Stamping Neons on black - more neon rays! BM-319

A little bit obsessed with neon rays...
Base: Orly Androgynie
My trick to stamping with neons: I'm a cheap skate and refuse to fork out for neon stamping polishes so I've figured out a way to stamp with normal neon polishes. If you try stamping with neons straight up on black it usually looks a bit rubbish, however, if you scrap some white first then quickly scrap a neon layer over the white it's like a miracle, the neon stamps wonderfully! Thanks for reading x

    AMAZING! You little genius you. I never thought of doing that, I just kind of assumed the white and the neon wouldn't 'fuse' on the plate.

    I haven't bought Bundlemonster plates since the originals, I've got to get this set though because that rays design is INSANELY cool. Thanks for sharing this! x

      I would definitely get this BM set. There are some awesome designs which I think are even better than the rays!

      When I first tried stamping with the image I wanted the lines to be straight on my nails but with the way my nails curve and the stamp stamps distortion is inevitable so doing weird angles seemed like the best solution!
