One of my favorite nail art ladies on youtube is elleandish.  She has some very lovely manicures and wonderful “do it yourself” tips for nail art.  She did a nail tutorial called Hearts, Stars & Splatter; I fell in love with the design of the manicure and color combination.  Here is a link to go check it out and while your there follow her: http://youtu.be/_8tA_J5t-JQ

I decided to recreate the look.  Unfortunately I didn’t have all the polishes she had to create the look, so I would have to make do with what I have.

Here are the polishes I used to make the look: (from left to right)
China Glaze – For Audrey
Venique – Wingtip White
Hard Candy – Black Tie Optional
Cover Girl – Disco Dazzle
Essence – Icy Princess
Poshe – fast dry topcoat
Venique – basecoat (not shown)
Konad – Black (not shown)
Konad – White  (not shown)

The stamping plates I used are: (from left to right)
Born Pretty Plate – KD3
Bundle Monster – BM311
Bundle Monster – BM303
Plus my Born Pretty plastic blade scrapper and Konad stamper.

I started off with my basecoat, then two coats of For Audrey and Wingtip White.  I did only one coat of Icy Princess since the silver glitter was going over it.  Unfortunately my silver glitter was not “chunky” like the one used by elleandish.

I had some major issues stamping with my Konad white; it was coming out very light no matter which way I scrapped. It is very noticeable on my thumb where the double stamping was happening.  For the hearts stamp I decided to stamp with Wingtip White and had a better outcome. I topped everything off with Poshe.

Overall, I think it came out ok.  It doesn’t look exactly like hers but still I love the look.
