First Happy International Happy Day, Spring Equinox, and National Macaroon Day! I have yet another delicious release of nail art stamping plates to share with you from our hardworking peeps over at MoYou London. This time they are releasing six new plates around the upcoming Easter holiday from the Festive Collection. If you recall the Festive Collection thus far has covered the Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years holidays so far. I suspect that even if you aren't a fan of the holiday or don't celebrate it for religious purposes you will find several of these plates worth having. So let's take a look at what they have come up with this time...
I see a little bunny has joined the line-up at the Festive table ;)
MoYou has done this a lot lately; creating small plate filled with characterizations of whatever the theme is of the plate. This time for me it's working well. My eyes are especially drawn to the stylized scribbled carrot, the basket, and the bow topped easter egg. This plate is absolutely adorable and spot on!
Even more stylized images, the flowers are kinda blah, but I love the squiggidy bunny squealing on the right, and the bells and other elements here.
Has there ever been a XL infinity plate I haven't liked from MoYou? I think the answer is no. I love this plate! Check the unique basketweave elements and tree that is growing eggs. Plus bunnies everywhere. I will say though the patterns here are attainable on several other plates. I can think of at least 4 that I've seen elsewhere on Bunny Nails plates, Vivid Laquer plates, Cici & Sisi plates, Bundle Monster, and Winstonia plates. So if you are looking to avoid dupes this may be a case where despite the plate being extremely original the individual elements are not...
Favorite plate of the bunch! The banners are weak - sorry but you could create all of these using scotch tape and pre-existing images that you already have. ,But what I love here - the calico bunnies, the stylized abstract egg, the basket, wheat, the bunny from Beatrix Potter unless I miss my mark, and the piled up eggs. Great job Moyou....
Easter tribal! Nothing here to say except yes!
More tribal! I am mad because this plate has images that are not on the XL version therefore I must have it as well. Particularly because of that Faberge looking egg in the corner and the smaller Happy Easter stamp.
So despite my words of critism regarding some elements of these plates I think as a whole this expansion is brilliant. I have to point out similarities when I see them because not everyone wants a dupe. Also if you own 1,000 plates you want plate 1001 to be worth the dollars you are shelling out to get it especially with consideration to international shipping. I think these are worth it especially if you don't own any Easter themed plates (this is clearly not me as I own lots). Despite my own tendency toward plate hoarding I see enough individuality here to also want to purchase several of these plates if not all of them. Plates as usual will be releasing Friday morning and retail for 4.99 Euro. You can purchase plates from the MoYou London website here. Thanks for reading and see you next post...
i didn´t order any of the easter collection plates but two sci fi and two greek plates, they are sooo pretty *.*
ReplyDeleteOhh nice! I actually haven't gotten any of the greek plates though I want them desperately. Instead I got a few plates that were on my wishlist for a while + the new easter ones because they were too perfect.
