Konad Double-Stamping Trial

I’m really, really out of practice with Konad so I decided to have a little go at it this evening.

This is 2 coats of China Glaze Sugar High, and the design is from plate M64 stamped with Color Club Dark Romance. But, I keep my nails a lot longer now than I used to when I constantly wore full-nail Konad designs so I had to try double stamping! I deliberately picked that design ’cause it’s kinda ‘open’ at the end if you see what I mean – I wanted to see if it looked alright plain before I committed myself to double stamping. It didn’t look too bad I guess, but I decided to try anyway.

That’s MUCH better isn’t it? :D I’m kinda proud. My stamping in general is a little rusty but nevermind. To double stamp without loads of overlapping I had to stamp upside down and move it to different angles and stuff – it was fun and challenging! I also like how they’re not all identical, it now has more of an organic look which I love. :)

What’re you wearing on your nails at the moment?

    That looks so cool! I love it! On my nails? I did a French with Zoya Perrie on the bottom part & Mimi pon the tips then put foil hearts and crystals on my ‘ring finger’ & then put just foil hearts on all the regular nails

    well done Leanne, I have never tried double stamping, but I know it would be a major fail if I did, so I deliberately keep my nails the length of the konad stamp lol. Looks really great xx

    @Jo: You’ll get there! Willpower! ;P

    @ZuZu: That’s really cool! Thanks for the link :)

    @Rachel: Oooh sounds fun :D Your prize is on it’s way to you by the way!

    @BabyD: Thank you :) haha yeah I used to do that but then I stopped Konading for ages and let my nails get longer, and I MUCH prefer them long so it was a case of learning ot double stamp, or never Konading again… bit of a no brainer really ;P

    @Laura: Thank you very much!

    @Jen: You’re too lovely to shoot :)

    good job! my nails are too long for just one stamp right now (and i’m too busy with too little time to attempt double, so i applaud your efforts!)…so i just have lots of glitter, which you can see here:
