You have no idea how frantic the stamping world has been lately with releases! I feel like my wallet and my heart are about to have a major show down. The end result is that my wallet will walk away defeated and small while my heart will declare itself the master of the stamping dominion. Meanwhile stomach will complain about the endless sea of ramen lol! Anyhoo Vivid Lacquer is releasing 4 new plates! I know you are wondering if I'm sure about this release seeing as Anni only recently released a bundle of plates + 2 bonuses not that long ago, but I guess when the creativity is flowing it's flowing! . So let's see what Anni has come up with now...
This plate is hitting the theme of the times right on stride. Everyone these days is all about the lace of course you know from the last release we got our first taste of Anni's take on the trend. This is part duex. I am also seeing a lot of roses rolling out these days. If you have the Winstonia Store Wedding Bliss plate and a few others you will following the trend. Love the floral lace to bits!
This will be a great plate for leadlighting particularly the butterflies! I have one similar image of the butterflies from the Cici & Sisi plates but it isn't nearly as detailed. The abstract droplets in the center bottom row are also similar to the Messy Mansion one's from MM29, but no less beautiful for their similarity.
For me personally this one would be fairly basic. A great plate for decaling and to be sure their is always room for general designs which can be embellished in my collection.
Christmas in July! I love it. I thought about doing a whole month of nail art around this concept this year but I've had extra time this month - boo! It's a shame because I own so many Christmas themed plates. Because I love intarsia knitting patterns this one is so right up my alley!
So are any of these plates favorites? Which ones will you be getting? These plates will retail for $8 USD per plate or $29 USD for the entire bundle. They will be available for preorder tomorrow July 16th at 12PM PST/ 3PM EST in the Vivid Lacquer shop. P.S. If you are still waiting for VL29 (library book plate) most of them have already shipped out so if you haven't received yours yet go ahead and shoot Anni a message over on Etsy and she will be happy to help you out. Happy hunting and I'll see you next post...
Ah the battle between the wallet and the heart! Haha. I love that last Christmas plate! I still don't own any of her plates yet, and I've been really wanting to buy some. I know I could go to the website to find out.. but do you know the dimensions of the individual designs?
ReplyDeleteso true, it's plates galore out there! I got a discount code for the new winstonia's yesterday and noticed they released YET another one called "hunting party" or something like that, the theme is hunting duhhh, it has some animal prints, fish, scales (that is the one that caught my eyes) and other hunting motifs. pretty good for $4.95 + discount code and free shipping.
ReplyDeleteLol an eternal battle..but the heart wants what the heart wants. VL full nail size images are 2.0 x 2.0 cm at the smallest of course they also get larger for some of her other images....
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's because we have such big hearts! ;) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYup I posted about all the new releases of the Winstonia plates as well! I ended up getting them all because I can't help myself and also as you said with a little discount code they are quite affordable :)
