The theme for day 8 of Nail Art March, yes I said Day 8 ;), was Candies. Originally I had decided to skip this theme because of the complete and total meltdown I almost had regarding this very manicure right here. Even though I ended up doing this theme two weeks after the fact, when I originally tried I had barely done any stamping. Two weeks of stamping makes a whole hell of a difference!! That's for sure.

Day 20: Daises
I decided to free hand these daises after seeing some gorgeous daisy designs on Instagram. Overall, I am very happy with how these turned out. This is definitely a manicure I would love to revisit in the future and possibly redo in a couple of months. Of course, my thumb turned out the best and that is the one nail that gets half photographed!!
Since I know you are probably super sick of Nail Art March by this point (I know I am ;)) Here is a Tribal Mani to switch some things up.
For this manicure I used the brushed technique for the first time. I'm not totally sure if that is what the technique is called, however, basically what I did was I used a large fan brush and gently brushed colors over one another on top of a white base coat. I then layered the brushed design with stamps from MoYou London Pro Collection 03 Plate.
This might be my favorite manicure of the month. I had this idea floating around in my head and drawn out for over a week before attempting it. For once it came out better than I had ever pictured it!!
Day 22: Spring
Day 22 of the Nail Art March Challenge was Spring. What says Spring more than pastels from China Glaze? I have to say, I am so pleased with all the shades that China Glaze has been coming out for their Spring Collections. However, I hate the finishes on these polishes. They dry a bit matte. However, once I found this out I did not mind as much because I knew what to expect.
For this manicure I used China Glaze Sun of A Peach and Highlight of my Summer. I decorated each nail with floral water decals

As of late I have been super into stamping. Sometimes it seems like I get into one technique, hard, but for only a couple of weeks and then I move on. Eventually, I end up coming back. But for awhile it was water decals, now stamping, and I think I might be moving on to fimo clay next?
Do any of you beauties ever get obsessed with a technique or accessory until you have to master it? I feel like Pokemon, but I gotta catch them all! Let me know. Have a beautiful weekend!!
