Ive been searching through this thread to try and find the answer but with no luck. If someone else has already asked this im sorry...but ive been having some real problems with stamping and wondered if someone could help. I could a set of konad stamp plates, a scraper and stamp the other day and I cant seem to grasp it. It doesnt matter what brand of varnish I try with (I dont have konad though) I cant get the stamper to pick up the design, and if it does its only a line.

Anyone got any handy hints? X

The majority of normal nail polishes don't work as they are not acrylic based. There is a thread with other polishes that Geeks have tried and had success with but as a newbie I would advise to get the real macoy first and go from there ;)

It's from the New holiday plates, it's actually a baby shower print ans has a dummy on it but I wiped that off of my stamper before applying to the nail x

Hey Konad users ... This was posted on FB this morning !

Have you tried using CND Vinylux instead of the Konad Special Polish?! OMG, it's amazing - SO much easier to pick up your design! As a result, I'm a little bit hooked on stamping at the moment... :)

Has anyone tried it?

This is amazing!! Just tried it with the 'pink bikini' so cute!! Added my pic :-D

Shellac works really well? But you do need to be fast. And konad varnish do work the best. I brought minis ones so cheaper

Found another couple of stamp-able polishes this is NYC Foil Explosion in Aqua Mystic gives a subtle stamp, Powder of elements from the same range also works in a pink foil effect.
 
does anyone have any advice on positioning and how to best centre up the french designs?
 
Not sure if this has been memtioned before but there is a great FB group called Adventures in Stamping. Fantastic work being shown there. Every Sunday is a Challenge stamping mani. This Sunday all posts should be examples of Double or shadow stamping. Over 2000 members!
