I knew I wanted to do this look from the second I had the Nailz Craze NC03 plate ready.
It's kinda funny that I created the Blue China design using the plate that I originally named Russian plate, but - it all depends on the color you use, right? :) So Blue China it is!
I have a feeling this pattern will look great with other colors too, but this time I went for the traditional white and blue combination.
I started with two coats of a plain white ( I used Chic White Flag), then applied one coat of China Glaze White Cap which is a sheer milky base with gold shimmer, looks almost like it has tiny golden flakes in it. Then I stamped the flowery pattern from the new Nailz Craze NC03 plate using Barry M Indigo which was pretty sheer but it created this delicate look which I really love. Then I sealed it with one coat of Poshe.
I really love how this design came out and I think I will be creating many more looks like this one using other color combinations. I know it may seem to most of you like just another flowery pattern and it might not be as exciting for you as it for me, but I really love this pattern especially since I had a hard time creating it while designing this plate. I'm really glad it came out the way it is, and I hope that some of you will find this design pretty and refreshing even though there are so many flowery patterns on other stamping plates. I actually put a lot of thought into this on :)
I would love to hear your thoughts about my Blue China design. What colors would you use with this stamp? Don't be shy, feel free to share with me your thoughts.
