Black & Silver Rose Theme Nail Art – Born Pretty Store Image Plate Review

Press Sample

I have always had a lot of trouble with stamping and usually just end up messy and frustrated in the end. I can’t seem to get the whole image to transfer (either to the stamper, or from the stamper to my nail) and it’s rarely opaque so I have to fill it in with a paint brush. But with these Born Pretty Store stamping plates and stamper I had no trouble at all! I have now fallen in love with stamping and can’t get enough.

Black & Silver Rose Theme Nail Art

For this rose themed look I used a new stamping plate called “Black Cat & Rose Theme” from the Born Pretty Store. First I painted three of my nails black, and my ring finger with an awesome Wet n Wild glitter called “New Years Kiss”. It’s a pretty silver glitter with little blue metallic bar glitters interspersed.

Next using the stamping plate I transferred the individual rose onto my ring finger using the black nail polish. Then I used the middle rose pattern from the plate and a silver polish to match my accent finger. Last I topped everything with my topcoat to seal it.

The images transferred really easily off of the plate and the stamper is just the right amount of squishiness to it. Using the Born Pretty Store stamper I was able to get all of my old stamping plates to “work” that had been testing my sanity in the past. It’s like magic!

Stamping Plate Image Transfer Instructions

  1. Apply a basecoat and base color and allow to dry completely. If you want to speed things along use a quick drying topcoat, such as Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat, and you can stamp in about 30 minutes.
  2. Apply a different, contrasting color of nail polish onto one side of the image you want to transfer. I suggest using a nail polish that is opaque or mostly opaque in just one coat.
  3. Position a scraper, credit card, or thicker cardboard at about a 45 degree angle from the stamping plate and quickly scrap the excess nail polish across and off of the image you want to transfer.
  4. Quickly take the stamper and press it straight down onto the image plate to transfer the paint onto the stamper.
  5. Depending on the squishiness of your stamper either stamp straight down onto your nail, or roll the stamper from one side to the other, to transfer the image onto your nail.
  6. Using a dry fan brush gently brush off any loose and dry nail polish.
  7. Seal with a topcoat.
  8. Using a clean up brush remove excess nail polish from around nail bed, or you can use a peel off basecoat product or white glue before starting and peel it off when done.
