Yet another NOTD using the amazing Dashica plate I borrowed from my friend. I am totally making the most of it before I have to give it back!
I added a coat of the beautiful HITS Hefesto holographic topcoat instead of my usual Seche Vite although you can barely see the sparkle. It was so much more noticeable in real life!
I have no idea why this is the first time I have tried stamping with more than one colour but it wont be the last as I love the effect. I stamped with very old Models Own polishes that are not the most opaque but I think this kind of subtlety really suits the design :)
What do you think?

Hi everyone :) I did these nails tonight and as I took them under my crappy living room lights they have turned out rather orange toned. Can you even tell that grey nail is meant to be a Koala? Oh and the flag is full of fail :P The stamped leaves turned out okay-ish though!
After I did Charmmy Kitty nails I knew I had to do Cinnamoroll next as it has been a while since I did Cinnamoroll nails :) These ones are much better than the freehand ones I did ages ago!

A girl in the Adventures in Stamping Facebook group posted a link to this last night and I just had to share it with you....
It is an angry birds stamping plate! I have seen a plate with one angry birds character on it but this one is all angry birds designs:

Isn't it super cute?
It is from ebay seller Ixorapink whom I blogged about a while back as I previously purchased this plate from them. I promise to do a NOTD with plate A48 really soon! **makes note to self***
This angry birds plate costs $4.95 with $1.00 shipping which is just a touch under £4.00. I did of course snap it up seconds after the link was posted as I am a huge angry birds fan. Can't wait till it arrives!
Oh and I should also add that the Adventures in Stamping Facebook group is really worth joining if you are a fan of stamping nail art. There is lots of useful information to be found on the latest plates and what normal polishes work for stamping.
This my second plate from this ebay seller based in Hong Kong. I would 100% recommend this ebay store as they have a really good selection of unusual and kawaii plates and they are super cheap!
I recently got some Mavala polishes and decided I wanted to try the lovely nude 'vanilla' polish first and use the amazing Hits 'Hefesto' holographic topcoat as I have never seen a nude holographic polish.
I took some pictures of it but to be honest my pictures don't capture the beautiful holographic effect which reminds me of a milky opal gemstone.

As my pictures failed to capture its sparkle I decided to take a quick video to show you just how lovely this nude & holographic topcoat polish combination is:
This is the first time I have done this......would you like to see this on future posts?
And now on to the NOTD I did attempting to copy the fox and leaf design on the lovely Topshop PJ's I got for Christmas. My apologies its a bit messy.....my excuse is this is the first freehand nail art I have done in ages :P
