This is a manicure inspired by talented people in the nail art community. I've seen a couple of manicures recently made to look like old paper or parchment with text stamping, really beautiful and romantic. For my take on the idea I decided to use the clingfilm technique and MoYou stamping plate Princess 11.
I started by painting my nails with My Vampire Is Buff by OPI. Once it was dry I added a coat of Barry M's Goil Foil and, while that was still wet, I dabbed at it with scrunched-up clingfilm (saran wrap). I top coated it and ended up with a nice old parchment effect. Over this I stamped my text in black!
I really like this idea of a letter mani; if you wanted to make it a love letter I think it would look really nice with the clingfilm effect done in white and pink or lilac!
