STAMPING- OPI Chevron for #NAILLINKUP

This is my first Nail Art Ideas Linkup design for the month of March. I’m excited for the themes we have this month! Especially AQUA for some reason . 😀

The theme for week 1 is STAMPING so I reached for my new Bundle Monster set! I finally got the Create Your Own 2013 set that I’ve been lusting after. I’m so excited to use them all! For this easy chevron I used plate BM-423.

I’ve never done a traditional chevron using little pieces of zig zaggy tape or anything. I’ve always felt like if I tried I would screw it up! Me and tape don’t always get along. So using a stamping plate instead was the perfect solution for me! I generally have good luck with stamping.

Besides my bundle monster plate, I used three different OPIs for this manicure. I like how the different colors coordinate and clash all at the same time for a cool 80’s vibe. Here’s what I’m wearing:

♥ Did It On ‘Em ♥ Elephantastic Pink ♥ Haven’t the Foggiest

I love this nail design! Do you use the stamping polish or do you use regular polish for the designs?

Regular metallic-type polishes usually work well for me so I used OPI Haven’t the Foggiest here 🙂

Wow that’s really pretty. The shape of your nails goes especially well with that look. For some reason it never even occurred to me that there was a plate for chevron patterns, I assumed people did them with tape. Good to know, and very nice site!
