So cute! Are the snowman and snow globe stickers or is that reverse stamping?

Please share your reverse stamping secrets!! I've got regular stamping down, but never been able to get reverse to work for me.

Dec 12 2021, 6:02 pmI learned from Kelli Marissa Tip #1: Be sure you're using a clear stamper so you can see if you screw it up and can redo before putting in on your nail. Tip #2: Use a dotting tool (or toothpick) instead of a brush to add the other colors and dot them on. When I accidentally paint them on, like with brushstrokes, I always rip up the outlines below. Tip #3: Instead of using that sticky base coat stuff that she uses, I stamp onto tacky polish: either the second coat of a color or a topper or whatever while it's still tacky. And of course, when it's super super dry, I float the topcoat over it carefully so I don't smear it all! I'm hardly good at it yet but I it looks better and better each time I do it! Can't wait to see your future stamping manis!

And totally agree on putting off to-do list items. That's usually why I paint my nails to begin with. 😅

Dec 12 2021, 4:20 pmReverse stamping! Part of what's so great about stamping is that it can be really fast or, if you're trying to put off doing real things on your to do list, it can also take for freaking ever! Ha!
