This is a long overdue post and was a blast to play with. Due to my time constraints, I usually don’t have a ton of time to do nail art, so stamping plates are perfect for me. It Girls sent over 3 plates for me to play with and try out, and I have to tell you – these are some gorgeous plates with cute designs that were easy to use!
I received all 3 plates and I did a couple random manis using the 3 plates.
It Girls Fashion Plate 101
First up we will look at It Girls Fashion Plate 101! This one gave me a little trouble and I couldn’t pick up images very well. Others have had great success and I’m still a VERY new stamper, so it very well could have been user error. It was a beautiful plate though and I did lift some images just fine.
The shop owner was amazing and walked me through some simple steps to help me out, but some images still didn’t want to play with me. Betty’s Beauty Bombs did a fabulous mani with this plate as did a few other bloggers, which is why I’m leaning to me being new at it. Below are a few examples of Betty’s Beauty Bombs using this plate in multiple manis with great success:

It Girls Fashion Plate 102
It Girls Fashion Plate 102 was a breeze and I got some gorgeous mani’s with this baby! I was able to lift each image easily and transfer it with zero issues. Below are 3 mani’s I did using It Girls Fashion Plate 102.
(While I am unhappy I have a Mentality polish in the photo due to recent events, this was done BEFORE any of it came to light)
It Girls Fashion Plate 103
I saved the best for last. It Girls Fashion Plate 103 has gotten the most love from me. I did 4 mani’s using this plate and each one still gets me looking at the photos and saying “wow” and I’ve used it several times since the initial photos were taken.
Each image lifted with absolute ease, even for someone like me. Full images stamped onto my nail with perfection and I was rather impressed.
That final one is my favorite mani. So happy with how it came out!
It Girls Fashion Plates Overview
Overall I was impressed with these 3 plates. While plate 101 didn’t work amazingly well for me, I am big enough to admit it was probably me. It was also extremely hot each day I attempted that particular plate so that could have played a factor in it. Plates 102 and 103 however were absolutely amazing. If you can only buy 1 plate though, plate 103 is my top choice. It’s amazing.
Each plate has 10 images, so between the 3 there are 30 different stamping images to choose from. For each photo I used Bundle Monster black stamping polish over a variety of polishes and Girly Bits What A Rush Top Coat to finish the mani. My stamper was a squishy Bundle Monster stamper as well.
Price: $13.50 Each

I like the look of these plates. Especially the geometrics. I’m a new stamper too, so I’ll be following your success.
I’m in awe of your gorgeous mani in this post. Amazing! I’ve never tried stamping before, but these make me want to try!
I need to try and stamp more.
These plates look really nice, with a fun variety of images and it seems most of them worked just fine :).
Wowza, your manis are all so gorgeous! Such beautiful polishes and stamping.
Loving the polish colors and the stamps. Worth all of the effort of getting it done.
I love stamping. These plates have some neat designs, too. Sometimes, I’ve found that a particular plate won’t play well with a certain texture of polish, or even a particular type of stamper. Sometimes, switching up the tools will help a plate play nicer.
Yeah that’s probably what the issue was with 101. I’m so newish at it though, I don’t have other stampers really to try to switch it up with
I bet you have the best nails in the land :) I bought a little cheap nail art stamper/stickers all that jazz I am inspired to try it out now hehe
These all look great! I bought some stamping plates but haven’t learned how to use them yet.
Fun designs and your stamping is so crisp and clean.
could you leave a video on how the stamping is done . it does look beautiful
I really love those intricate designs!
Defiendo la libertad de expresión tanto como cualquier búsqueda de enetiurcimienqo espiritual.Lo que no comparto es que este Gurú cobre por presenciar sus meditaciones en un asiento super pullman en un teatro. Uffff.
Your stamping is so perfect
I’m so impressed. I couldn’t do that ever. These are beautiful plates and there’s no way I’d know you were a beginner.
What a great post! I am so jealous of your talent!
The plates are really good and the designs super fun. I already told myself I should try them, directly on my wishlist then :)

I have not stamped in forever! I sorta miss it! Plates have come a long way in the past few years!
Oh, these looks like they stamp really well!!
I am terrible at stamping, but you make everything look so easy :) I know it takes some great technique though.
The designs on these look really fun. And your stamping came out so crisp and clean.
I’ve got 101 and 103 to review, good to know about 101 giving you a few issues. I’ll keep an eye on that one. Lovely manis with those plates though. I can’t wait to try them!
omg teach me your stamping ways! Gorgeous!
All stamping designs look great, loved Cup Cake Polish one most.
I need this plate!!
