The Stamp that kicked my ass

I know I've told you that I got in several new sets of plates to stamp with.  Yesterday, I organized my collection into plastic sleeves and a three ring binder. Any guesses as to how many I have accumulated in the last 7 months??  163! Isn't that crazy? I know it's nowhere near the numbers of some of my stamping friends, but it's still impressive to me!

Today we have the stamp that kicked my ass.  Up to this point, I haven't had too much trouble getting a nice design pattern on my nails.  This one was so intricate and complicated in its design that I smeared it all to hell.  I refuse to take it all off and start over.  I just don't care that much.  I wore this for three days and if you look from far away, it actually looks pretty cool.

First up, we have my baby Checkers doing her yoga pose showing you today's bottle shot.  Yes that is her back leg up near her head.  She does it ALL the time. Even eats that way.  It's her yoga pose.


As you can see, she is very interested in today's polish colors.  We have Zoya Holly and Zoya Envy.  I started with Holly, which is new for this season.  It is a bright Christmas green shimmer.  I just love it.  Here are your sun, shade and indoor shots.

Isn't it pretty? You guys know I'm a sucker for green! Next I grabbed my new Red Angel plate RA 108 and my Konad special white and made a mess!  I topped it off with an Envy funky french.  Here are the results.

I thought about not showing the close up shots.  But the pinky came out the best, although wonky on one side.  I love how the shimmer of the green shows through the white stamp in the sun.  How cool is that? No matter what I tried on my 10 fingers to get this design perfect, I just couldn't do it!  My usual roll on motion didn't work on this one.  I feel silly being defeated by a stamp!

What do you guys think?  Is this a fail or not?
