The base color is KBShimmer Black Pearl, from their new Birthstone Collection, available today. Black Pearl was provided for review, regular swatches coming soon. All the birthstone polishes are a combination of flakies and holo. This is 2 coats of Black Pearl, which went on very smoothly. It wasn't thick or lumpy, and dried to a fairly smooth finish that needed very little top coat to be perfectly smooth. The flakies in Black Pearl give off a gold look, so I thought it would pair perfectly with Essie Good As Gold for the stamping.
Starting at the index nail, I used a fireworks design, then a clock striking midnight on my middle finger, champagne flutes on my ring finger nail, and a streamers/confetti design for my pinkie nail.
I also used a different design for my thumbs, which I just now realized I don't have any pictures of. The design I used though is sort of a fireworks burst/shooting stars type look. On Festive Plate 05, it's the design to the immediate left of the clock design. I kind of slapped it on my thumbs, not sure of which design to put on them, and I was really surprised with how much I liked it. I want to do a full nail look now with just that one image. I think it would work well as an abstract, everyday look.
