Butterfly effect

Hello!

I dedicate this post to my lovely dog, Timmy, who's been with me for over 17 years (!).
I feel really sad because she's starting to get more and more weak, and seems like it's time for her to go. But I can't let her. Not yet.
This is the photo of the two of us together, today.
I have to share it with somebody, and I guess my readers won't mind. Plus, I know many of you nail bloggers are also animal lovers. :)


Now, I would like to share this pretty mani with you.
As a base I used Catrice Sweets for my Sweets, the polish which I used to hate because it took three coats for full opacity. But every time I put it on, I like it more than the last time. Barby pink color is the reason for that.

I love girly stuff and I search for excuses for buying silly things like Hello Kitty lip balm (I really need another lip balm, I own only 20) or pink pen (my other 20 pens suddenly ran out of ink). But with this polish, I have no excuse: I love it because it's so girly and so lovely.





For the butterflies I used some no name franken that was just a bit darker than Catrice so the final effect wasn't that visible from the distance, but it was subtle and gentle, just like a butterfly.

I love this mani! Makes me think of that old Aqua song... Yeah, you know which song!  :)

Bye

  5. Wow! 17 godina. Budi sretna što si tolike godine dijelila sa njom, toliko sjećanja i veselih dana, a vjerujem da će ih biti još mnogo. Uvijek se teško pomiriti s gubitkom ljubimca, ali nećemo sad o tome...
    Divna slika.

  10. 17 years! That's amazing! I can't imagine how hard this process is for you & you have my sympathy. I accidentally got my first dog a few years ago & I love him so much that it actually hurts my heart.
