Blue and green metallic stamping (52 Week Challenge)

I’m sticking to the single prompt again for this week’s 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge. The two choices are Ikat and metallic. I’ve not ever done an Ikat pattern, so probably should have done, but I was short of time so went with metallic.

Although the photos don’t really show it, both these polishes are metallic. The base is Barry M Magnetic Blue. I haven’t used a magnet on it, as I think it looks great on its own.

The stamping is using Aglaia, from the 2True Metallica collection, all of which are brilliant for stamping.

I picked this snazzy pattern on the MoYou Nails Pro VII board. The photos don’t seem to show the metallic as vibrantly as it looks in real life.

My husband loved this manicure, but it didn’t last very long. Probably less than half a day in the end as I didn’t think it went with what I was wearing this evening and so ended up changing it.
