Autumn Leaves on Black | Twinsie Tuesday
The Twinsie Tuesday prompt for today is “inspired by the season”. So I have some autumn leaves on black.
I work from home, and these are the colours I can currently see out of my office window, as the leaves on the trees change colour.
I was already wearing Nella Milano Raven Wing – which you’ll see tomorrow – so I set about seeing if I could stamp over it. If it didn’t work out, I was going to start again, with a lighter base colour. But I am very happy with this look.
I tried a number of stamps and colour combinations on my Über Mat and ultimately settled on some maple leaves from Born Pretty Store plate BP-19, which I stamped with Mundo de Uñas Mustard (46) and Orange (13).

Simple but so beautiful <3
And so easy to do though. Just a simple stamping, but it looks striking, I agree 🙂
Your autumn leaves really pop against the black base here. I’m in love 🙂
I love the way the yellow and orange blended together!
Oh Claire, it’s so elegant on black!
I adore this mani!
This really does capture autumn! I’m really impressed with how well those polishes stamped over black 🙂
OMG! How can you be that good at stamping? <3
Hi dear Claire, what a pretty manicure! It is very elegant =)

Absolutely gorgeous, Claire. The colours came up so bright and vibrant over the black, it looks stunning.
