My niece's birthday was this last July. I can't believe it has taken me this long to share my mani from her party. I was asked to make her cake, YAY!! She was having an Ariel party and wanted an Ariel head. Sure thing niece!! I was excited to make this cake. But she was kind of a pain in the ass. I had never used the Ariel pan before so I was learning as I go. I have done character cakes before. Sadly, the indentations for the lines on this particular pan didn't match up to the picture. So I had to wing it a little bit. I think it came out pretty good. I am not too happy with the eyes, but that is where there were some discrepancies with the pan lines and the picture.
I decided it would be really fun to have some fun birthday party nails. Normally, I make cupcakes for parties. Since I wasn't doing any for my niece, I decided cupcake nails were a must!
These were super simple to do. I did a pink french tip and then added the green stripes with a nail art brush. Using a dotting tool I created the "frosting" with white then added the green "sprinkles" and pink heart "topper". Cute and simple. I am really happy with how these turned out. I will definitely be doing this design again :)
