Large Stamping Plate #B review

Pin It Now!


For those who want to get into stamping designs on their nails, there are many different choices of plates at different price points.  I posted about this plate I bought on eBay earlier, but never got around to doing some close up photos, until now.  I'd like to make a note to say that trying to take pics of this plate is a bit of a pain 'cause it's like taking a photo of a mirror.  Try to take photos of a mirror without getting everything reflected in it! 


I took photos of this one outside and I'm sure my neighbours were amused to see me bust out some yoga moves, trying to not get my hands in the shots or show up my skirt.  Finally I propped it up on a bench, placed a black bristle board in front, punched a whole where the camera goes and took pics. The following is the best I could do for now.

I took the photos so that there's some overlap, hoping that it makes it easier to see the designs. And yes, the weird thing in the middle is my camera.





This plate is metal but someone was clever enough to mount it on some plastic (that's about the thickness of felt) which makes it less likely to bend or hurt someone with sharp edges like some other plates have in the past.

I did take more detailed shots, so if anyone wanted to see something more close up, let me know. Some of the designs on this one are exact dupes for Konad, so I'm quite happy with that.  

Till next time!

  2. @Zorbs I'm pretty sure I put in 'large big stamp plate' but you'll find that there'll be a week with no listings for it and then all of a sudden there's a few. You just have to stalk eBay for it. It's soo worth it!
