I can't believe it! I found a purple that my camera likes!! It actually shows this purple as it is supposed to be! Am thinking maybe it's because of the blue sky background? Who knows-who cares! I am excited about this color.
What we have for you today is CND Dark Amethyst. It is from their Fall/Winter 2011 kit. It has two colors and one effect in it. I got it for the colors. The effect is 24 karat gold flakes-not for me-but maybe one day I'll surprise you and wear it!
Here is your silly bottle shot showing one of my new stamping plates, XL plate A. These plates rock!
I started with Dark Amethyst. This is a deep eggplant purple creme. The formula was a little thin, but not too bad. Here are the indoor and outdoor shots.

Isn't that pretty? I think so! Then I stamped with my new XLplate A and Nails Inc Lowndes Square, which is a pretty soft lilac. Then topped it off with my funky french. Here are the results.

I just love these two purples together. I am so happy my camera cooperated on this post! I thought about stamping another color on top for an accent, but the other purple I chose just didn't show so I just left it simple like this.
What do you guys think? Aren't these purples divine?
