Hello lovelies,

 

I'm excited to tell you about a new nail project I'm part of - Nailvengers Assemble! Just to tell you a bit more about it...it's five girls doing one theme at the end of each month. This month the theme is New Year, New Technique which is quite self-explanatory. Each of us will do a new technique to us. For me it's stamping decals which I'm a newbie to.

 

Joining me in the challenge will be Sammy (The Nailasaurus), Alice (One Nail To Rule Them All), Allie (Brit Nails) and Amelia (xAmeliax)....pretty damn good girls!

 

So here's the stamping decals manicure I've created:

For this design I have used A England polishes Encore Margot, Camelot and Guinevere and Seche Vite topcoat but it is better if you use thinner and not fast drying topcoat as those won't be as stiff. I've learned this information after I created this mani and tutorials so that's why I'm using Seche Vite. The stamping plate I've used is MoYou London Sailor Collection 05 (XL).

 

Now there are different methods of creating and applying stamping decals and I guess you'll just have to find the one that suits you best. I have prepared video tutorial for three methods so hope it will help you master the decals!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've chosen a subtle colour scheme but with the stamping decals technique you can go as wild colour-wise as you want and even every single part of the design can be in different shade. How awesome would that be!?!

 

So that's all to it. If you recreate any of our manicures then please use #nailvengers, we would love to see it! You can also follow us on Facebook:

 

I hope you've enjoyed the manicure and tutorials and please check out the other blog entries from girls:

 


Hi everyone.

 

I've prepared another Valentine's Day Design and video tutorial. This time it's little bit more intricate than the Hanging Hearts I did last time. I've painted basic lace hearts and decorated them with two rows of dots creating a lace-like edge.

I have used Glitter Gal Off Your Rocker as a base colour, OPI All I Want For Christmas (Is OPI) for the hearts and white acrylic paint.

 

I've prepared a video tutorial again for this design. I'd love to see your recreations so please tag me or add #lucysstash on Instagram which I check regularly ;)

 

 


I hope you've enjoyed another Valentine's Day post and the tutorial! Feel free to let me know your feedback, I'm always looking for ways to improve the videos.

 

Have a ncie weekend!
