A Little Birdie Told Me
Wednesday, January 5, 2011
I have to ask this, since it's 5 days into the new year... who is still sticking to their resolutions? I'm one of those people that are so bad at resolutions that I never even got around to making any this year. :-P I've been SO busy lately, which I love, but it makes it hard to make as much time as I'd like to for everything in my life, and I hate spreading myself so thin.
Today's nail design might look familiar to those of you that have played with the page layout program 'Pages' from Apple before. These cute little birdies were on one of the templates for a thank you card, and, after the suggestion of my co-worker Justin, decided that they indeed WOULD be lovely little nail art designs!! I love their simplicity and retro vibe & color scheme.
I used American Apparel Cotton as a base, with Essie Alligator Purse for the body of the birds, and American Apparel Raccoon for the tails and legs. For the speech bubble, I used American Apparel Trenchcoat. Topped everything off with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat.
And, I finally got around to looking through some of my photos from Christmas, and this one cracked me up, even though I'm making an odd face, I had to share. Zach is 130 lbs. Zach also thinks he is a lap dog. Hilarity ensues. At least he's warm, and I'm glad ONE of us is comfortable?! lol

ReplyDeleteAwww-Zach found someone to snuggle with :) - how do you think we like 2 of them on the bed!!
ReplyDeleteOMG that dog is *huge*! I didn't really make any resolutions but am trying to drink more water and move more (managed 10 mins on exercise bike - boy it's dull)
ReplyDeletelove the little bird and your sleepy dog ❥
ReplyDeleteLove this manicure! :)
ReplyDeleteHa, I'm still sticking to my resolution (it's an easy one this year) :D
Hilarious and extra cute the last photo :)
Cute nails! :)
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's a big "lap" dog and you don't have a big lap!
ReplyDeleteThe nails are fab!
Cute nails and cute pups! I couldn't imagine 140 lbs 'resting' on me! On my resolutions, I only had two this year and so far so good. 1) Not do everything for my son anymore. He's almost 19, he needs to take care of his responsibilities himself. If he asks for help, I'll be there, but otherwise...and this is HARD! 2) Start Weight Watchers, which begins next Wed at my work.
ReplyDeletelol aww super cute, bot the mani and the photo!
ReplyDeleteI love this design!
ReplyDeleteLOL @ the dog
I think that you're allowed to make an odd face- you have a PONY sitting on your lap!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good holiday- and I love the little birdies! Warming, toasty colors, too!
That color combo works perfect!
ReplyDeleteAnd LOL at the doggie!
cute design, love the colors :)
ReplyDeleteWOW that's a huge dog O_O (weights much more than I do XD)
So far I have stuck to my resolution to get to work on time, and more importantly...leave work on time! I love this design! The trenchcoat color grabbed me, very retro.
ReplyDeleteGods, I thought it was bad when my 55lb Basset hound decided to play lap dog!
ReplyDeletebwahahaha love the doggy picture! i miss my giant lab "lap" dog. and the tweety bird nails are dope!
ReplyDeleteCute pictures! You are very talented. What kind of dog is Zach? He looks like a chocolate lab, but I've never seen one that big.
ReplyDeleteYour nails are adorable!
ReplyDeleteI think the comfortable one would definitely be you. A fuzzy cuddler, a warm purple sweater and super duper fuzzy purple socks. AWESOME.
ReplyDeleteYou both look so freaking adorable <3
