Butterfly nails

Hi,
Today I'll show you a new stamping manicure I made with A07 image plate.
I started with two coats of Illamasqua -Faux and then I stamped the two parts
of the butterfly on my middle and ring finger with Konad Special White. The thin, black 
line that can be seen there is because I wanted to stamp with black at first, but then I 
changed my mind and didn't remove the layer of polish. I applied some gold sequins
 on its wings and I finished with a clear top coat. What do you think?

 

I recreated this manicure using a pink base colour, you can see it here.

Love it!
When I first saw the butterfly I wondered how you got it to look 3D. it looks like the wings are lifting off the nails. Then I realised it was due to the black which is peeking out from the edges and not a shadow as I first thought.
That effect could be put to good use to make something look 3D... I must remember that or better still pin it to remind myself. :)
