteThe design is so elegant!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful photos you took!
I didn't know you still to have a treatment. I hope you are fine.
I love the design and love the gold color. Actually i love how you put the design and colors together! Absolutely gorgeous!. I wish there are more gardens around where I live. I need some fresh air from time to time, but it's all just dirt and dust in Hong Kong~
ReplyDeleteOhhh congratulations on your win! How awesome! I like the stamping plate and I love how you chose to wear your the design, it looks great with the textured polish! I hope you are ok and the treatment isn't too bad - I am wishing you all the best. I think it was a great idea to sit somewhere relaxing and beautiful, your pictures are stunning. I wouldn't mind having a little resting sit there! xx
ReplyDeleteLoved your mani, I really like the color combination. And congrats on the prize, the designs on the plates are great
ReplyDeleteCongrats =)
ReplyDeleteIn love of your sugar polish and your stamping =).
Thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteYes, I have to make a hormone treatment for about 5 years. Each month I go to the hospital and have an injection in my belly and each day I take pills :( Sometimes is super annoying and my metabolism changed very much, but I am happy that I live! But than, when I was in the Garden, I waited for an another thing, my doctor suspected me with bone cancer and they needed to make a very complicated examination. I've got an intravenal injection and had to wait two hours until it made the efect needed for the examination. Well, it is a long story, but thanks good I am cancer free!
