Description:
I dont know if you guys are familiar with nail stamping or not but I ran across it when I was in Las Vegas this summer. Since then I've ordered several designs of it online. For this swap you will trade 2 (two) of the image plates with your partner. The plates can be new or gently used. If you send gently used plates please make sure they are clean and polish free. They can be name brand or generic brand but they must be the metal plate stamps with multiple designs on them. Due to these plates being light this will be a international swap. No recent 1 or 3's. Lowest rating of 4.9.

Might be a good idea to include links to sites that sell nail plates or explain more about what they are. :)

@robotlove They are metal plates that have designs on them, like in the picture. First you put nail polish over the design then you then use a scraper and stamp like the ones here http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180421057950&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT You use that to pick up the nail polish and then you use a semi-firm rolling action to put the image onto your nail. It's basically to transfer the design from the plate onto your nails. Here is a youtube about what it is and how to do it:

You can buy the plates online or at some local events like county fairs, expos, etc. Some beauty supply places might have them.

@rachelcdoyle surprised you sold them! I use mine all the time! I did just buy a ton of nail supplies from a lady who sold them on ebay, but her name wasn't Rachel Doyle. If that's not your real name and it was yours that I bought I'd giggle a little. :)

Oh here is a picture of my newest mani I did with the stamps last night. I used one nail with a fuschia color stamped image and the rest with white.
