Stamping Saturday: Gradient Stamping

So we're back for another Stamping Saturday. I really love that Cynthia came up with this idea. Stamping was my first love and what originally got me into nail art, leading to this blog and meeting a lot of wonderful people. Plus it's really pushed me to try new things and I feel like my stamping skills get better each week.
This week I wanted to try a new technique that I've seen around, but I've never been brave enough to try it. It's gradient stamping. While I didn't get as much mix in the stamp as I'd hoped for, I'm declaring it a success. I was inspired by this post from Reinovate.
I used 3 polishes for this look. The two holos are from I Love Nailpolish, Molly (pink) and Grape Alisciousness (purple). As you can tell I stamped them over white, which is Sally Hansen's Complete Salon Manicure Ivory Skull. This is my favorite white ever and I hate that it was a LE. My image came from Winstonia's plate W-110.
What do you think of this look? Don't forget to check out the other ladies looks, links below.
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

Am I in Purgatory?

Or am I wearing Purgatory? I Love Nailpolish Purgatory to be exact. ;-) Purgatory is part of the ILNP Rich Effect collection and it has a deep teal base filled with duochrome navy/teal sparkles. I recently saw this youtube tutorial by Mr.Candiipants where she teaches how to do the design on my accent nail. I decided that I wanted to practice my line work and give it a try. Pretty much it turned out horrible, but yeah, still thought I would show you. I used all ILNP polishes to fill in the colors they are: purple - Grape Aliciousness, pink - Molly, blue - Exodus. The stripes were done with my Orly Instant Artist striper in White.
What do you think of this color? I thought I would love it more than I actually did. It's probably because it stained the crap out of my skin.
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee
