Stamping plate and Hello Kitty box from Born Pretty Store

Today I used this plate for my mani:

The plate is protected by a blue plastic film, which must be removed before stamping. The funny thing is that there's also a layer of film on the backside of the plate. I didn't remove that.  

I prepped my nails with two coats of Maybelline ColoRama 171A, which is grey with silver shimmer. It's probably the prettiest grey I've ever seen, and I got it from my friend, sweet Anastasia from Little World of Coloured Nails.

I stamped with a no name black creme, and I used two different cat designs. The big cat face on my thumb and a cat silhouette like stamp on my ring finger. 

The stamp came out crisp and clear,  exactly how I wanted it to. 
I just used a black striper for two of my nails, and the black glitter is Uninhibited from L. A. Girl Glitter Addict. There's a layer of Poshé top coat to seal it all up. 

Verdict: 
The edges on the plate are a little bit sharp, so be careful so you don't cut yourself. 
I love that there are 12 motifs on one plate, and all the cat designs are adorable. 
I can definitely recommend this plate. The price is $2.99 - minus 10 % off if you use the code JCJ61 when you check out! And there's free shipping too!


The other thing in today's post is this cute Hello Kitty box:

 It's a cotton bud/cotton pad dispenser, and I was surprised to see that it was already full when I got it. I expected to just receive an empty box.

It's a handy box for a nail polish addict for sure!
The box comes right open when you pull on the lid which is great because then there's less risk of denting the fresh mani!

Verdict: 
It's a nice little box, and I adore the Hello Kitty motif on the lid, which is why I chose it in the first place. I can definitely recommend it, if you're just as much into Hello Kitty stuff as I am.
