Nagels lakken en konad deel 2

PLEASE READ THIS DESCRIPTION IF YOU ARE NOT DUTCH! Of als je wilt weten waar je het kunt kopen!

I noticed that I get a lot of views on this video, also from international people! I'm Dutch and this video is in Dutch, so I decided to add a little English summary of all the tips and tricks in this video.

Tips:
Don't use the scraper you usually get, it scratches your plates and it doesn't work so well. I prefer using an old plastic card, this is flatter and doesn't scratch your plates.
Work fast! Make sure everything is in place to be able to grab them as quick as possible and just try to work as fast as you can.
Don't put too much pressure on the stamp thingy when you try to pick up the pattern from the plate, then you will push all the nail polish out of the pattern and you won't get anything on your stamp. Try different amounts of pressure until you get the best result!
You don't have to work really neat while stamping, you can always clean up afterwards with a q-tip and some nail polish remover!
I usually go about 3-4 times before I clean the card and image plate while stamping.
Don't cover the whole pattern with nail polish, only at the point where you'll start with the plastic card. While doing that, you will spread the nail polish over the plate and it saves you some nail polish!
Don't forget to clean your plate and scraper when you're done, if you leave the nail polish on it, it will be pretty hard to remove it the next time!
I actually don't use the nail polish from Konad but just any nail polish that I like! Try to find polishes with a good coverage, holographic ones are also very nice to use!
When you apply a top coat, try to avoid "scratching" over your nails with the brush to prevent the pattern to smudge. Use enough polish on your brush and try to cover your nail in one stroke.

I bought my image plate at a Dutch webshop called enchantra and it is from the brand Konad. My stamp thingy is from a brand called Essence, which you can get in several European countries and I believe they sell it at Ulta in the USA as well!

Good luck stamping and thanks for watching!
