KD8 Image Plate



Chose this plate because of the eyes, those eyes were also in an A series image plate but I wasn't able to purchase that so it's really cool that KD has it ^_^
The lady bug is cute, makes me want to make Glow Bug inspired nails.
The other images on this plate I believe I already have them on one of my XL plates, will update this when I get the time to rummage through my plate stash, lol
There is a slight imperfection on this plate, if you'll look at the pic of the plate you'll see there's an etched spot which is sort of in between the lady bug and the flower. It's not a problem though since it doesn't affect the other images. Oh and the '8' is upside down, ^_^

KD7 Image Plate




Fruits and ice cream :)
The only reason I got this plate is because of the cute ice cream design, the other fruit images (except for the pineapple) I already have them on my XXL image plate full of fauxnad designs.
It couldn't hurt to have these extra fruits since using my XXL plate can be a bit of a pain, I don't really have a space for my nail art stuff so most of the time I do my stamping in front of my laptop and I just use my lap as a table... hahaha

As you can see this plate is perfect, I actually prefer the grapes here than the BM05 image plate. I wish I'd be inclined to do fruit themed nails so I can use all of the designs here. ^_^

KD1 Image Plate






This is the plate I used on the first post I did here, check this link if you'd like to see.
I wish all stamping plates that does not have full nail designs should contain at least nine images like this one :)
*wishful thinking* LOL
One of the main reasons I decided to get some KD plates is because I find Hello Kitty to be the most kawaii feline ever!
If you'll look at this plate you get different Hello Kitty poses, other Sanrio characters, a cute hand-bag and a heart.
This plate is perfect, etchings are great and specially the designs most of them are not very common.

Konad Q1 Dupe MLS301 ^_^



Ever since I saw a nail art pic of the Konad Q1 plate I immediately fell in love ♥♥♥ with it, so like a normal image plate addict I browsed the world wide web where I could purchase it. The results were somewhat disappointing,
first no one was selling it here in the Philippines,
second the price of the Q1 plate is quite high than the other Konad plates which I think it's because of its exclusivity to Konad UK.
 So my heart sank and dilemma, dilemma, dilemma... I don't really want to spend more than a thousand pesos for one 5cm plate even if it's an original Konad plate.
I had to hope that someday someone will make a dupe of it like the other Konad plates, but of course hoping for good quality if not great. 
My hope was lifted when someone at Adventures in Stamping saw a dupe plate on Ebay, which is the MLS301 plate. So all I had to do was patiently wait until it becomes available here.
I didn't have to wait very long, I was chatting with one of my favorite image plate seller MyOnline Shop and asked if they would ever carry the Q1 dupe plate and at that time she just said that she did have the plate on-hand but she only had a few pieces. I asked if she would sell one to me and that I would pay for it ASAP!
I was happy that I got this plate, it's clearly one of my favorites! Though it's not as perfect as the original Q1 plate, I still love it!

I couldn't make a real comparison but from what I've gathered from those who has the Q1 plate that the dupe has thicker etchings and has extra candies on the side, aside from that everything looks pretty much the same. ^_^
