With my last Born Pretty Store order back in August, I purchased a couple of their stamping plates to give them a try. One of the first designs that grabbed my attention was this full image plate called QA88. I loved that there were so many different designs on the plate, and that you could either use a single pattern on all nails, or do a different pattern on every nail, and it still pulled together into a cohesive looking design.
I received my package in early September, but with the 31 Day Challenge, I didn't get a chance to try it out until now.
I matched up Orange you Stylish with Your so Vain-illa and I Can't Copa-a-cabana, as well as with Ulta3 Cocoa bean and Essie Good as Gold. The look ended up being very Autumn feeling - which is perfect for all my Northern Hemisphere readers!
I was really pleased with the quality of the QA88 stamping plate. It's nicely etched with no flat spots. This means it has smooth stamping edges and picks up easily. The plate comes with a protective blue plastic on the front and back. Obviously you have to remove the plastic from the front to be able to stamp with it, but you can leave the plastic on the back to reduce any sharp plate edges.
Here is a shortish video that I recorded as I created this mani.
Now here is the best part. The lovely ladies from the Born Pretty Store have provided me with 10 QA88 stamping plates for my readers. They will send the plate directly to the winners, so entry is open world wide.

ReplyDeleteI have been pondering for about 2 years if I should get the 3D acrylic set. I would love to try self-made 3D decorations, but... the price -even for BPS- seems so high :P
ReplyDeleteI would love to try any of the stamping plates xxx
ReplyDeleteMy (latest) fave is their rectangular stamper!
ReplyDeleteI´ve never tried anything from BPS but these nailstampin plates are very interesting :)
ReplyDeleteWhat I most want to try is their square stamper (on its way to me as I type this). The item that I like best from their offer is a bit silly - wax pencil for picking up rhinestones, beads and studs. I'm quite clumsy and this helps a lot when I want to use such decorations on my nails.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many things in that store that I want to try, but I think the one I keep thinking back to is the wax pencil used to pick up studs. Every time I pull out my own studs or stones, I always think about how much easier it would be with that wax pencil.
ReplyDeleteThe glow in the dark nail polish is what I'd like to try most, and since I haven't actually tried anything from BP, we can also call it my placeholder fave, haha.
ReplyDeleteI'm interested in trying their holos. Thanks for swatching them!
ReplyDeleteCan't decide whether my favourite Born Pretty product should be their striping tape (so many shiny rolls at such great prices, that give those fab stripy manis), or their stamping plates (interesting images for great value). But I'm sure the product I'd most like to try is their range of glitter so I can experiment with some glitter manis.
ReplyDeleteI really want to try their nail art stamp silicone, really curious with that one, since I love their stamping template
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite is the water decals from Born Pretty Store. I love how many types and kinds there are, all in one place.:D
ReplyDeleteWhat I most want to try is their square stamper.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful stamp and also beautiful mani :)

ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Dancing Peacock Stamping plate (# 16851)! And the price is amazing, Definitely going to have to grab it! And I love the all-over plate they are giving away as well. I can see SO many options and ways to wear it!
ReplyDeleteGreat design! I love it.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try one of their holographic polishes :-D
The QA96 plaid stamp template! Also, this post might be the best thing I've seen on the internet all WEEK. I've been looking for a good tut on how to make my own nail decals.
ReplyDeleteThe tartan stamping plate! My family is scottish so I'd totally love that one!
ReplyDeleteI love their plates, especially the houndstooth one! They are all so unique, and that is something that I always look for
ReplyDeleteI most want to try some of their new stamping plates. My favorite item is a black bow ring I added for fun one of of my orders and I ended up loving it.
ReplyDeleteI would love a big squishy stamper but that plate is gorgeous too!
ReplyDeleteSome of their stamping plates, I've never stamped but wanna start to give it a try! Crossin' my painted fingers!!
ReplyDeleteSo many things I want to try out, but I've been longing to try their decals (specifically, mustache decals) for quite some time.
ReplyDeleteI have never tried stamping but I am so intrigued by it! I am not very artistic sadly.
ReplyDeleteYou can get great results stamping without having to be very artistic. Give it a go!

ReplyDeleteI would like to try the square stamper out thanks
ReplyDeleteStamping plates :)
ReplyDeleteI'd want to try their matte topcoat - am currently on a quest to find a new one to replace my beloved essie Matte about you.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try stamping over some of that green holographic polish of theirs!
ReplyDeleteJust love all the stamping plates!
ReplyDeleteAny of their stamping plates (but preferably the mix patterns plate) because I've not tried stamping before but would love to.
ReplyDeleteI'd really like to try the #12 green holo - it's been on my wishlist for a while now, but I held off because it was winter and not that sunny. But now we're into the sunnier months it's definitely holo time!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to try the #12 green holo - it's been on my wishlist for some time now but I haven't been wearing holos because it's been winter and not all that bright But now we're heading into the sunnier months it's definitely time to bring on the holos!
ReplyDeleteAlso, a while back (like a year or two) I ordered a plate from Born Pretty and it was terrible, and I have been dubious since, but last time I ordered I grabbed QA86, which is hearts and also some snowflakes, and I've really been impressed - easy to use and the images came out well. So if you are like me and had a bad experience in the past, it's worth trying again.
