I don't remember exactly how this look came about. If my memory is correct, I'm pretty sure this was 100% chosen by my SO who looked through a recent purchase and got excited that I had computer images on a plate. This is the first time I ever did a full set of stamped nails, and it is definitely my preferred look. I had so much fun with this!

 

Thoughts

All of these polishes were beautiful and easy to work with. Having now used them each many times since this photo, I would gladly recommend all of the polishes and the plate I used. They're all great! I would absolutely still wear these nails, though I might use a more opaque gold just to see the lines better.

I still don't think I was using enough top coat, since this was only my second time with the Glisten & Glow. I got tip wear on the first day (which was also due to not wrapping the edges, I know) and had half of the polish gone by midday on day four. It was a little sad to have them wear away so quickly, given that it was the most I had ever done on my art at that point. Oh, well!

I also love that I had this binary wrapping paper casually lying about in my house. It made for a great and very relevant background! Not sure why I didn't think to turn it horizontally, though... I probably used the same logic that made me take a nail photo and hide my pinky. No clue what that's about! Still, it was fun, and it makes me smile to look back on this.
