Adventures in Stamping - Large Flowers

Aloha! Today's Adventures in Stamping theme was large flowers, which is also a theme for the Spring Challenge later in the week but I have something different planned for that! I used my Essence plate for this hibiscus flower. The gradient was done with a coat of white, topped with a coat of Sinful Colors Cinderella, and sponged with China Glaze Blue Years Eve (thanks Miagi!) I stamped with 17 Nail Extras Nail Tip Whitener, and it's not quite opaque enough. Can anyone recommend a good white stamping polish that's available in the UK or do I really have to get a special stamping one? Not that I'm tight or anything...



I like it, I just wish the flower was more opaque. Oh well, you live and learn!
