Nail Stamping Decal Technique--Sesame Street!

Today I was finally successful in creating nail decals using my nail stamping tools, it actually was fun to do!
I stamped over Mentality "Hard Candy", an awesome purple holographic polish. I love purple, this polish is perfect, it applies nicely and two coats does the job!. I stamped a lacey design on my nails before I did the decals. Im going to see my niece and nephew tomorrow and I thought they'd get a kick out of Sesame Street
My pinky has M&Ms on it because I really wanted to try that as a decal, I used to work at mars candy and actually put the M on the candy, too funny, right/?

Revlon Nail Art Chalkboard Polishes

I found Revlon nail art chalkboard polishes in Rite Aid yesterday! They were having a 40% off sale on all Revlon products so how could I resist? I loved how they looked on the display. I quickly put it on today, using the blue and purple chalk part of the polishes:
I didnt put any top coat on because I didnt want to lose the chalk look. These polishes retail for 8.99 , but if you shop at Rite Aid a lot like me you get a discount off of that.
The black part of the polish went on great! It covers in one coat although I used two. I think I was a bit heavy handed on the chalk part, it takes some practice. I think I might see if stamping with these will work...
