Nail Design: Mixed Zebra Stamp

The weather has been so nice lately, that I felt like doing a spring-y design. Originally I had planned on doing a freehand floral design, but I wound up going with this black and white zebra pattern instead. I used the BM 223 stamping plate. You might notice that there are a few flaws because this is the first time I've done a full nail stamp.

It didn't turn out how I had hoped. The second I applied the top coat, the white faded into the green. So rather than standing out as white, it turned into a lighter green. Unless you look up-close, it just looks like black patches of zebra pattern. I'm just glad I took picture as soon as I did, because they started chipping a few hours later!











In the picture below you can really see how the white faded into the green. Such a shame! 



The colors I used:
Pure Ice "Wild Thing"
Pure Ice "Black Rage"
Pure Ice "Superstar"
Out the Door top coat
