Paisley!!

Anyone who knows me knows that paisley is my absolute favorite design. And I didn't just jump on the paisley band wagon, I've loved it as long as I can remember. So it kinda sucks that it's so popular right now because like every fad, it will fade. But it's ok, I will still forever be in love with it. And in fact, this particular stamp was the whole entire reason I became interested in nail stamping. I saw a pic on another nail blog and had to know how to achieve these paisley nails! So I've been just waiting til I got this stamping thing down a bit to try my paisley stamp.
The stamp color I used was from Maybelline Color Show in Bold Gold and it stamped flawlessly. My base is from the Color Show line also called Twilight Rays. It's black with tiny gold flakes throughout. I actually bought these two colors specifically together for the paisley. The combination didn't disappoint. It turned out so lovely!! I may just do my nails paisley everyday in different colors! Ok, that's going a bit far BUT it really is going to be hard to restrain from this plate. Maybe once a month? We'll see :)

What I used: 2 coats of CND Stickey basecoat, 2 coats of Maybelline Color Show in Twilight Rays, stamping color was Maybelline Color Show in Bold Gold, Seche Vite topcoat
Plate: Bundle Monster 2012, BM-315
