I can't believe it! I've loved Maniology for YEARS. Back when they were BundleMonster. I discovered stamping in March of 2012. My first BundleMonster order was in April of 2012. So when they came out with the Brand Ambassador program I really wanted to join, but I'm not a big presence on social media. I don't TikTok. I barely Instagram. Ok, I Facebook a lot, but that's just friends and family. Heck, I can barely keep this Blog updated! (sorry!) So I dithered about it for over a year if I should apply or not.

Then my local library asked me to do a nail art program and I *really* wanted to include stamping. Yes, I'll cover other things that you don't need extra tools for, but I LOVE stamping and want to share it with everyone! But how terrible would it be for me to do a program, show everyone how to do this cool technique, then tell them they need all these extra tools for it. It would be nice to give them a coupon code to help them get started. Maniology does do a free kit for beginners (just pay shipping) but for those that want more I want to give them a code. Becoming a Brand Amabassador would give me a coupon code for friends. So I did it. Even though I'm not some big YouTuber or anything I decided to try. 

THEY ACCEPTED ME!!! I am now a Maniology Brand Ambassador. What that means is I have a coupon code, FOXFIRE10 , and anyone who uses it gets 10% off at Maniology.com. Full Transparency here, I also get a commission based on how much my code is used for. But MBA or not, I do love their stamping plates and tools. So you might see an uptick on my activity now, and it might be more directed at Maniology. 

Crystal Stamping Kit

 

I swear I posted about this before, but I simply can't find the post. I guess I never actually did so here we go!

Back in 2016, I saw a video someone took at CosmoProf. It was s demo for a stamping technique, but instead of applying polish, it applied crystals to your nails in certain patterns. Great for getting perfect lines and super fast! The company was Pave and after that one video I saw once, I never heard about them again. Jump ahead about 4 years and I find these kits at my local Walmart by Salon Perfect. I'm not sure what happened to Pave, they still have a website but most of their stamping templates are sold out as of this writing. I have no idea if Salon Perfect and Pave are related (I really don't think so) but I am LOVING this kit. And at about 10 bucks each I got both the crystal and pearl set. 

Quoth the Raven...

Yeah, it has been a while. Life got messy, as it does, and though it's not less messy, I feel the need to paint my nails again. I've always loved Halloween and now that I'm working in a library (OMG I love this job so much!!) I wanted something literature-ish and also Halloween-ish. Edgar Allan Poe it is! I don't really have an old paper colored polish, so my pastel yellow "Unicorn" from Sinful had to do the job. I stamped with a brown Sinful Colors that I've forgotten the name to. I think it had "rock" in the name. I really like that brown over the pale yellow. It gives the old paper with faded ink effect I was going for. I stamped over that with BundleMonster's stamping black polish. BundleMonster has changed their name to Maniology, so I'm going to mess that up quite a bit before I get used to the new name. The stamping plate is from when they were still BundleMonster. So the plate I have is BM-S248 but they have remade it so now it's M64.

Old BM plate

But it looks like M064 combines 2 plates, Poe and Vampires, so its like 2 in one now! That about does it for now. I have a Maniology order coming in soon so I hope to share new plates with you soon!
