I’ve gotta be honest: I had a hell of a time coming up with today’s stamping manicure. Not only was I having some serious mani inspiration block, but my camera was giving me a lot of problems and wouldn’t focus. The only way I could get it to focus was to change my hand position which is why today you will see a different angle. Things just weren’t working out for me! When I started thinking about what I wanted to do, I remembered how much I love Butter London Wallis so that is where my mani started. Let’s take a look at this gorgeous polish.
Butter London Wallis is like a perfect combination of gold and green and just looks incredibly rich. A metallic olive gold you say? Yep, perfect description. Here I top coated it with Seche to give it a nice shine.
And here I applied a matte top coat over it. Doesn’t it look even more amazing?
I the picked a design from Bundle Monster plate BM-319 and stamped it with my black special polish. I initially wanted to mattify the whole design, but it just didn’t look as great because there wasn’t that much of a contrast. I much prefer this as a shiny manicure.
So what do you think of this mani? I’ve gotten a lot of questions about stamping and what I use and how, so I was thinking about maybe doing some sort of tutorial? There are a lot of tutorials out there so I don’t want it to just be boring and/or redundant. Would you guys be interested in this? Don’t forget to check out the other Stamping Saturdays manis from the other participants. Thanks so much for the visit today, and I hope you enjoy your weekend.
This looks great as always! Love the base of this mani, very cool green.

Wallis looks amazing on you. I’ve considered buying it, but it makes my skin tone look sickly. My stamping mani looks like trash compared to this.

This turned out perfect as usual 😛 It feels very mature to me.
hmm.. this polish is one of those ‘fugly’ ones in my book.. but it makes it so much better with stamping over it!!

Ugh, I love Wallis on you! When I wore it (on my last trip to Baltimore that was a complete and utter nightmare – why I remember that I was wearing this polish on that trip, I don’t know), I wasn’t that into it, but I did get compliments on it, so…there’s that, haha. Anyway, this looks rather fancy pants. 😉
Yes, do a tutorial! Maybe I will stop being a turd if I see one from someone I know, lol. Maybe between yours and Nicole’s combined, I’ll finally figure it out.
WOW WOW WOW!!!!
Yes share some tips for us dumb folk (aka me)
Love this mani! Wallis is one of my favourites 🙂
Is stamping saturday open to new contributors……… I’ve been through a phase of buying MoYou plates and a weekly stamping challenge would be a great way to motivate me to use them all! lmk if I can join in!
