Crystals and Clear Jelly Stamper

This is the output for the week ending today.

Back in major love with crystals – good, as I could literally put on a full panto production where everybody and every piece of set is completely covered in crystals with the amount of nail rhinestones I own.

So, these are all Pintrest inspo designs – straight lines with caviar beads still proving tricky.

And ordered some Clear Jelly Stamper stamping polishes from Bohemia Stamping. Had to give them a little try. The colours I have ordered don’t seem to be that brilliant, they are muted, totally not my style, but I kinda have all of the other colours, so wanted to broaden the collection, not repeat it.

They are amazing for stamping though, and coconut and ice grey are just enough off white to create almost invisible backgrounds which should be fun to play with.

Decided to broaden the collection a little further so managed to bag a bundle off Vinted. Hopefully they will arrive soon, and I can play a bit more.

The large pink gem on nail two, top row has a massive cut right through the middle of it – which only became visible once it was attached on the nail. This one was a fancy stone, so it needed a whole load of semi solid glue underneath to hold it. Still not really figured out how best to use these.

Seen some ideas on the web where they have been used really well. I haven’t reached that standard at all.

On a plus note, was showing G some of my designs this week and she mentioned “they are so much better than the ones you were doing a couple of years ago – they were a bit shit really” – mega chuffed with that level of praise from the artist in the family. Inspired to keep going and improving now.

Oh and she finally has her new guitar and it sings. It is a beautiful sounding guitar. Love sitting and listening to her play, she’s so much better than I ever was.

Life is good. Caz out.
