Day O' Dogs

My little girl turned 9, and it scares me, lol. They really do grow up so fast, I've learned that it's not just a saying. Her birthday party was a dog theme and my nails went right along with it :) Here are the cupcake cones I made that we decorated like dalmations. How freaking cute right?!?!


















And here are the pups. My little girl is in the pink camo. Jack did some of the face painting, and you should have seen the girls faces when I told them he was helping, they were so scared, lol


















And now for the mani. I started with 2 coats of OPI Alpine Snow Matte, and then just used a black nail art pen for the spots. This was a huge hit with the girls, so the next morning.....guess what I was doing? Yep, dog manis for the girls :)

  2. They really do grow up so fast. I have cute photos of my oldest daughter at that age and now she just graduated from college and moved away. Cherish the time when they are that young. I love the Dalmatian nails. Your daughters friends must think you are an awesome mother!

  33. Very creative, dalmatian nails:-) As long as you only put the dalmatian spots on your nails, and not the actual dalmatian spots, you will be awesome to me:-)
