Hi everyone! Happy
Tuesday! (:
Today I have something awesome to share with you all. A while back, KKCenterHk contacted me and
asked if I’d like to review some products of theirs. I said HECK YES! Best of all, KKCenterHk let me choose which
two products I’d like to review. I chose
two of their stamping plates. Thus, I’ve
got a nice review and some product shots to share with you today.
Before I start, I just wanted to highlight these
stamps from the package sent to me. Aren’t they adorable? I’ve kept the packaging just because they’re
so cute. Anyway…
The two plates I chose are numbers 52 and 53. I loved that they're chock full of
letters. I've always wanted to stamp
with letters! The possibilities are
endless!
Being the nice people that they are, the KKCenterHk team
sent me a bonus stamper and scraper.
Though I love my Konad stamper, I'm always open to trying new stuff.
Once out of the packaging, it’s obvious that the plates are
of the same size as Konad plates (or Bundle Monster plates for that matter).
They’re also covered in a thin film, which I’ve removed here. Unlike the Konad plates (yet like the BM
plates), they aren’t lined with cardboard and are extremely sharp. I laid them on some paper towels to do this
though and had no problems.
To start my review, I layered on two coats of Essie
Watermelon, a vibrant hot pink crème. Because Watermelon is so vibrant
my camera skews the color a bit as usual. In reality it's much more
pink. Watermelon usually wears terribly on me – I don’t know why, it
just
chips like a b*tch – but I thought it would make the perfect underwear
for my
stamping!
I then stamped using Sally Hansen White On and Jordana Black
and both plates. The scraper was much
better than my Konad scraper, or even a credit card. It didn’t scrape
the plates, and with light
pressure it removed all of the polish on my design. The stamper was a
different story. The one I used was much less flexible and
sticky than my previous one. I ended up
switching to my double-ended Konad one halfway through the design.
This was the first time I stamped with Jordana Black, and I
have to say I’m pretty happy with how opaque it is! I call these my typewriter nails, though they just as easily
could’ve been alphabet soup nails with a different color scheme. Oh well, maybe next time! (:
Overall I have to say I’m very satisfied with my attempt at
stamping and with the KKCenterHK products.
Though the stamper was a bust, the rest of the products were pretty
great.
You can buy the stamper/scraper set as well as plates 52 and
53 from KKCenterHK’s website. Use the

I'll be posting a more personal post soon. Until then, have an awesome week everyone!
