Happy new year to everyone! Let's start off 2019 with a bang!

I chose this stamping pattern because I thought it would look a little like fireworks if I added riotous colours. The result is a fun, splash of colours in any case!

| [Born Pretty BP-118 stamping plate] |
I did all of this on a silicone nail art mat to start off with. First, I put down a clear base on the mat and then left that to dry. Then I stamped down the pattern from Born Pretty's BP-118 stamping plate onto the clear base polish on the mat, using the pattern on the lower leftmost corner of the plate. I used MdU's Black, which is still the best black stamping polish I have ever used. It produces the cleanest, darkest stamped lines of any stamping nail polish I have ever seen.
After stamping, I added a touch of glitter from Maybelline's Gold's Night Out, just because the bottle was sitting on my desk. XD Then I used a fine brush to paint in the different colours. I've gone into detail on the whole process in a past post
here.

You can see the hint of gold glitter in the picture above. I applied too much glitter for the one that went on my thumbnail. Even though it doesn't look like such here, I actually couldn't see what on earth I was painting in for half of that particular nail, which is why it's a little bit of a mess. It does look like a rather pretty mess to me.
The colours used are as such:
- Sinful Colors' Purple Kraze - a purple creme polish with a pink shimmer that doesn't really show up on the nail and has a satin finish
- Ulta3's Fruit Tingle - a neon pink creme polish
- Ulta3's Citrus - a neon yellow creme polish
- BK 06 - a teal creme glow in the dark polish
For my right hand, I decided to do it all the same colours and forego the glitter for my own sanity.

Yes, I broke the nail on my index finger. :( Anyway, I do think this looks less like fireworks but it's still a colourful and pretty mani, in my opinion.
