For my very first reader request (yay!) below are the Chez-Delaney Plates D23 and D25. As before all images are swatched with Wet N' Wild Black Creme.
Above is plate D23. All of the images came out pretty nicely, even the fine lines of The Beatles image, the Playboy bunny and the cartouche. Sorry for the larger pattern images being a little wavy :}
Above is image plate D25. This plate didn't fair as well as D23. I had quite a bit of trouble getting these images to transfer. The Batman image has such a large surface area that it tends to bleed, I would recommend using as little polish as possible and waiting a few seconds in between scraping the excess polish and applying the stamper to the IP. I also had trouble with the Ghostbuster image which doesn't show the actual image of the ghost just the outline of the circle with the cross piece. I'm pretty bummed about that one, I was really looking forward to a Ghostbusters mani. Lastly what should have been the Dharma Initiative image (2nd row, 4th from the left) didn't come out at all. I tried 5 times and could only get the center of the image to transfer. So I appologize to the reader who requested it. On the positive side the V for Vendeta and the Thundercats image came out perfectly!
So there you have it! Thanks again for the request :) I also have a small piece of news to share ...... (wait for it) ...... the better half and I are buying our first home! It's been in the works for the past month and we are finally nearing the end of the buying process. So the next few weeks we'll be packing (lame), cleaning (blech) and then moving lots of heavy boxes (ouch!). I don't expect to be able to post regularly until were in the new house so please forgive my breif hiatus again. I'll have plenty of NOTD's to catch-up with and I'll have my very own art studio so I can get back to the Chez-Delaney image plate swatching. Talk to you again soon!
