Delicate Fairy Tale Nail Art

Hello my friends! I have a stamped design for this post. I don't do stamping designs very often, but I thought of this idea recently and HAD to do it and I'm so glad I did! I absolutely love the way it turned out and I love how delicate and dainty it is.


I started with three thin coats of OPI Don't Touch My Tutu. It's a very sheer white jelly and I'm in freakin' love with it! It's such a clean looking polish. 

After I let that dry I stamped the image onto my nails using Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear White On. The image that I used was from the Bundle Monster plate BM-314. You can see all the plates from that set HERE

I let that dry for a few minutes to avoid smearing, because I then applied OPI Pirouette My Whistle over the stamped image. Pirouette My Whistle is a really nice fine silver glitter with sheer white hex glitters. I've been wanting this polish for a while and finally ordered it online. It probably looked like I was doing some pirouettes as I was dancing around the house because I was so excited when it came. 

After that dried for a little I applied one more coat of Don't Touch My Tutu to create this super cute jelly sandwich look. I love how it sealed the glitter and the design all together. It turned out so nice! I'm so proud of myself for thinking of this!

Then I used Out The Door as my top coat. I think I've come to the conclusion that Out The Door is my all time favorite. It doesn't shrink my polish, it has minimal smearing with nail art, and it's not a gazillion dollars.


This design reminds me of a fairy tale, but it would also be great for weddings. If you think about it a wedding is kind of like a fairy tale, right? It's also a nice palette cleanser if you're tired of wearing super bright or super dark polishes. It's always nice to wear something neutral for a while.


I know stamping is pretty easy, but I did a tutorial for this design anyway since there are a few different layers. You can check it out below if you want!
