It's been ages since I did stamping, partly because I felt my old stamping plate designs are becoming a little stale. When I got my new stamping plates from Taobao, I thought they were so beautiful & I hadn't yet seen anything like it so I was really excited to post this to show you guys!

Using the plate QA-7, & China Glaze's Calypso Blue with a base coat of OPI's My Boyfriend Scales The Walls, I utilized the entire stamping plate and I think it's looking pretty good. 

Taobao is an amazing website if you're willing to maneuver through all the Chinese with the help of Google translate :P Each plate without shipping was about SGD$0.60 & that is pretty damn cheap if you ask me. They were good quality stamping plates, which honestly surprised me. The stamping selection can be found here.

    This is really amazing! CG's Calypso Blue is perfect for this!

    How much does shipping cost for Tabao? Time to learn how to navigate the site, lol.

      It depends I think on the weight... It was a group order so I'm really not sure. Oh my God yes the site is so difficult to navigate through! >_<

      I found another China site selling 20 (different types?) of the series of plates for 11USD, so I might just jump right in and purchase it, hahaha

    This is so gorgeous I can't stand it! I've been wanting to do a blue & white china design, but I don't have any good blue stamping polishes!
