Ooh La La French Nail Design
This was a bit coincidental, but the white that I used as the base color for three of the nails was Couture Ooh La La French. The two silvery metallic nails are painted with Couture High Maintenance. I added a yellow gradient to my index and middle fingers using a yellow CND additive powder, and then stamped them both with a chandelier pattern from this plate using China Glaze Awaken. I stamped my ring finger with a large floral pattern and Kleancolor Metallic Sapphire. And I stamped my pinky and thumb with one of the fleur de lis images and Konad black polish.
I had a little difficulty stamping the striped patterns onto my nails. My intention was to use one of the striped patterns on my middle finger, but after several attempts I couldn’t quite get the stamp to apply perfectly straight. That’s not a reflection on the plate itself, but rather my stamping skills and my personal anal retentive qualities. LOL
I’m really loving these Messy Mansion plates and can’t wait to try some more designs with them!
I LOVE this look!
Another gorgeous design! I love your blog, I don’t miss a post, ever!

You inspired me to get into stamping on top of my gel polish–now to get my sisters tied down so they have time to come over and let me do their nails with a Lunar New Year (January 31st) or Valentine’s Day theme.
I Love the metallic sapphire! Do you know if the other metallic Kleancolor polishes stamp as nice?
Yes, most of them stamp great. I bought a set of the Kleancolor metallics on Amazon and love them for stamping. The only one that doesn’t work well is the white.
Awesome! Thank you.
love this :)
