Happy Mother's Day

Here in the UK it's Mothering Sunday today. My brothers and I have been laying treats on my mum all day! She's had smellies, chocolates and flowers galore and I'm just about to go and cook a roast dinner for tea. Marks and Spencer meal deals F-T-Dubz!
I'm still in love with the pastels from China Glaze's Avant Garden collection recently and knew they'd be perfect for creating a girly mani for the day. I've also started playing with my new Winstonia* stamping plates which are incredible and also girly!



I used China Glaze Tart-y for the Party, Life is Rosy, Dandy Lyin' Around and Pink-ie Promise as my base colours.
I used stamps from the first generation Winstonia plates (Winstonia Store/Amazon) W102, W111 and W119 on my thumb, pointer and pinky. If you order the plates from their online store, you can get 10% off (the plates only) with code THENAILASAURUS.
The polish I used to stamp is the BK Matt White from Born Pretty. If you're looking for a decent white stamping polish, look no further. I bought it after I saw it on Katrina's Nail Blog to use as a good white base but I find it slightly too thick for normal application. This is never a bad thing for me. Runny polishes are a dime a dozen, but it's hard to find thick ones for stamping - especially white ones! WIN!
I used some striping tape on my middle and ring fingers to mark off the criss cross patterns before painting over them with BK White and China Glaze Life is Rosy, then peeling off the striping tape.
