How to use a nail stamp!!

DIY Konad Nail Stamp
*
*
*
The supplies you will need are...
~100% Acetone (Removes polish the easiest and cleans rubber stamp and plate the best.)
~2 colors of nail polish that are contrasting. (A light color and a dark color.)
~A quick drying top coat.
~Konad rubber stamp, design plate and scraper.
~100% real hair fiber brush. (The one used to do the DIY French Tips works great!)
 



 


1. Begin with a clean nail OR dry nail polish.
(I  am going to stamp over my new french tips!)



2. Paint the stamping color in a thick line above the design of choice.
3. Make sure your stamp is clean and free of lint and polish. (Rub it with Acetone and a cotton ball.)
4. Using the scraper, scrape the paint across the design. (Do this in one firm motion.)



5. When you are done it should look like this.



6. Next roll the stamp from left to right across the design. (Use one firm motion for best results.)




7. Now line the design up to your nail and in a similar motion press the design in place.
8. Make sure to clean your stamp off after each transfer. (Stamp has to be clean to work.)



9. If all goes well then your stamp will be transferred.
10. If the stamp transferred onto other parts of the nail where it is not wanted, 
just use our brush and Acetone to remove the excess.




11. Repeat steps 1-10 to all the nails as desired.
12. Finish off with a Quick Dry Top Coat and Voila!!
