China Glaze Tree Hugger + Konad NOTD


When I paint my nails, I usually have no idea what to do and what color to choose, so I just grab the ones I haven't worn yet.
I picked up OPI Green-wich village and painted my nails... then thought it looked kinda dull so I topped it off with CG Tree Hugger and I loved the result! This NOTD makes me feel lucky! ^_~

Here are the nail polish I used:
OPI Natural Nail Base Coat, OPI Green-wich Village, China Glaze Tree Hugger, Konad Special Nail Polish in White and Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat

also tried my free fauxnad plate from bornprettystore and my Konad stamper set
I don't know if its just me but its so hard to pick up the image! it took me countless tries before the image stuck to the rubber. KONAD FAIL. I gave up on my right hand after an hour of trying really hard, it drove me crazy! >.<

on another note, I want to thank all of you who left comments on my last tag post, appreciated my handwriting and found it 'cute', OMG. All my life I have been frustrated and envied my friends who have the perfect cursive or block type of handwriting. Hahaha! Thank you lovelies for turning my frustration into joy. BIG bearhugs to all of you!
♡,
G

    Cute NOTD!

    I have major problems with konading too. One thing that was recommended was to make sure that the nail polish remover you're using has a lot of acetone in it. Also make sure that you rub your stamper onto a piece of paper to remove the "film" that is on there when you initially start using it. (I'm assuming that you did this since you're already stamping with it.) Despite all of this advice that I'm giving you, as it was given to me, I'm still having problems stamping the image. Frustrating, isn't it?!

    wow, such fresh and pretty spring colours! I've not tried Konading my nails before. The clover looks great on your nails.

    You should be proud of your handwriting, it's one of the nicest I've seen!
